Regrouting in Chase Cross
Our applicators work in Chase Cross on raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
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 Chase Cross, done properly
We work across Chase Cross, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, finished with new silicone at the edges. We work on wet rooms, tiled floors and kitchen splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are grout washed out of a shower and cracked grout along the bath or tray.
Smaller places like Chase Cross still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
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.

When it isn’t the sealant
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Tiles that are chipped or split
If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a smaller place like Chase Cross, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
Chase Cross homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Letting a property close to Gidea Park station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bower Park Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What affects the quote in Chase Cross
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The type of sealant required
- Whether the work is at height
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Asking for a quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- The type of property
- How we’d reach the joints
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so good grout is important. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We check the tiles before regrouting.
Do you need regrouting in Chase Cross?
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout that’s hard to shift. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, and at that point, new grout is the better answer.
Look out for any of the following:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
In the older streets around St James, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
Questions to ask before you book
