About our regrouting in Haultwick
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. You might go from white to grey or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. Typical jobs include grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and splashback grout that has darkened, on bathroom wall tiles, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls.
Homes around Haultwick are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What we’re called out for in Haultwick
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, giving mould a place to grow. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.
Look out for any of the following:
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Munden Church of England Voluntary Controlled 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.

Haultwick homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near Watton-At-Stone station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. Homes close to Parish Church of All Saints include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and let the room air.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it so early action pays.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Your questions about regrouting in Haultwick
Do you cover smaller places like Haultwick?
Yes. Haultwick is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you cover Haultwick for regrouting?
Yes, Haultwick is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
What do you put in the joint?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job.
Do you grout the corners?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They move slightly and grout can’t take that movement.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Normally we do both. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so we renew both and it’s all in the quote.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels.

- Access and height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The rough size of the job

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
New grout smeared over the old does not bond well. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Around Haultwick, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
