Advice
Leave it or put it right?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and the room is out of use for longer. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Upper Wellingham, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
Why us?
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- One-year guarantee on every job
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- We are fully insured

What we are called out for in Upper Wellingham
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
For landlords with property near Cooksbridge station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
How the job changes by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on the area. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.
Bathroom floors
Cracked floor grout can point to movement underneath. We check the tiles before regrouting.
Honest limits
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It won’t solve:
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Upper Wellingham homes and their sealant
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.
For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Schools such as Ringmer Community College and Sixth Form are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Stick to that time, and go gently on the grout at first.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it so early action pays.
