Regrouting for homes and businesses in Collier Row
Regrouting is normally paired with resealing. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they need flexible silicone instead. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. We’re often asked to deal with gaps where the shower grout has gone and cracked grout along the bath or tray, across bathroom wall tiles, shower walls and wet rooms.
In much of London, period terraces have been converted into flats over the years, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. Small, steamy rooms are where mould gets into sealant and grout fastest, and homes in Collier Row are no different.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What we do, step by step
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the tidy-up. For a job in Collier Row, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice
Regrouting around Collier Row
In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, which is why it’s worth fixing early. London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For landlords with property near Romford station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. As a London address, Collier Row can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you look after a building such as Rise Park Infant School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.
Grout that is washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom floors
Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It gets worn and dirty.
Corners and edges
The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout there would crack.
Why act early in Collier Row
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Collier Row: your questions answered
I live in a flat in Collier Row. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that’s down. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Romford station?
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 quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Normally we do both. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so we renew both and include it in your quote.
Do you work in Collier Row?
We do. Collier Row is part of the area we cover.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
