Regrouting in Fyfield
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. We work on tiled floors, wet rooms and bathroom wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and greasy, stained grout behind the hob.
Being in a small place like Fyfield makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Signs you need regrouting in Fyfield
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, and damp grout is where mould grows. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.
The most common problems we see are:
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
In the older streets around Church of St Nicholas, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

How the job changes by surface
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Bathroom wall tiles
Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on size. You can change the colour at the same time.
What regrouting looks like in Fyfield
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as The Ongar Academy, 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.

What else we do in Fyfield
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time, long before the grout does.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

How the visit works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a village or hamlet like Fyfield, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. 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.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about parking restrictions

DIY versus a professional finish
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Fyfield questions
Is Fyfield within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you do regrouting in Fyfield?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Fyfield is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will you leave a mess?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Do you grout the corners?
We seal corners with silicone. They move slightly and grout can’t take that movement.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we are using and why.
How long does regrouting take?
A typical job takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.
