Platt's Heath: your questions answered
Is Platt's Heath in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Platt's Heath is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Lenham station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better, while lighter grout brightens a room.
What information do you need?
Let us know what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. If we need more, we will ask.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They move slightly, and grout there cracks.
Regrouting in Platt's Heath
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. Typical jobs include stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and greasy, stained grout behind the hob, across tiled floors, shower walls and wet rooms.
For a small place like Platt's Heath, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What we can’t put right
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
- Tiles that are chipped or split
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal

Quotes for regrouting in Platt's Heath
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The size of the job
- Access and height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- When we can work, for business premises
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- How we’d reach the joints
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- If someone has resealed it before
There’s no standard price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
What happens if it’s left?
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In a small place like Platt's Heath, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a village or hamlet like Platt's Heath, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- 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.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
We will tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
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.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Regrouting in Platt's Heath: local notes
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For landlords with property near Lenham station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Platts Heath Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
