Regrouting in Horton Kirby, done properly
When grout stays dark however much you clean it, the stain is often in the grout itself. Replacing it is the lasting answer and you can pick a different colour while you’re at it. We work on bathroom wall tiles, bathroom floors and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and gaps where the shower grout has gone.
In a village or hamlet like Horton Kirby, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

DIY versus a professional finish
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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Questions from Horton Kirby
Do you cover Horton Kirby for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Horton Kirby is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Farningham Road station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Is there any odour?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Horton Kirby and the rest of Kent.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
What does regrouting cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a short description of the job.
Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We will tell you before work begins, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. Around Horton Kirby, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Where we work in Horton Kirby
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Wet rooms
- Shower walls
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and go gently on the grout at first.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone is not enough so early action pays.
What the job involves on each surface
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so everything is renewed at once.
Kitchen splashbacks
Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.
What regrouting looks like in Horton Kirby
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Horton Kirby Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. In the older streets around The Parish Church of Saint Mary, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Letting a property close to Farningham Road station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
