Regrouting for homes and businesses in Kensal Rise
Regrouting is usually paired with resealing. Grout belongs between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. If you have grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles, we can help, on shower walls, wet rooms and tiled floors alike.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, and many bathrooms sit right above someone else’s ceiling. That makes worn sealant and cracked grout in Kensal Rise more than a cosmetic job.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so good grout is important. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Bathroom floors
Cracked floor grout can point to movement underneath. We check the tiles before regrouting.

Regrouting around Kensal Rise

Schools such as Ark Franklin Primary Academy are buildings too, and 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. As a London address, Kensal Rise can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Why it’s worth doing now in Kensal Rise
New grout smeared over the old does not bond well. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In a flat in Kensal Rise, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before we start.

How it works
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes 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. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- 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
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
Do you need regrouting in Kensal Rise?
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it with repeated use, until the joints are rough and low.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
Rented homes near Kensal Rise station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Questions from Kensal Rise
I live in a flat in Kensal Rise. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.
Is parking an issue for regrouting in Kensal Rise?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. Many clients do. A darker grout hides marks better and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and include it in your quote.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes, we often do. Shower grout tends to go before the rest, so it’s often the only area that needs doing.
Does someone need to be in?
That depends on where the joints are. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
Which products 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. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
