How we handle regrouting in Welborne
Across Welborne, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. Common call-outs are for stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and splashback grout that has darkened, on tiled floors, shower walls and bathroom floors.
Somewhere as small as Welborne, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

FAQs for Welborne
Do you work for landlords with property near Fareham station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you work in hotels near Welborne?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Bigger jobs take longer.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in those joints cracks as the building moves.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes, that’s common. The shower usually fails first, so many people regrout just that part.
What does regrouting cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.
Why act early in Welborne
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and the room is out of use for longer. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. In a small place like Welborne, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start.

How we quote for regrouting
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The number and length of the joints
- Any mould that needs treating
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Access and height
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before work begins.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll talk you through the work and give you a clear price.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Welborne
Welborne is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Francis, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For landlords with property near Fareham station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
Surface by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.
Wet rooms
New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It does not repair failed tanking underneath.

Common problems we fix in Welborne
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, until the joints are rough and low.
The problems people usually mention when they call include:
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Henry Cort Community College, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
