Regrouting in Charing, done properly
Regrouting is generally paired with resealing. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. We work on kitchen splashbacks, tiled floors and bathroom floors, and people most often call us about greasy, stained grout behind the hob and cracked or crumbling grout lines.
In a smaller place like Charing, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, from older cottages to newer builds. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
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.

When to call us in Charing
Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and when they are not, water gets in.
People usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter and St Paul, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Charing: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Charing station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Charing within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
We seal corners with silicone. They flex, and grout there cracks.
How much does regrouting cost in Charing?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take 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.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and wouldn’t keep water out.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it because they wear grout away.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
What affects the cost of regrouting
You will get a clear quote before we start. It’s based on:
- Any mould that needs treating
- The type of sealant required
- The number and length of the joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- How we’d reach the joints
- Roughly how big the job is
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you are ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What we do, step by step
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area for a typical job. A visit to Charing 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.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
