Regrouting in Southwark, Greater London
Tiled areas in Southwark need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly.
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Splashback grout that has darkened
How we handle regrouting in Southwark
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, with silicone renewed in the corners. We are often asked to deal with stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and floor grout that won’t come clean, across kitchen splashbacks, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In Southwark, regrouting is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Quotes for regrouting in Southwark
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether the work is at height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many areas need sealing
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

How it works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a London area like Southwark, the main things to plan are parking and access: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space, which floor we’re working on and whether there’s a lift.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

What regrouting looks like in Southwark
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.
In the older streets around Borough Welsh Congregational Chapel, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. As a London address, Southwark can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. If you look after a building such as Charles Dickens Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
How to look after the new joints
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
Have any tile that moves checked right away. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and lets water in.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen splashbacks
Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Stained grout is best replaced.
Corners and edges
Edges are resealed while we’re there, so everything is renewed at once.
FAQs for Southwark
I live in a flat in Southwark. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes, it can. Water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and show up on the ceiling below. Replacing the sealant and grout before that happens is much less trouble than repairing a neighbour’s ceiling.
Do you work in hotels near Southwark?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Tell us the colour you’d like when you ask for a quote.
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll tell you on the day. The wait depends on the products and conditions so please stick to it.
