Regrouting in Northfleet
We work across Northfleet, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. We work on bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and old grout in a dated colour.
Homes around Northfleet have been extended and refitted over the decades. A common problem is new sealant laid over old, which never bonds properly, which is why all the old material has to come out first.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Northfleet and across Kent.

The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including the tidy-up. Parking in a town like Northfleet is usually straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
How to get a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and add photos by email if you can.

Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Kitchen splashbacks
Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Stained grout is best replaced.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Tiles that have come away from the wall

Do you take on hotel work around Northfleet?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. We cover Northfleet and the rest of Kent, along with the rest of our area.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
When can I use the shower again?
The wait depends on the materials and how warm the room is. We will tell you exactly how long at the end of the visit.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it because they wear grout away.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away, so regrouting early can save a retile.

Regrouting in Northfleet: local notes
Northfleet is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Gravesend station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Schools such as Northfleet Technology College are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What happens if it’s left?
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In Northfleet, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and they’re far easier to fix early.
