Regrouting in South Street, done properly
Grout is the filler between your 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, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on kitchen splashbacks, shower walls and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and cracked grout along the bath or tray.
Being in a small place like South Street makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Have loose tiles looked at early
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it so early action pays.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Bathrooms and kitchens in South Street
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near Selling station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. In the older streets around Church of St Peter and St Paul, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Common problems we fix in South Street
Poor ventilation keeps grout damp, giving mould a place to grow. When black spots keep returning, the mould has normally got into the grout.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Shower grout that has worn away
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Boughton-under-Blean and Dunkirk Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What the job involves on each surface
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
Corners and edges
The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout there would crack.
Why deal with it now?
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like South Street, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear quote for the lot.
