How we handle regrouting in Rochester Riverside
If you’ve been scrubbing grout that will not come clean, the stain is often in the grout itself. Replacing it is the lasting answer and you can pick a different colour while you are at it. If you’re dealing with a grout colour that no longer suits the room and cracked or crumbling grout lines, we can put it right.
In and around Rochester Riverside, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Leave it or put it right?
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. Replacing the grout and resealing the edges is a lasting fix. Around Rochester Riverside, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that’s a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Rochester Riverside homes and their sealant
Rochester Riverside is within about 3 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Schools such as Rochester Riverside Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What should I tell you?

What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Silicone. Grout is for the joints between tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Common problems we fix in Rochester Riverside
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles

Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. It usually takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area.

- 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.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
