About our regrouting in Hook End
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, since new grout cannot fix a problem underneath. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. Typical jobs include grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and good tiles let down by tired grout, across tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms.
Homes around Hook End are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What happens if it’s left?
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Hook End, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or email us for an honest opinion and a quote.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
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.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it cures fully. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Walls outside the shower get less water but still stain and crack. New grout freshens them up.
Wet rooms
Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.
Regrouting around Hook End
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Letting a property close to Shenfield station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Managing a site like Doddinghurst Infant School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of All Saints, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
