What we do, step by step
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere as small as Garlinge Green, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

Advice
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Garlinge Green
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they need flexible silicone instead. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. We work on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and shower walls, and the jobs we see most are shower grout that has worn away and old grout in a dated colour.
Being in a small place like Garlinge Green makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
What affects the quote in Garlinge Green
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The size of the job
- How many areas need sealing
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
Asking for a quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Whether it has been sealed before
- Whether it’s a home or a business
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.
What happens if it’s left?
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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Garlinge Green can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Surface by surface
Wet rooms
New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It can’t fix waterproofing below the tiles.
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so grout there works hardest. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
What regrouting looks like in Garlinge 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.
Around Garlinge Green, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it. Rented homes near Chartham station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

FAQs for Garlinge Green
Do you cover smaller places like Garlinge Green?
Yes, Garlinge Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

How long does regrouting take?
Typically it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Flexible sealant. Grout is for the joints between tiles and moving joints need sealant.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint, not just the surface.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or the area where the grout has gone.
How much does regrouting cost in Garlinge Green?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
