FAQs for Hextable
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Swanley station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do you cover Hextable for regrouting?
Yes, Hextable is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Where do you work from?
Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
Do you grout the corners?
Flexible sealant. Grout belongs between the tiles and moving joints need sealant.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Do you reseal at the same time?
We usually do. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and wouldn’t keep water out.
Regrouting in Hextable
Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. If you are dealing with grout in corners that has cracked and stained grout that cleaning won’t shift, we can help, on tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom floors alike.
Around Hextable, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Have loose tiles looked at early
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so it’s generally the first thing to need attention.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Regrouting around Hextable
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.
If you live in an older home near St Peter, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you look after a building such as Hextable Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the job changes by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
Bathroom floors
Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It gets worn and dirty.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
What we’re called out for in Hextable
Grout that was put in corners cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and when they are not, water gets in.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
For landlords with property near Swanley station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Why deal with it now?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We will tell you before any work starts so you know what’s involved. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. In a smaller place like Hextable, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. A visit to Hextable is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
