Regrouting in St Lawrence, done properly
Grout fills the gaps between 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 wet rooms, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are grout washed out of a shower and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease.
Around St Lawrence, you will mostly find houses and bungalows, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.

Why it’s worth doing now in St Lawrence
New grout smeared over the old does not bond well. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Around St Lawrence, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before any work starts.

What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a smaller place like St Lawrence, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

St Lawrence homes and their sealant
St Lawrence is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. St Lawrence has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
Homes close to Church of St Laurence include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Ellington Infant School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Ramsgate station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It wears and darkens over time.
How we quote for regrouting
We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Which sealant suits the joint
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- The problem you’ve noticed
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll explain what’s involved before giving you a price.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
