Regrouting in Farningham
Before work begins, the tiles are checked. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, because regrouting won’t fix what’s behind them. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. We work on tiled floors, shower walls and bathroom wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are good tiles let down by tired grout and crumbling grout between the tiles.
Somewhere as small as Farningham, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Farningham as everywhere else we work.

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Farningham
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. Farningham has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
If you look after a building such as The Anthony Roper Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

How the job changes by surface
Corners and edges
Corners flex as the building moves, so they get silicone, not grout.
Kitchen splashbacks
The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.

What else we do in Farningham
Common problems we fix in Farningham
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
Rented homes near Eynsford station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on. The job normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere like Farningham needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and go gently on the grout at first.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough so early action pays.
Your questions about regrouting in Farningham
Do you work in hotels near Farningham?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Eynsford 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 send you a clear quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Normally we do both. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Do I have to be there?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Regrouting alone is not the answer and we’ll say so before going ahead.
Why act early in Farningham
Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, which turns a regrout into a retile. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. In a small place like Farningham, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll talk you through it.

DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
