Quotes for regrouting in Bures Green
The price is agreed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The size of the job
- Any mould that needs treating
- How many areas need sealing
- When we can work, for business premises

How we handle regrouting in Bures Green
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, or just the area that has failed. Either way, tiled areas in Bures Green are handled the same careful way. Typical jobs include good tiles let down by tired grout and grout in a colour the owner wants to change, on bathroom wall tiles, wet rooms and kitchen splashbacks.
In a village or hamlet like Bures Green, 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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We will tell you before any work starts, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Bures Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why book with us
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- Old sealant always removed completely
- 20+ years of sealant experience
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. 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.
Regrouting in Bures Green: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Bures station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you look after a building such as Bures Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School, 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.

Landlord and commercial work in Bures Green
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Tiles that are chipped or split
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Bathroom floors
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Shower walls
- Wet rooms
- Tiled floors
- Kitchen splashbacks
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Are you an approved applicator?

There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the tidy-up. For a village or hamlet like Bures Green, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- 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.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
