Regrouting in Bockhanger
Professional regrouting in and around Bockhanger, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a 12-month guarantee.
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
Regrouting in Bockhanger, done properly
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. Common call-outs are for cracked or crumbling grout lines and greasy, stained grout behind the hob, across shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles.
In and around Bockhanger, older properties sit alongside newer ones. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Do you need regrouting in Bockhanger?
Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down, especially in a shower that is used every day.
The most common problems we see are:
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Shower grout that has worn away
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Before you book anyone

- When the joint can take water or movement
- Are they insured?

When something else is needed
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Cracked or broken tiles
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Bockhanger
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. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Bockhanger. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Letting a property close to Ashford International station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

What else we do in Bockhanger
What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the tidy-up. For a job in Bockhanger, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any parking rules near the property

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Bockhanger: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Ashford International station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Bockhanger?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Can you change the grout colour?
It can. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint, not just the surface.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes, that is common. The shower usually fails first, so many people regrout just that part.
Do you come to Bockhanger?
We do. Our applicators work in Bockhanger.
How much does regrouting cost in Bockhanger?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

What affects the cost of regrouting
Call for a quick quote. What matters most is:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How many areas need sealing
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
