Why act early in Martin
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but mould that has got into grout usually comes back. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Around Martin, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Regrouting in Martin, done properly
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. We work on tiled floors, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles, and people most often call us about grout washed out of a shower and grout in a colour the owner wants to change.
Somewhere as small as Martin, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
Have any tile that moves checked straight away. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
Questions from Martin
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Martin Mill station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Do you cover Martin for regrouting?
Yes, Martin is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or the area where the grout has gone.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
How do I get a quote for regrouting in Martin?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
How long does regrouting take?
Typically it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A leaking wet room membrane
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Martin
Martin homes and their sealant
Martin is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Augustine, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Langdon 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.

What we do, step by step
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Martin, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Related advice
Do you need regrouting in Martin?
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, until the joints are rough and low.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
For landlords with property near Martin Mill station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
Before you book anyone
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen splashbacks
We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.
