Leave it or put it right?
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. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Highwood, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

About our regrouting in Highwood
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, with silicone renewed in the corners. We work on shower walls, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are splashback grout that has darkened and shower grout that has worn away.
Somewhere as small as Highwood, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Highwood homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Signs you need regrouting in Highwood
Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and when they are not, water gets in.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
In the older streets around St John the Baptist, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
Check the corner silicone now and then. Corners flex, so the sealant there will need renewing in time, long before the grout does.
Stains that will not clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.

The process
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Highwood, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- 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.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
Common questions in Highwood
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Highwood?
All our work, in Highwood and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover Highwood for regrouting?
Yes, Highwood is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.
Can you regrout just the shower?
We can. We’ll look at the rest of the room too and let you know if more needs doing.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
Loose tiles need refixing before regrouting. We will show you which ones before any grout comes out.
Do I need to be at home?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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. All the old material has to come out first.

- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The amount of work
- Whether the work is at height
- How many areas need sealing
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start.
What to tell us for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
We don’t publish a price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
