Regrouting in Northumberland Heath, Greater London
Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for homes and businesses in Northumberland Heath and across Greater London. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
Grout that is washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Northumberland Heath
Regrouting is usually paired with resealing. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they need flexible silicone instead. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. Typical jobs include grout washed out of a shower and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean, on wet rooms, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles.
London homes include a lot of flats, conversions and mansion blocks, and many bathrooms sit right above someone else’s ceiling. That makes worn sealant and cracked grout in Northumberland Heath more than a cosmetic job.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

DIY versus a professional finish
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.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchen splashbacks
A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so good grout is important. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Why act early in Northumberland Heath
Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We point that out first, so you can decide what to do. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. 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 Northumberland Heath, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels

How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, 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. In a London area like Northumberland Heath, the main things to plan are parking and access: let us know about parking, the floor we will be working on and any lift or shared entrance.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice
Regrouting around Northumberland Heath
London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as St Paul's, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as King Henry School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near Barnehurst station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Northumberland Heath questions
Do you work for landlords with property near Barnehurst station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Could a tired shower seal in my Northumberland Heath 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.
Do you cover Northumberland Heath?
Yes. From our base in Crawley, we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland, Northumberland Heath included.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Normally we do both. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
What sealant do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
What information do you need?
Tell us what needs doing and where, plus photos if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
What affects the cost of regrouting
There’s no set price list. What we look at:
- How many areas need sealing
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
- Which sealant suits the joint
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- The address or postcode of the job
- Whether it has been sealed before
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
