Regrouting in Clap Hill, Kent
Our applicators work in Clap Hill on raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Splashback grout that has darkened
Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
About our regrouting in Clap Hill
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. You might go from white to grey or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you call 0345 464 0079 or email us. We work on shower walls, tiled floors and bathroom floors, and people most often call us about grout washed out of a shower and grout that makes sound tiles look old.
Around Clap Hill, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
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.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak, so get it looked at when you notice it.

Common questions in Clap Hill
Can you do regrouting in Clap Hill?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
We will tell you on the day. It depends on the grout and the sealant used, so follow the time we give you.
How long does regrouting take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. We will tell you when we quote.
Clap Hill homes and their sealant
