Your questions about regrouting in Lynsted
Is Lynsted in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Lynsted is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
I let a flat near Teynham station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How long does regrouting take?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. We’ll tell you when we quote.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Flexible sealant. Grout belongs between the tiles and moving joints need sealant.
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. The old sealant has to come out completely.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location. We will ask anything else we need to know.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
Before we leave, we will tell you how long to wait. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before the shower is used.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Lynsted
Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. If you have kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and corners filled with grout instead of silicone, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes around Lynsted are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

What happens on the day
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room from start to finish. Somewhere like Lynsted 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.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
Ask for a quote

Other services in Lynsted
Keeping the joints in good condition
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Have loose tiles looked at early
Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers because they wear grout away.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
Why it’s worth doing now in Lynsted
New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. A thin skin on top tends to break off. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Older cottages and farmhouses around Lynsted can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

What affects the quote in Lynsted
You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It’s based on:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Which sealant suits the joint
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The address or postcode of the job
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- The problem you’ve noticed

Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Regrouting around Lynsted
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.
In the older streets around Church of St Peter and St Paul, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you look after a building such as Lynsted and Norton 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. Letting a property close to Teynham station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so grout there works hardest. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so sound grout really matters. We check the tiles first.
