How we handle regrouting in Wokingham
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. You might go from white to grey, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. If you have shower grout that has worn away and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
A place the size of Wokingham has homes of every age, from period houses to modern flats and estates. Whatever the age of the home, sealant and grout in bathrooms and kitchens wear out in the end.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Wokingham and everywhere else we cover.
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Where a business in Wokingham needs to stay open, out-of-hours working can be arranged, while home visits are arranged within our normal working hours, Monday to Saturday.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen, so regrouting early can save a retile.

How do I get a quote for regrouting in Wokingham?

Do you have insurance?

Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
It can. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint rather than sitting on top.

Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wokingham
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out and stains often come back through. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. For businesses in Wokingham, a room closed because of a leak or mould costs more than the sealant, so failing joints are best replaced on a planned basis.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling

What else we do in Wokingham
Do you need regrouting in Wokingham?
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before we start.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
Letting a property close to Wokingham station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Regrouting around Wokingham
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings. Wokingham has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Paul, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you look after a building such as Walter Infant School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
