What we cannot put right
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Doddington
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. It can be a full room, or just the area that has failed. Whatever the size, the method stays the same. We work on wet rooms, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are grout that’s cracking and breaking up and splashback grout that has darkened.
Around Doddington, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Common questions in Doddington
Can you do regrouting in Doddington?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Doddington is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
I let a flat near Teynham station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Do you grout the corners?
We seal corners with silicone. They move slightly, and grout there cracks.
What do you put in the joint?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you reseal at the same time?
We generally do. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and wouldn’t keep water out.
Leave it or put it right?
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but patched grout rarely matches the rest and the old grout carries on failing. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Around Doddington, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
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.
Landlord and commercial work in Doddington
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll quote.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner with a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it, as they can break grout down.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.
What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and we explain the cure time before we leave. For a village or hamlet like Doddington, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- 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
- Clear the area around the work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Related advice
Regrouting in Doddington: local notes
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Teynham station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. If you live in an older home near Church of the Beheading of St John the Baptist, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so grout there works hardest. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
Corners and edges
Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout there would crack.
