Regrouting for homes and businesses in South Kensington
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 there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. We work on tiled floors, bathroom floors and wet rooms, and common reasons people get in touch are old grout in a dated colour and gaps where the shower grout has gone.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In South Kensington, regrouting is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it, as they can break grout down.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
How it works
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In South Kensington, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Before we arrive
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Tell us if parking is tricky

- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
As a London address, South Kensington can be tricky for parking: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Why act early in South Kensington
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They don’t fill cracks or stop water and stains often come back through. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Dealing with it early is far simpler.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts.
Why us?
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- 180+ five-star Google reviews
- Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

What affects the cost of regrouting
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- The amount of work
- Any working-time requirements on site
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many areas need sealing

Every job is quoted individually, so start by telling us what you need. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details.
South Kensington homes and their sealant
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around South Kensington. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.
If you live in an older home near Chapel of St Luke, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Managing a site like Our Lady of Victories RC Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Questions from South Kensington
Can you help a landlord with a rental near West Brompton station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in South Kensington?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Is there any odour?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Normally we do both. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so both are renewed and include it in your quote.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or the area where the grout has gone.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
