About our regrouting in Kenley
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. Typical jobs include good tiles let down by tired grout and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, on bathroom floors, tiled floors and kitchen splashbacks.
London homes include a lot of flats, conversions and mansion blocks, so a bathroom is often directly above a neighbour’s ceiling. That makes worn sealant and cracked grout in Kenley more than a cosmetic job.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kenley
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out, and stains can show through again. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Kenley, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom wall tiles
Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
Corners and edges
Edges are resealed while we’re there, so the whole area is finished together.
What sealant work can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Wet rooms
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Shower walls
How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it cures fully. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and let the room air.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it so early action pays.
Common questions in Kenley
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Kenley station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can worn sealant in a flat in Kenley cause a leak downstairs?
It can, yes: water that gets past a split bead or cracked grout often runs under the tray and shows on the ceiling below. Replacing the sealant and grout before that happens is much less trouble than repairing a neighbour’s ceiling.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Can I do it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
How long should I wait before showering?
It varies with the products and the room. We will give you a time to follow when the job is done.

Regrouting around Kenley
London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, which is why it’s worth fixing early. London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Managing a site like Harris Primary Academy Kenley? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Kenley is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.
