About our regrouting in Aldgate
We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. It can be a full room, others just the shower. Whatever the size, the method stays the same. If you have discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and floor grout that has worn and darkened, we can put it right, on bathroom floors, tiled floors and wet rooms alike.
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up along sealant lines, in grout and on fittings. For a bathroom or kitchen in Aldgate, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Aldgate. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.

Advice
Your questions about regrouting in Aldgate
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Aldgate?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
I live in a flat in Aldgate. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that’s down. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or just the joints that have failed.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Do you work in Aldgate?
Yes. We cover Aldgate and the rest of Greater London. To book, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How the job changes by surface
Corners and edges
Edges are resealed while we’re there, so the whole area is finished together.
Bathroom floors
Cracked floor grout can point to movement underneath. We look for loose tiles first.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Bathroom floors
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Shower walls
- Wet rooms
- Tiled floors
Leave it or put it right?
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler for homes in Aldgate.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
Do you need regrouting in Aldgate?
Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
Managing a site like The Aldgate School? Then 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.
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- What preparation is included
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Who turns up on the day
What affects the cost of regrouting
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Any mould that needs treating
- Access and height
- When we can work, for business premises
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Roughly how big the job is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
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 explain what’s involved and give you a clear quote.
