About our regrouting in Godmersham
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout cannot fix a problem underneath. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. Common call-outs are for grout in a colour the owner wants to change and grout that makes sound tiles look old, across tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom floors.
Around Godmersham, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Check the corner silicone every few months
We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.
Why deal with it now?
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and often a few days without a shower. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. Around Godmersham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere as small as Godmersham, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Signs you need regrouting in Godmersham
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it with repeated use, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
The problems people usually mention when they call are:
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Floor grout that will not come clean
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Lawrence, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
