Bowmans Regrouting
Professional regrouting in and around Bowmans, with every bit of old sealant taken out first and a 12-month guarantee.
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
How it works
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the tidy-up. A visit to Bowmans is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. 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.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Move anything stored near the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

About our regrouting in Bowmans
Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. 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 floor grout that won’t come clean and grout in corners that has cracked, across bathroom wall tiles, wet rooms and shower walls.
Homes around Bowmans range from older cottages to more recent houses. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Your questions about regrouting in Bowmans
Is Bowmans in your area for regrouting?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Bowmans is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Crayford station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and wouldn’t keep water out.
How the job changes by surface
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so its grout takes the most punishment. It normally fails first.
Wet rooms
Both the grout and the silicone in a wet room matter. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A leaking wet room membrane
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Tiled floors
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Wet rooms
- Shower walls
- Bathroom floors
What we’re called out for in Bowmans
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before work begins.
People normally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
Schools such as Wentworth Primary School are buildings too, and 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.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How long to leave it before use
- Is VAT in the price?
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Regrouting in Bowmans: local notes
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 let a flat or house near Crayford station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. If you live in an older home near St Barnabas, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
