Regrouting in Key's Green
Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. If you have a grout colour that no longer suits the room and splashback grout that has darkened, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Key's Green, 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.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Key's Green questions
Is Key's Green in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Key's Green is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you cover smaller places like Key's Green?
Yes. Key's Green is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you grout the corners?
Flexible sealant. Grout is for the joints between tiles and moving joints need sealant.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Which products do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
What guarantee comes with the work?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job, including regrouting.

Regrouting in Key's Green: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For landlords with property near Frant station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Leave it or put it right?
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Key's Green, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

How to look after the new joints
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and let the room air.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
Do you need regrouting in Key's Green?
Grout that was put in corners cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
Homes close to Chapel Of Ease Of St Luke include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Key's Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
