How we handle regrouting in Frating Green
We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Frating Green are handled the same careful way. Typical jobs include gaps where the shower grout has gone and stained grout that cleaning won’t shift, on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles.
In a village or hamlet like Frating Green, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What we are called out for in Frating Green
Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly tends to wash out early.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
In and around Frating Green, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Surface by surface
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. Floor-to-wall and bath joints are sealed, not grouted.
Wet rooms
Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We renew both.
How the visit works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. Somewhere as small as Frating Green, 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.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Your questions about regrouting in Frating Green
Do you cover Frating Green for regrouting?
Yes, Frating Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
I let a flat near Great Bentley station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you grout the corners?
Silicone. Grout belongs between the tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Is it messy?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
When can I use the shower again?
We give you a time before we leave. The wait depends on the products and conditions so please stick to it.
How long does regrouting take?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Why deal with it now?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, and then you are looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Around Frating Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward, before the joints open up.
