Regrouting in Tapnage, Hampshire
Tiled areas in Tapnage need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
Regrouting in Tapnage, done properly
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, without damaging the edges of the tiles. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, and the corners get fresh silicone. We are often asked to deal with grout washed out of a shower and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, on bathroom wall tiles, wet rooms and shower walls.
Around Tapnage, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tapnage and across Hampshire.

Why it’s worth doing now in Tapnage
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Around Tapnage, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
Why Tapnage clients choose us

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it because they wear grout away.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Tapnage, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

What regrouting looks like in Tapnage
Tapnage 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, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as The Henry Cort Community College, 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. Rented homes near Swanwick station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Other services in Tapnage
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom floors
New floor grout makes a big difference to how a bathroom looks. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
Bathroom wall tiles
We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on size. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
