Specialist regrouting for Shenfield: careful preparation, the right product and tidy work. Call for a quick quote.
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
Leave it or put it right?
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but patched grout rarely matches the rest, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Homes in smaller places like Shenfield can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
Why us?
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- We never seal over old sealant
- We’re fully insured
- Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas

How we handle regrouting in Shenfield
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Whatever the size, the method stays the same. If you are dealing with grout that makes sound tiles look old and greasy, stained grout behind the hob, we can help, on bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms alike.
Smaller places like Shenfield still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Older or newer, every room gets the same approach: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Common questions in Shenfield
Can you do regrouting in Shenfield?
Yes, Shenfield is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.
Is Shenfield within the area you cover?
Yes, Shenfield is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Shenfield and the rest of Essex.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Tell us the colour you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. We will look at the rest of the room too and let you know if more needs doing.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it cures fully. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Shenfield
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Schools such as Shenfield St. Mary's Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Rented homes near Shenfield station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary the Virgin, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What else we do in Shenfield
How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. A visit to Shenfield is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
