Terriers Regrouting
Our applicators work in Terriers on raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Grout washed out of a shower
How we handle regrouting in Terriers
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. Common call-outs are for grout that’s cracking and breaking up and greasy, stained grout behind the hob, across tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles.
Homes around Terriers range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Check the corner silicone every few months
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so it’s normally the first thing to need attention, long before the grout does.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone is not enough, so it’s worth acting early.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Terriers
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Terriers. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Schools such as The Royal Grammar School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of Saint Francis, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Your questions about regrouting in Terriers
I let a flat near High Wycombe station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you take on hotel work around Terriers?
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.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How do I get a quote for regrouting in Terriers?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. Darker grout can hide marks and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
How long should I wait before showering?
The wait depends on the materials and how warm the room is. We will give you a time to follow at the end of the visit.
When to call us in Terriers
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, which is why we check the tiles first.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
If you let a flat or house near High Wycombe station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How the job changes by surface
Shower walls
The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We replace it and renew the silicone at the edges.
Bathroom floors
Cracked floor grout can point to movement underneath. We check the tiles before regrouting.

What affects the cost of regrouting
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Any working-time requirements on site
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Roughly how big the job is
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The visit itself normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on how much there is to do. Parking around Terriers is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why deal with it now?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and often a few days without a shower. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. Around Terriers, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
