Longworth Regrouting
We cover Longworth for raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
About our regrouting in Longworth
Before any work starts, the tiles are checked. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout can’t fix a problem underneath. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. We work on bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are grout in a colour the owner wants to change and grout in corners that has cracked.
For a small place like Longworth, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When to call us in Longworth
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and when they are not, water gets in.
Look out for these signs:
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Longworth Primary School, 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.

What we do, step by step
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere like Longworth needs a little journey planning: 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.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out 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.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear the area around the work

Related advice
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

Your questions about regrouting in Longworth
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Longworth?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will you come out to Longworth?
Yes, Longworth is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
Regrouting will not fix loose tiles. We check the tiles first and tell you if any are loose or hollow so you know where you stand.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
How long does regrouting take?
Typically it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and wouldn’t keep water out.
How we quote for regrouting
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How many areas need sealing
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The old material and how stubborn it is
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The address or postcode of the job
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work.
Why it’s worth doing now in Longworth
If tiles are loose, regrouting alone isn’t the answer. We point that out first so you know what’s involved. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. In a small place like Longworth, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
We don’t show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
What you get with us
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

When something else is needed
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- A leaking wet room membrane
- Tiles that are chipped or split
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Longworth
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
