Regrouting in Hanwell
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. You might go from white to grey or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. We work on wet rooms, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are floor grout that won’t come clean and old grout in a dated colour.
Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout.
All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

Regrouting around Hanwell
London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Hanwell. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
If you let a flat or house near Hanwell station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mellitus, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What sealant work cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Cracked or broken tiles
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Shower walls
- Tiled floors
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Bathroom floors
- Wet rooms
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen splashbacks
A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.
Bathroom wall tiles
Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
How it works
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a London area like Hanwell, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re 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.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Tell us about any water getting in
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.
Advice
FAQs for Hanwell
I live in a flat in Hanwell. Can a failed seal leak into the flat 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.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Hanwell station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. We will check the other tiled areas as well and let you know if more needs doing.
How much does regrouting cost in Hanwell?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before we start.
How long should I wait before showering?
We give you a time before we leave. The wait depends on the products and conditions, so follow the time we give you.
Signs you need regrouting in Hanwell
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, which is why we check the tiles first.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
Schools such as St Joseph's Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is
- What happens if the job turns out different
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not
- Which colour the sealant will be

Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and the room is out of use for longer. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. In a flat in Hanwell, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
