Smarden Regrouting
Problem with your tiled areas in Smarden? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Smarden
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. We work on bathroom wall tiles, wet rooms and bathroom floors, and people most often call us about grout washed out of a shower and floor grout that has worn and darkened.
Homes around Smarden are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Why deal with it now?
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but the patches often do not match, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Regrouting the whole area gives an even, lasting finish. Older cottages and farmhouses around Smarden can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

Advice
Signs you need regrouting in Smarden
Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout washed out of a shower
Managing a site like Smarden Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
We will tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.

What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
Can I do it myself?
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 the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It cannot fix waterproofing below the tiles.
Kitchen splashbacks
A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.
Regrouting around Smarden
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For landlords with property near Pluckley station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. Homes close to Church of St Michael include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
