About our regrouting in Gospel Oak
Before work begins, the tiles are checked. 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. If you’re dealing with floor grout that won’t come clean and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, we can put it right, on wet rooms, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles alike.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, and many bathrooms sit right above someone else’s ceiling. In Gospel Oak, that’s a good reason to put tired sealant and grout right early.
You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

FAQs for Gospel Oak
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Gospel Oak?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Could a tired shower seal in my Gospel Oak flat affect the neighbours below?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with photos by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They flex, and grout there cracks.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll tell you on the day. It depends on the grout and the sealant used so please stick to it.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What happens on the day
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and the area is left clean. For a job in Gospel Oak, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we are working on and whether there’s a lift.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
How we quote for regrouting
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The size of the job
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Any working-time requirements on site
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What to tell us for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
There’s no standard price list. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

About regrouting
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Stains that will not clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.
Why it’s worth doing now in Gospel Oak
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They will not fill gaps or keep water out and stains often come back through. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. Converted houses in London often have a bathroom above someone else’s living room, and a slow leak from a failed seal can end up in the flat below. Dealing with it early is far simpler.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

What regrouting looks like in Gospel Oak
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Gospel Oak. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Letting a property close to Gospel Oak station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. As a London address, Gospel Oak can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. For an older house near a landmark such as Highgate Road Chapel, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
