Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Rinse the tiles after showering
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and lets water in.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
Regrouting in Lamarsh, done properly
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. We work on wet rooms, shower walls and bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are splashback grout that has darkened and cracked grout along the bath or tray.
In a village or hamlet like Lamarsh, 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.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

The process
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere as small as Lamarsh, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

FAQs for Lamarsh
Do you work for landlords with property near Bures station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Will you come out to Lamarsh?
Yes, Lamarsh is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Normally, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Lamarsh and the rest of Essex, along with the rest of our area.
Should I try DIY first?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. With the old grout removed, the new colour fills the whole joint rather than sitting on top.
How long should I wait before showering?
We’ll tell you on the day. The wait depends on the products and conditions so please stick to it.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Why it’s worth doing now in Lamarsh
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They do not fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. Around Lamarsh, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Common problems we fix in Lamarsh
Grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.
The problems people normally mention when they call are:
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
Rented homes near Bures station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- Is VAT in the price?
- Whether you can choose the colour
- Are they insured?
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Regrouting in Lamarsh: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Church of the Holy Innocents, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
