The process
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere like High Cross needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Regrouting in High Cross, done properly
Before any work starts, the tiles are checked. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. We work on shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and a grout colour that no longer suits the room.
Homes around High Cross are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What happens if it’s left?
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but mould that has got into grout usually comes back. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Around High Cross, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
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.
How we quote for regrouting
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Any mould that needs treating
- The number of rooms or windows
- When we can work, for business premises
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- The address or postcode of the job
- How we’d reach the joints
- The type of property
- Photos by email, if that is easy
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Check the corner silicone every few months
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.

What the job involves on each surface
Corners and edges
Internal corners move, so we seal them rather than grout them.
Kitchen splashbacks
The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.
Landlords, agents and businesses in High Cross
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will give you a quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Bathrooms and kitchens in High Cross
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.
Schools such as Rotherfield Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Crowborough station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. In the older streets around The Parish Church of St Denys, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
