What happens if it’s left?
Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, and then you are looking at retiling. Dealing with it now keeps it small. For businesses in Hemel Hempstead, a room closed because of a leak or mould costs more than the sealant, so failing joints are best replaced on a planned basis.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and give you a clear price before we start.

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Hemel Hempstead
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water can get in behind the tiles. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in and renew the silicone at the edges. We work on bathroom floors, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are floor grout that has worn and darkened and gaps where the shower grout has gone.
A place the size of Hemel Hempstead has homes of every age, from period houses to modern flats and estates. Whatever the age of the home, sealant and grout in bathrooms and kitchens wear out in the end.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What regrouting looks like in Hemel Hempstead
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Hemel Hempstead was built as one of England’s post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. New sealant won’t stick to old, so the old layers have to come out first.
Rented homes near Apsley station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. For an older house near a landmark such as St Barnabas, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How to look after the new joints
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and go gently on the grout at first.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. In central Hemel Hempstead, parking can be tight, so tell us about driveways, permits or nearby car parks. For flats, mention stairs, lifts and shared entrances as well.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear the area around the work
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
