About our regrouting in East Horndon
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. Common call-outs are for grout in a colour the owner wants to change and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, on tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles.
Being in a small place like East Horndon makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How we quote for regrouting
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number of rooms or windows
- When we can work, for business premises
- How much there is to do
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.
What to tell us for a quote
To make quoting easier, please include:
- The type of property
- The rough size of the job
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.
Why it’s worth doing now in East Horndon
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. In a small place like East Horndon, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

What we cannot put right
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Bathroom floors
- Wet rooms

Common questions in East Horndon
Is East Horndon within the area you cover?
Yes. East Horndon is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near West Horndon station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do you grout the corners?
Silicone. Grout is for the joints between tiles and moving joints need sealant.
What sealant do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a small place like East Horndon, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Regrouting in East Horndon: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
In the older streets around All Saints Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you look after a building such as West Horndon Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
