Regrouting for homes and businesses in Sutton Common
If you’ve been scrubbing grout that won’t come clean, the stain is often in the grout itself. New grout is the fix that lasts and you can pick a different colour while you’re at it. Typical jobs include grout in corners that has cracked and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, on tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom floors.
London homes include a lot of flats, conversions and mansion blocks, so a bathroom is often directly above a neighbour’s ceiling. In Sutton Common, that is a good reason to put tired sealant and grout right early.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
How to look after the new joints
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time, long before the grout does.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
How the visit works
At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself usually takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on how much there is to do. In Sutton Common, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.
Bathroom floors
Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It wears and darkens over time.
Questions from Sutton Common
Do you work for landlords with property near St Helier 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.
Can worn sealant in a flat in Sutton Common cause a leak downstairs?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
Is it messy?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
Where are you based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Do you grout the corners?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They flex and grout cannot take that movement.
Do you come to Sutton Common?
We do. Sutton Common is part of the area we cover.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or just the joints that have failed.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get a clear time from us before we go. The grout and sealant both need to cure before they get wet.
Regrouting around Sutton Common
London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early. London’s water is hard, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps.
Homes close to St Lawrence Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Managing a site like Abbey Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. Letting a property close to St Helier station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Why act early in Sutton Common
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and often a few days without a shower. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Putting it right early is much less trouble for homes in Sutton Common.
