- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
Signs you need regrouting in Winterbrook
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
The most common problems we see are:
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Grout in corners that has cracked
Homes close to St John the Baptist's Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
Questions to ask before you book
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How much experience the applicator has
- Which colour the sealant will be
How we handle regrouting in Winterbrook
When grout stays dark however much you clean it, the stain is often in the grout itself. New grout is the fix that lasts and you can pick a different colour while you are at it. We work on kitchen splashbacks, wet rooms and shower walls, and people most often call us about discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and corners filled with grout instead of silicone.
Homes around Winterbrook are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Winterbrook homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Cholsey station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. If you look after a building such as Cholsey 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.

How the job changes by surface
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Bathroom wall tiles
Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.
Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Stick to that time, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Winterbrook

What affects the cost of regrouting
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many areas need sealing
- Any mould that needs treating
- The old material and how stubborn it is
We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

- Whether it’s a home or a business
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved.
Your questions about regrouting in Winterbrook
Do you cover Winterbrook for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Winterbrook is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
Will you come out to Winterbrook?
Yes. Winterbrook is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Where do you work from?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and wouldn’t keep water out.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
How long does regrouting take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on. Expect the work to take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere as small as Winterbrook, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag 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.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We point that out first, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. Older cottages and farmhouses around Winterbrook can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear price before any work starts.
