About our regrouting in Maldon
We work across Maldon, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. If you have grout in a colour the owner wants to change and shower grout that has worn away, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a town like Maldon, older streets sit alongside newer estates, and bathrooms range from decades-old suites to brand-new ones. Whatever their age, sealant and grout tend to go before anything else.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Wet rooms
Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It does not repair failed tanking underneath.
Maldon questions
Do you take on hotel work around Maldon?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.

I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How much does regrouting cost in Maldon?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Where are you based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Tell us the colour you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Regrouting around Maldon
Maldon is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you look after a building such as Maldon Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Aftercare tips
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
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.
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.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Common problems we fix in Maldon
Poor ventilation keeps grout damp, giving mould a place to grow. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
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.
