Regrouting in Broadstairs
Tiled areas in Broadstairs need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a one-year guarantee.
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
About our regrouting in Broadstairs
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, with silicone renewed in the corners. We work on wet rooms, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are grout that’s cracking and breaking up and grout in corners that has cracked.
In a town like Broadstairs, older streets sit alongside newer estates, and bathrooms range from decades-old suites to brand-new ones. Either way, the sealant and grout are usually the first things to fail.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

What happens if it’s left?
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Around Broadstairs, failed sealant lets water into hidden places, such as under the floor, behind a panel or into a wall. Whatever the joint, failed sealant only gets worse.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom wall tiles
Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on size. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
Regrouting in Broadstairs: local notes
Broadstairs is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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 look after a building such as St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Broadstairs station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Do you need regrouting in Broadstairs?
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, and damp grout is where mould grows. When black spots keep returning, the mould has usually got into the grout.
The most common problems we see are:
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Shower grout that has worn away
If you live in an older home near Parish Church of St Peter the Apostle, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

How we quote for regrouting
There’s no set price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Roughly how big the job is
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll talk you through the work and give you a clear price.

Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room.

- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
