What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What’s wrong with the joints now

- The address or postcode of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
If you’re in Hammerwood and need regrouting, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
Regrouting in Hammerwood
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, since new grout cannot fix a problem underneath. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. If you are dealing with corners filled with grout instead of silicone and old grout in a dated colour, we can put it right, on shower walls, bathroom floors and wet rooms alike.
In a village or hamlet like Hammerwood, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on the size of the job. Somewhere like Hammerwood 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.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
Questions from Hammerwood
Do you work for landlords with property near Dormans station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you cover Hammerwood for regrouting?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Hammerwood is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Silicone. Grout belongs between the tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
How do I get a quote for regrouting in Hammerwood?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing and where.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has generally failed. Regrouting alone is not the answer and we’ll say so before going ahead.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but the patches often don’t match and the old grout carries on failing. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. In a small place like Hammerwood, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- 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.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

When to call us in Hammerwood
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Floor grout that will not come clean
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Sackville 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 you book
- Is VAT in the price?
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- The length of the guarantee
- How long to leave it before use
Hammerwood homes and their sealant
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.
Homes close to Church of St Stephen include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Letting a property close to Dormans station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
