How we handle regrouting in Sullington
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. If you’re dealing with grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and grout in a colour the owner wants to change, we can help.
Around Sullington, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Sullington, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
What regrouting looks like in Sullington
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Sullington. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Mary, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Rented homes near Amberley station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Common problems we fix in Sullington
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout and stick to it. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, which is when replacing it makes sense.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
If you look after a building such as Thakeham Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so its grout takes the most punishment. It normally fails first.
Bathroom wall tiles
Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
What sealant work cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Your questions about regrouting in Sullington
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Amberley station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you take on hotel work around Sullington?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
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.
How long should I wait before showering?
We’ll tell you on the day. It depends on the grout and the sealant used, so follow the time we give you.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
How do I get a quote for regrouting in Sullington?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What affects the quote in Sullington
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The product the joint needs
- Whether the work is at height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The size of the job
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the property is
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.
