Across Purfleet-on-Thames, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges.

What else we do in Purfleet-on-Thames
What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. In a smaller place like Purfleet-on-Thames, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Shower walls
The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We rake it out and regrout and renew the silicone at the edges.
Wet rooms
Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.
Signs you need regrouting in Purfleet-on-Thames
Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Purfleet Primary Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What the cure time is
- Are they insured?
What regrouting looks like in Purfleet-on-Thames
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Purfleet-on-Thames. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Rented homes near Purfleet station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. In the older streets around St Stephen's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Purfleet-on-Thames questions
Do you cover smaller places like Purfleet-on-Thames?
Yes, Purfleet-on-Thames is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Purfleet station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Do you grout the corners?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in those joints cracks as the building moves.
What does regrouting cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
In most cases, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone and doing both at once leaves everything sound.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.
Keeping the joints in good condition
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
Have any tile that moves checked right away. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and lets water in.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough, so it’s worth acting early.
