What regrouting looks like in New Cross
In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early. New Cross has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
New Cross is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you live in an older home near St James's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Regrouting in New Cross
We work across New Cross, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, and we finish by resealing the edges. We work on bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors, and people most often call us about kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and grout washed out of a shower.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. For a bathroom or kitchen in New Cross, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.

Why act early in New Cross
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. In older London homes, water behind a failed joint soaks into brick and timber without much sign, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in New Cross, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Landlord and commercial work in New Cross
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Landlords and letting agents in New Cross can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
What we cannot put right
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
Where we work in New Cross
- Bathroom floors
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Shower walls
- Wet rooms
- Bathroom wall tiles

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
The process
Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a job in New Cross, parking and access are the things to plan: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
Also in New Cross
New Cross: your questions answered
Could a tired shower seal in my New Cross flat affect the neighbours below?
Yes, it can. Water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and show up on the ceiling below. Replacing the sealant and grout before that happens is much less trouble than repairing a neighbour’s ceiling.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in New Cross?
Parking in New Cross, as in most of London, takes a little planning: a visitor permit or a bay close to the door helps a lot, so mention what’s available when you book.
What guarantee comes with the work?
You get our 12-month guarantee on every job, and we’re fully insured.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. Darker grout can hide marks and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. Working times can be discussed when we quote.
How long does regrouting 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 will give you a better idea when we quote.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and could still leak.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
What we’re called out for in New Cross
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, so we check the tiles before work begins.
Look out for these signs:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
If you let a flat or house near New Cross station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
