Regrouting in Thrupp, done properly
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water can get in behind the tiles. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in and renew the silicone at the edges. If you have floor grout that has worn and darkened and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, we can help, whatever the surface.
Around Thrupp, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What regrouting looks like in Thrupp
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. Thrupp has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
If you look after a building such as The Marlborough Church of England School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Letting a property close to Oxford Parkway station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of Holy Cross, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
When something else is needed
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower walls
Showers put more water on grout than anywhere else. We rake it out and regrout and renew the silicone at the edges.
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. Floor-to-wall and bath joints are sealed, not grouted.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on the size of the job. In a small place like Thrupp, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

How we quote for regrouting
Your quote is based on your job. We look at:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The size of the job
- When we can work, for business premises
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- A few pictures by email, if you can
If you’re in Thrupp and need regrouting, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Thrupp
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so it’s generally the first thing to need attention.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it so early action pays.
Thrupp: your questions answered
I let a flat near Oxford Parkway station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you work in hotels near Thrupp?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
How much does regrouting cost in Thrupp?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint rather than sitting on top.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
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.
