How the job changes by surface
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
Kitchen splashbacks
Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Stained grout is best replaced.
How we handle regrouting in Westcott Barton
Before we start, the tiles are checked. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout cannot fix a problem underneath. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. Typical jobs include cracked grout along the bath or tray and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, across bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and shower walls.
Being in a small place like Westcott Barton makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Westcott Barton and everywhere else we cover.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
What regrouting looks like in Westcott Barton
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.
Homes close to Church of St Edward the Confessor include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Middle Barton Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. Letting a property close to Heyford station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Westcott Barton: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Heyford station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Will you come out to Westcott Barton?

Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.

What else we do in Westcott Barton
Why it’s worth doing now in Westcott Barton
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but patched grout rarely matches the rest and the old grout carries on failing. Regrouting the whole area gives an even, lasting finish. Around Westcott Barton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Check the corner silicone every few months
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it, as they can break grout down.
Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
