Signs you need regrouting in Iwade
Most grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
If you look after a building such as Iwade School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Regrouting in Iwade
Across Iwade, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges. Common call-outs are for dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and crumbling grout between the tiles, on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and shower walls.
Smaller places like Iwade still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: old sealant or grout cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Keep the fan on after showering
Have any tile that moves checked right away. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and lets water in.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak, so get it looked at when you notice it.
How we quote for regrouting
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- When we can work, for business premises
- Any mould that needs treating
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Roughly how big the job is
- How we’d reach the joints
- The address or postcode of the job
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
Regrouting around Iwade
Iwade is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Kemsley station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
Iwade is about 2 miles north of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Iwade gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. 922 places in Kent are on our list, from the larger towns to small villages.

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom floors
Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It wears and darkens over time.
Wet rooms
Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It does not repair failed tanking underneath.

Questions from Iwade
Is Iwade in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Iwade is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords with property near Kemsley station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has normally failed. Grout on its own won’t fix that and we will say so before going ahead.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
We use silicone in corners and along edges. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
How long will you be here?
That depends on how much there is to do, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Why it’s worth doing now in Iwade
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They don’t fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. In an older home around Iwade, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. A visit to Iwade is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
