Regrouting in Dunn Street
Tiled areas in Dunn Street need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
Why it’s worth doing now in Dunn Street
Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. Replacing the grout and resealing the edges is a lasting fix. Around Dunn Street, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- Fully insured
- 180+ five-star Google reviews
- Over 20 years’ experience
- Old sealant always removed completely

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Dunn Street
Grout is the filler between your tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water can get in behind the tiles. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in and renew the silicone at the edges. We work on kitchen splashbacks, wet rooms and bathroom floors, and people most often call us about greasy, stained grout behind the hob and crumbling grout between the tiles.
Around Dunn Street, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Common problems we fix in Dunn Street
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, which is why we check the tiles first.
People generally contact us when they notice one of these:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
Letting a property close to Rainham (Kent) station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Dunn Street
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In the older streets around Church of St Peter, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Schools such as Swingate Primary School are buildings too, and 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.

Local landmarks in Dunn Street
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to South Wood and The Harrow pub and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Rainham (Kent) station, roughly 3.3 miles north-east of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include KIMS hospital (2.8 miles south) and Allington Castle (3.4 miles south-west). Green spaces nearby include Boxley Hills and Burham Down.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, 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, 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.
Dunn Street: your questions answered
Do you cover Dunn Street for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Dunn Street is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you work for landlords with property near Rainham (Kent) station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. Many customers do. Darker grout can hide marks and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has usually failed. Grout on its own won’t fix that and we will say so before going ahead.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work, and we’re fully insured.
How long does regrouting take?
A typical job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- Tiles that have come away from the wall

What affects the cost of regrouting
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Whether the work is at height
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The amount of work
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Where the property is
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add pictures by email if you can.
The process
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room for a typical job. In a small place like Dunn Street, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access
