How we handle regrouting in Graveley
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. If you have good tiles let down by tired grout and splashback grout that has darkened, we can help, on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and tiled floors alike.
Homes around Graveley are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

The process
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. For a village or hamlet like Graveley, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. 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.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Common questions in Graveley
Do you work for landlords with property near Stevenage station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Graveley within the area you cover?
Yes, Graveley is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What does regrouting cost?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How long does regrouting take?
Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including preparation and clearing up. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Tell us the colour you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Surface by surface
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.
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so the whole area is finished together.
Graveley homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Graveley Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Rented homes near Stevenage station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

How we quote for regrouting
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Any mould that needs treating
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to know:
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- The rough size of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we’ll explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
Why deal with it now?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out and stains often come back through. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. In a small place like Graveley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
When it isn’t the sealant
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A leaking wet room membrane
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Tiled floors
- Shower walls
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Bathroom floors
- Wet rooms
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
