Regrouting in Bidborough
Problem with your tiled areas in Bidborough? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.

About our regrouting in Bidborough
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout belongs between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they need flexible silicone instead. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. Typical jobs include grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and shower grout that has worn away, across shower walls, tiled floors and bathroom floors.
Being in a small place like Bidborough makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Keep the fan on after showering
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen, so regrouting early can save a retile.

What regrouting looks like in Bidborough
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In the older streets around Parish Church of St Lawrence, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Southborough CofE Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Why it’s worth doing now in Bidborough
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but the patches often don’t match, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Around Bidborough, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Doing several joints on one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why us?

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
When to call us in Bidborough
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout and stick to it. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, which is when replacing it makes sense.
People usually contact us after spotting something like this:
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Old grout in a dated colour
If you let a flat or house near Leigh (Kent) station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Honest limits
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surface by surface
Shower walls
The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We replace it and renew the silicone at the edges.
Corners and edges
Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout there would crack.
