How we handle regrouting in Chillenden
If you’ve been scrubbing grout that won’t come clean, the stain is often in the grout itself. New grout is the fix that lasts and you can pick a different colour while you are at it. We work on shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are good tiles let down by tired grout and corners filled with grout instead of silicone.
For a small place like Chillenden, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Check the corner silicone every few months
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and open a path for water.
Stains that will not clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.

What happens if it’s left?
New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. A thin skin on top tends to break off. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Chillenden, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What to tell us for a quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- If someone has resealed it before
- What’s wrong with the joints now
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Can I do it myself?
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We regroute and reseal the worktop joint.
Bathroom floors
Cracked floor grout can point to movement underneath. We check the tiles before regrouting.
What regrouting looks like in Chillenden
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Goodnestone Church of England 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. If you let a flat or house near Aylesham station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Chillenden is about 6 miles west of Deal, in Kent. Jobs in Chillenden get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee.

Chillenden questions
Is Chillenden within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Aylesham station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and wouldn’t keep water out.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
