Regrouting in Up Somborne, done properly
Before we start, the tiles are checked. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, since new grout can’t fix a problem underneath. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. We work on wet rooms, bathroom wall tiles and bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and cracked or crumbling grout lines.
Somewhere as small as Up Somborne, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Up Somborne and across Hampshire.

Do you need regrouting in Up Somborne?
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, so we check the tiles before work begins.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
Homes close to All Saints Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away, so regrouting early can save a retile.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Common questions in Up Somborne
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Up Somborne?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you do regrouting in Up Somborne?
Yes, Up Somborne is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do I have to be there?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
Regrouting will not fix loose tiles. We check the tiles first and tell you if any are loose or hollow so you know where you stand.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere like Up Somborne needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work
