Regrouting in Marley
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in and renew the silicone at the edges. Typical jobs include shower grout that has worn away and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean, on shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles.
Homes around Marley are mostly 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: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

What regrouting looks like in Marley
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near St John the Baptist's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Schools such as Harrietsham Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and 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.
Marley is about 7 miles east of Maidstone, in Kent. We provide regrouting to householders, landlords and businesses in Marley and nearby, as part of our work across Kent. Across Kent, we cover 922 places, and Marley is one of them. For nearby work, see our Chelmsford page, about 35 miles away.

When to call us in Marley
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down with repeated use, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
Rented homes near Harrietsham station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

- Whether you can choose the colour
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
When it is not the sealant
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Tiles that are chipped or split
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What happens if it’s left?
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. In a small place like Marley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.

Will you come out to Marley?

What else we do in Marley
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Have loose tiles looked at early
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on the amount of work. Somewhere like Marley needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
