DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Row Heath
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. Typical jobs include corners filled with grout instead of silicone and grout washed out of a shower, on bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and kitchen splashbacks.
Around Row Heath, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and often a few days without a shower. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Row Heath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Common questions in Row Heath
Can you do regrouting in Row Heath?

I let a flat near Weeley station. Can you help?

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
Regrouting will not fix loose tiles. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting so you know where you stand.
Do I need to be at home?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

What happens on the day
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere like Row Heath needs a little journey planning: 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.
- 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.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

Common problems we fix in Row Heath
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Old grout in a dated colour
Homes close to Church of St James include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Before booking anyone
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- What insurance they hold
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
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.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
Bathroom floors
Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It wears and darkens over time.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
