Regrouting in Maplescombe
Regrouting is normally paired with resealing. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. We work on bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are grout that makes sound tiles look old and corners filled with grout instead of silicone.
Around Maplescombe, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so the whole area is finished together.
Shower walls
Showers put more water on grout than anywhere else. We replace it and renew the silicone at the edges.

How we quote for regrouting
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The product the joint needs
- Any working-time requirements on site
- The number of rooms or windows
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before work begins.
Helping us quote
Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:
- The problem you’ve noticed
- The type of property
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. We will give you a clear price before any work starts.
Aftercare tips
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Check the corner silicone every few months
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and let the room air.
Stains that will not clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward, before the joints open up.

Maplescombe: your questions answered
I let a flat near Eynsford station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Do you cover smaller places like Maplescombe?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
Regrouting won’t fix loose tiles. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting, so you can decide what to do.
How long does the job take?
That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Should I try it myself first?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Why act early in Maplescombe
Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, which turns a regrout into a retile. Dealing with it now keeps it small. Older cottages and farmhouses around Maplescombe can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot 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 call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

What we are called out for in Maplescombe
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
Look out for any of the following:
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Grout washed out of a shower
If you let a flat or house near Eynsford station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long to leave it before use
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
