Regrouting in Frogmore, Hertfordshire
Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for homes and businesses in Frogmore and across Hertfordshire. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.

- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
If you’re 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 fails, we can still redo it.
Regrouting in Frogmore, done properly
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. 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. Typical jobs include grout in corners that has cracked and grout washed out of a shower, on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom wall tiles and shower walls.
For a small place like Frogmore, regrouting is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. Older cottages and farmhouses around Frogmore can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.
Common problems we fix in Frogmore
Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
The problems people generally mention when they call are:
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Grout in corners that has cracked
Rented homes near How Wood station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
Questions to ask before you book
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Who turns up on the day
Frogmore homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Park Street Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you live in an older home near Church of the Holy Trinity, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
Regrouting won’t fix loose tiles. We check the tiles first and tell you if any are loose or hollow, so you can decide what to do.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.

How it works
