Regrouting in Hale
Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, and the corners get fresh silicone. We are often asked to deal with cracked or crumbling grout lines and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, across bathroom floors, shower walls and wet rooms.
Somewhere as small as Hale, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

When to call us in Hale
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
If you look after a building such as Kingfisher Community Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is
- How hidden problems are handled
- What product goes in the joint
- When the joint can take water or movement

What happens if it’s left?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. 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 Hale, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Hale questions
Can you do regrouting in Hale?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Hale is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Gillingham (Kent) station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has normally failed. Grout on its own will not fix that and we’ll say so before going ahead.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and wouldn’t keep water out.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can you regrout just the shower?
Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or just the joints that have failed.
What does regrouting cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can I do it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Keeping the joints in good condition
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.
How it works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room from start to finish. In a small place like Hale, access is normally the main thing to plan. 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.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Let us know about parking restrictions
Getting a quote

Advice
Regrouting in Hale: local notes
Hale is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Gillingham (Kent) station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. In the older streets around Christ Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
