Regrouting in Bushey
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. You might go from white to grey, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. We work on bathroom floors, tiled floors and shower walls, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked grout along the bath or tray and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease.
In a town like Bushey, older streets sit alongside newer estates, and bathrooms range from decades-old suites to brand-new ones. Whatever their age, sealant and grout tend to go before anything else.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Surface by surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so sound grout really matters. We check the tiles first.
Corners and edges
Corners flex as the building moves, so they get silicone, not grout.
How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Bushey
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.
In the older streets around Congregational Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you look after a building such as Little Reddings Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How long will you be here?
A typical job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Do you remove the old sealant?

Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
