What we do, step by step
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere as small as Edney Common, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

About our regrouting in Edney Common
We work across Edney Common, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, finished with new silicone at the edges. We are often asked to deal with gaps where the shower grout has gone and cracked grout along the bath or tray, across kitchen splashbacks, tiled floors and shower walls.
Being in a small place like Edney Common makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it, as they can break grout down.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. By then, new grout alone is not enough so early action pays.
Why deal with it now?
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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Edney Common can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Regrouting around Edney Common
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.
For landlords with property near Ingatestone station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. Homes close to St Paul's Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you look after a building such as Highwood Primary School, 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Edney Common
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
