Regrouting for homes and businesses in Upper Common
Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, with silicone renewed in the corners. Typical jobs include grout that makes sound tiles look old and cracked grout along the bath or tray, on bathroom wall tiles, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks.
Around Upper Common, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Signs you need regrouting in Upper Common
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout and stick to it. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, which is when replacing it makes sense.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
Homes close to Church of St. Martin include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it so early action pays.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
- A leaking shower valve or waste
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.

Why it’s worth doing now in Upper Common
Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but patched grout rarely matches the rest, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Upper Common, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like Upper Common, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention any parking rules near the property
