The process
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. For a village or hamlet like Jacob's Post, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
How we handle regrouting in Jacob's Post
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout belongs between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. We work on bathroom wall tiles, shower walls and wet rooms, and people most often call us about discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and cracked or crumbling grout lines.
Around Jacob's Post, it’s 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.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Surface by surface
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Bathroom floors
Cracked floor grout can point to movement underneath. We look for loose tiles first.
Signs you need regrouting in Jacob's Post
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, until the joints are rough and low.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
If you look after a building such as The Gattons Infant School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Common questions in Jacob's Post
Is Jacob's Post within the area you cover?
Yes, Jacob's Post is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you do regrouting in Jacob's Post?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Jacob's Post is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and include it in your quote.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes, that is common. Shower grout tends to go before the rest, so it’s often the only area that needs doing.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. As well as householders, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you’ll get one quote.
Keeping the joints in good condition
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone is not enough, so it’s worth acting early.
Why it’s worth doing now in Jacob's Post
Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, which turns a regrout into a retile. Dealing with it now keeps it small. Older cottages and farmhouses around Jacob's Post can have timber 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 is why we ask a few questions first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.

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.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Regrouting in Jacob's Post: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Burgess Hill station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. In the older streets around Providence Strict Baptist Chapel, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
