Regrouting in Bourne End
Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, with silicone renewed in the corners. Typical jobs include grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and cracked or crumbling grout lines, across bathroom wall tiles, wet rooms and kitchen splashbacks.
In a village or hamlet like Bourne End, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom floors
Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It gets worn and dirty.
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so its grout takes the most punishment. It’s often the first place grout washes out.

How it works
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere like Bourne End needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What happens if it’s left?
If tiles are loose, regrouting alone is not the answer. We’ll tell you before we start, so you can decide what to do. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. In a small place like Bourne End, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts.

- 12-month guarantee on every job

Bourne End homes and their sealant
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.
If you live in an older home near Church of St John the Evangelist, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Pixies Hill Primary 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.

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 work begins.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?

Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?

How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
You will get a clear time from us before we go. The grout and sealant both need to cure before they get wet.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.
