What affects the cost of regrouting
You’ll get a clear quote before work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether the work is at height

- The type of sealant required
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will send you a clear quote for the lot.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The rough size of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Appledore
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. You might go from white to grey or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. If you are dealing with greasy, stained grout behind the hob and grout that makes sound tiles look old, we can put it right, on shower walls, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors alike.
Somewhere as small as Appledore, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere as small as Appledore, 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 for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Your questions about regrouting in Appledore
Do you cover smaller places like Appledore?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you work for landlords with property near Appledore (Kent) station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
What guarantee comes with the work?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Silicone. Grout belongs between the tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
The wait depends on the materials and how warm the room is. We’ll give you a time to follow when the job is done.
Leave it or put it right?
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. Replacing the grout and resealing the edges is a lasting fix. In a small place like Appledore, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Signs you need regrouting in Appledore
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
What your quote should include
- How hidden problems are handled
- What product goes in the joint
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- How the colour is chosen
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
