How we handle regrouting in Great Braxted
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so nothing is ripped out. If you have old grout in a dated colour and floor grout that has worn and darkened, we can put it right, on bathroom wall tiles, shower walls and tiled floors alike.
Around Great Braxted, it’s 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.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Regrouting in Great Braxted: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For landlords with property near Witham station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

What else we do in Great Braxted
Leave it or put it right?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They don’t fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Great Braxted, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
What you get with us
- Over 20 years’ experience
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- Neat joints and a tidy finish

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.
Corners and edges
Corners flex as the building moves, so they get silicone, not grout.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak, so get it looked at when you notice it.
What happens on the day
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the tidy-up. Somewhere like Great Braxted needs a little journey planning: 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.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us if parking is tricky

Your questions about regrouting in Great Braxted
Is Great Braxted in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Great Braxted is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is Great Braxted within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
How long should I wait before showering?
It varies with the products and the room. We’ll give you a time to follow when the job is done.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
