About our regrouting in Marshalswick
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. We’re often asked to deal with corners filled with grout instead of silicone and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, on shower walls, wet rooms and kitchen splashbacks.
Around Marshalswick, you will mostly find houses and bungalows, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a smaller place like Marshalswick, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Related advice
Why act early in Marshalswick
Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We point that out first so you know what’s involved. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. In a smaller place like Marshalswick, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Surface by surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so sound grout really matters. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Bathroom wall tiles
We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on the area. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.

What regrouting looks like in Marshalswick
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Saint Mary's, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Letting a property close to St Albans station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Schools such as St John Fisher Roman Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Marshalswick: your questions answered
I let a flat near St Albans station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Marshalswick within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What do you put in the joint?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes, that is common. Shower grout tends to go before the rest, so many people regrout just that part.
Where are you based?
Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Keep the fan on after showering
Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner with a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers because they wear grout away.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough so early action pays.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
