Regrouting for homes and businesses in West Kingston
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. If you have grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, we can help, on bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and bathroom floors alike.
In a village or hamlet like West Kingston, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

West Kingston homes and their sealant
West Kingston 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.
If you live in an older home near St Andrew's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near Angmering station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

What affects the cost of regrouting
You’ll get a clear quote before we start. It takes into account:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The size of the job
- How many areas need sealing
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- If someone has resealed it before
- The rough size of the job
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Whether it’s a home or a business
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.
How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Have loose tiles looked at early
Have any tile that moves checked right away. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
How the visit works
Once we are on site, 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 as small as West Kingston, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
How to get a quote
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. When it suits you, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Advice
When something else is needed
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Wet rooms

- Bathroom wall tiles
- Shower walls
Signs you need regrouting in West Kingston
Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly tends to wash out early.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
If you look after a building such as East Preston Infant School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
What to look for in a quote

Yes. We’re fully insured.
Can I add another job to the visit?

How long does the job take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Can you regrout just the shower?
Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or the area where the grout has gone.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Flexible sealant. Grout belongs between the tiles and moving joints need sealant.
