Regrouting in Eastry, Kent
Our applicators work in Eastry 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.
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
Regrouting in Eastry
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, with silicone renewed in the corners. Common call-outs are for crumbling grout between the tiles and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned, on wet rooms, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles.
Homes around Eastry range from older cottages to more recent houses. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.
Every job comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

What we are called out for in Eastry
Hard water and soap leave a film on grout that’s hard to shift. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, which is when replacing it makes sense.
The problems people normally mention when they call include:
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Shower grout that has worn away
Schools such as Eastry Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the job changes by surface
Corners and edges
Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.
Bathroom floors
Cracked floor grout can point to movement underneath. We check the tiles before regrouting.
FAQs for Eastry
I let a flat near Sandwich station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Do you cover smaller places like Eastry?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Can you change the grout colour?
It can. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint rather than sitting on top.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or just the joints that have failed.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Normally, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What sealant work cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How the visit works
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a job in Eastry, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Regrouting around Eastry
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.
Rented homes near Sandwich station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
Have any tile that moves checked right away. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone is not enough so early action pays.
For landlords and businesses
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
