How we handle regrouting in Royal Tunbridge Wells
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on tiled floors, wet rooms and shower walls, and common reasons people get in touch are crumbling grout between the tiles and good tiles let down by tired grout.
Plenty of homes in a town like Royal Tunbridge Wells have had new bathrooms and kitchens over the years, some more than once. A common problem is new sealant laid over old, which never bonds properly, so we take every joint back to clean before anything new goes in.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

Leave it or put it right?
If tiles are loose, regrouting alone isn’t the answer. We’ll tell you before any work starts, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. In a family home in Royal Tunbridge Wells, a failed seal around a bath or a frame lets water into places you can’t see, such as under the floor, behind a panel or into a wall. Left alone, that means rot, damp and a bigger repair.
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Bathroom wall tiles
Walls outside the shower get less water but grout there still discolours. Regrouting brings them back in line.
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so its grout takes the most punishment. It normally fails first.
Questions from Royal Tunbridge Wells
Do you cover Royal Tunbridge Wells for regrouting?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Royal Tunbridge Wells is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Tunbridge Wells station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Opening a window helps.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They flex and grout can’t take that movement.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.
What does regrouting cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.
