Regrouting in Sulham
Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. If you have grout in corners that has cracked and crumbling grout between the tiles, we can put it right, on wet rooms, bathroom wall tiles and kitchen splashbacks alike.
Somewhere as small as Sulham, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

How we quote for regrouting
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number and length of the joints
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Sulham homes and their sealant
Sulham has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Denefield School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. Floor-to-wall and bath joints are sealed, not grouted.
Corners and edges
Corners flex as the building moves, so they get silicone, not grout.
Your questions about regrouting in Sulham
Do you work in hotels near Sulham?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Do you work for landlords with property near Pangbourne station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. The old sealant always comes out first.
Do you grout the corners?
Silicone. Grout is for the joints between tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Do you come to Sulham?
We do. Sulham is part of the area we cover.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
What else we do in Sulham
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. In a small place like Sulham, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
Getting a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sulham
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
Leave it or put it right?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out and stains often come back through. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Older cottages and farmhouses around Sulham can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Grout in corners that has cracked
