Regrouting in Farthing Green, Kent
Problem with your tiled areas in Farthing Green? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
About our regrouting in Farthing Green
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, or just the area that has failed. Either way, tiled areas in Farthing Green are handled the same careful way. If you have stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and corners filled with grout instead of silicone, we can help, on bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and wet rooms alike.
Somewhere as small as Farthing Green, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Every job is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Common problems we fix in Farthing Green
Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble, especially in a shower that’s used every day.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
Around Farthing Green, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What regrouting looks like in Farthing Green
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.
For landlords with property near Staplehurst station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Why it’s worth doing now in Farthing Green
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Around Farthing Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What you get with us
- Full insurance on every job
- 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews

How to look after the new joints
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout with a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
