Hensting Regrouting
Tiled areas in Hensting need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Have loose tiles looked at early
We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. 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.
Regrouting in Hensting
When grout stays dark however much you clean it, the stain is often in the grout itself. New grout is the fix that lasts and you can pick a different colour while you are at it. If you have grout in a colour the owner wants to change and dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Somewhere as small as Hensting, 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.

- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
- A leaking shower valve or waste

Surface by surface
Shower walls
Showers put more water on grout than anywhere else. We rake it out and regrout and renew the silicone at the edges.
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.
How we quote for regrouting
You will get a clear quote before we start. It’s based on:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether the work is at height
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- Whether it has been sealed before
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You’ll have a clear quote before we start.
When to call us in Hensting
Grout that was put in corners cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
In the older streets around Church of the Holy Trinity, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Your questions about regrouting in Hensting
Do you work for landlords with property near Shawford station?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is Hensting within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and include it in your quote.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes. With the old grout removed, the new colour fills the whole joint, not just the surface.
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.
What does regrouting cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
How long does regrouting take?
Typically it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Bigger jobs take longer.
How it works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area in most cases. Somewhere as small as Hensting, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
How to prepare
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
