What regrouting looks like in Letty Green
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For landlords with property near Hertford North station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. For an older house near a landmark such as St John's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Letty Green
We work across Letty Green, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges. We work on kitchen splashbacks, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are splashback grout that has darkened and shower grout that has worn away.
Around Letty Green, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How to look after the new joints
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
What we can’t put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- A leaking wet room membrane
Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Common problems we fix in Letty Green
Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
Look out for any of the following:
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hertingfordbury Cowper Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
Before you book anyone
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How much experience the applicator has
- Is VAT in the price?
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.
Wet rooms
Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.
Your questions about regrouting in Letty Green
Will you come out to Letty Green?
Yes, Letty Green is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
I let a flat near Hertford North station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
What should I tell you?
Tell us what needs doing and where. If we need more, we will ask.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Regrouting alone is not the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
What guarantee comes with the work?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

How it works
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. For a village or hamlet like Letty Green, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
How to get a quote
To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We’ll send you a clear quote before any work starts.
Advice
Leave it or put it right?
New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away. 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 Letty 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. The price is agreed before we begin.
