Regrouting in Kent Street
Tiled areas in Kent Street need attention? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant, with a 12-month guarantee.

Regrouting in Kent Street
Before any work starts, the tiles are checked. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. If you have floor grout that has worn and darkened and cracked or crumbling grout lines, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Kent Street, 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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

What we are called out for in Kent Street
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before any work starts.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
Rented homes near Wateringbury station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
What your quote should include
- Are they insured?
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Which colour the sealant will be
What we do, step by step
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. In a small place like Kent Street, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Kent Street questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Wateringbury station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Is Kent Street in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Kent Street is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work, and we’re fully insured.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better, while lighter grout brightens a room.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Kent Street
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to St Lawrence's Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Schools such as Kings Hill School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
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.
