About our regrouting in Redbridge
Regrouting is normally paired with resealing. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. If you’re dealing with grout in corners that has cracked and crumbling grout between the tiles, we can put it right, on wet rooms, shower walls and kitchen splashbacks alike.
Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, with bathrooms fitted into whatever space was available. Small, steamy rooms are where mould gets into sealant and grout fastest, and homes in Redbridge are no different.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Redbridge and everywhere else we cover.

Redbridge homes and their sealant
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Redbridge. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. 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.
As a London address, Redbridge can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. Schools such as Redbridge Primary School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.
How it works
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself generally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on the size of the job. For a job in Redbridge, parking and access are the things to plan: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
Why act early in Redbridge
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and the room is out of use for longer. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. Damp from a failed joint spreads quietly in older London brickwork and timber, and by the time it shows on a wall or ceiling in Redbridge, the repair is bigger than the sealant job would have been.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

What the job involves on each surface

Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It wears and darkens over time.
Kitchen splashbacks
The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.

Common questions in Redbridge
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Redbridge?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Ilford station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes, we often do. The shower generally fails first, so many people regrout just that part.
Do I need to be at home?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Should I try DIY first?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Silicone. Grout is for the joints between tiles and moving joints need sealant.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Normally, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
We will tell you on the day. The wait depends on the products and conditions so please stick to it.
