Regrouting for homes and businesses in Oakthorpe Park
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. Typical jobs include grout in a colour the owner wants to change and crumbling grout between the tiles, across bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors.
Across London, a large share of homes are flats, conversions or mansion blocks, so a bathroom is often directly above a neighbour’s ceiling. In Oakthorpe Park, that’s a good reason to put tired sealant and grout right early.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee.

What affects the cost of regrouting
You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The number and length of the joints
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- The type of sealant required
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Roughly how big the job is
- The address or postcode of the job
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.
For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on how much there is to do. In a London area like Oakthorpe Park, 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.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
We will tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen, so regrouting early can save a retile.
Why deal with it now?
Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but the patches often don’t match and the old grout carries on failing. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first.
Why us?
- Over 20 years’ experience
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- We never seal over old sealant
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

Common questions in Oakthorpe Park
Can worn sealant in a flat in Oakthorpe Park cause a leak downstairs?
Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that is down. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.
Can parking be tricky for a visit in Oakthorpe Park?
In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
It can. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint rather than sitting on top.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How long does the job take?
That depends on how much there is to do, but most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. We’ll tell you when we quote.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Oakthorpe Park
London has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.
Oakthorpe Park is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway. Schools such as St Anne's Catholic High School for Girls are buildings too, and 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. If you live in an older home near St Michael-at-Bowes, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
