Regrout + deep clean
Stained grout removed, tiles deep-cleaned, fresh uniform grout laid.
A regrout is the right choice when grout failure is no longer isolated to a few joints. Instead of patching, the entire visible grout system is removed and replaced. The result looks new and behaves like a single, consistent surface.
Regrouting is a workshop-quality job when done properly. The critical steps are grout removal depth, joint preparation, product choice and finish tooling. Done well it will outlast several rounds of surface cleaning.
Common causes
- Widespread grout failure after years of daily use
- Grout originally mixed too wet or not compacted into the joints
- Repeated patch repairs that no longer blend or hold
- Movement cracking running through rigid grout across walls and base
- Staining that has penetrated the grout body and cannot be cleaned out

Frequently asked
How long does a shower regrout take?
A standard shower is usually one day for removal and regrout, with cure time before use.
Do you remove and replace silicone as part of the regrout?
We recommend replacing silicone at the same time so all joints are new — otherwise the old silicone becomes the weak point.
Can you regrout only one wall?
Yes, but the join between old and new grout will be visible. For appearance, full regrouts finish better.
Is regrouting cheaper than renovation?
Almost always. When tiles and waterproofing are sound, regrouting is a fraction of the cost of a bathroom rebuild.
