Swanmore Regrouting

How we handle regrouting in Swanmore
If you’ve been scrubbing grout that won’t come clean, the discolouration has normally soaked into the grout. Replacing it is the lasting answer, and it’s a chance to change the colour too. We work on bathroom floors, shower walls and kitchen splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked or crumbling grout lines and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease.
Even in a smaller place like Swanmore, bathrooms and kitchens see heavy daily use. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Landlords and letting agents in Swanmore can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
Have any tile that moves checked right away. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it so early action pays.
Common problems we fix in Swanmore
Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
If you let a flat or house near Botley station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Surface by surface
Wet rooms
New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It cannot fix waterproofing below the tiles.
Corners and edges
The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout there would crack.
Swanmore homes and their sealant
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 live in an older home near Church of St Barnabas, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Managing a site like Swanmore Church of England Aided Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
