Regrouting in Penshurst
Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. We work on tiled floors, wet rooms and bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are floor grout that won’t come clean and splashback grout that has darkened.
Somewhere as small as Penshurst, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak, so get it looked at when you notice it.
Why act early in Penshurst
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They do not fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Penshurst, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You will know the price before we begin.

What happens on the day
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. In a small place like Penshurst, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any tricky access

Different surfaces, different methods
Corners and edges
Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.
Kitchen splashbacks
Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Stained grout is best replaced.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Common problems we fix in Penshurst
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down with repeated use, until the joints are rough and low.
The most common problems we see are:
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
If you look after a building such as Penshurst Church of England Voluntary Aided 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.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Penshurst
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Penshurst station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Baptist, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
