St George in the East: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Shadwell station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can worn sealant in a flat in St George in the East cause a leak downstairs?
It can, yes: water that gets past a split bead or cracked grout often runs under the tray and shows on the ceiling below. It’s far simpler to replace tired sealant early than to deal with a neighbour’s ceiling.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover St George in the East, along with the rest of our area.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. More than one area can be quoted together.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better and lighter grout gives a fresher look.
Regrouting in St George in the East
Across St George in the East, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, and we finish by resealing the edges. Typical jobs include grout that makes sound tiles look old and old grout in a dated colour, across bathroom wall tiles, bathroom floors and wet rooms.
Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. For a bathroom or kitchen in St George in the East, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What the job involves on each surface
Corners and edges
Internal corners move, so they get silicone, not grout.
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.
Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
When to call us in St George in the East
Most grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down, especially in a shower that is used every day.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
Homes close to St Peter's include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What happens if it’s left?
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but the patches often do not match, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water from a shower or window joint can reach the flat below, and gaps in fire-stopping matter to everyone in the building.
Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
