Regrouting in Bickley
We work across Bickley, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges. We work on tiled floors, shower walls and wet rooms, and people most often call us about grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and splashback grout that has darkened.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In Bickley, regrouting is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bickley and across Greater London.

Leave it or put it right?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, and then you’re looking at retiling. Dealing with it now keeps it small. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Why book with us

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it cures fully. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
Your questions about regrouting in Bickley
I live in a flat in Bickley. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes, it can. Water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and show up on the ceiling below. It’s far simpler to replace tired sealant early than to deal with a neighbour’s ceiling.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Bickley?
London parking needs a little planning, so let us know about permits, bays or a driveway when you book. That way the visit can be planned around it.
Which products do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How do I get a quote for regrouting in Bickley?
It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a short description of the job.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Normally we do both. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and it’s all in the quote.
How long should I wait before showering?
You will get a clear time from us before we go. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before they get wet.
Can you regrout just the shower?
Yes, that is common. The shower generally fails first, so it’s often the only area that needs doing.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. Many customers do. Darker grout can hide marks and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
DIY versus a professional finish
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself usually takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on the size of the job. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Bickley. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

What regrouting looks like in Bickley
In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early. London’s water is hard, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps.
Bickley is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Rented homes near Bickley station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Managing a site like Bullers Wood School for Boys? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
