Regrouting in St Nicholas at Wade, Kent
Professional regrouting in and around St Nicholas at Wade, with every bit of old sealant taken out first.
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
Regrouting in St Nicholas at Wade
Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, and the corners get fresh silicone. We work on shower walls, wet rooms and bathroom wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are crumbling grout between the tiles and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned.
Somewhere as small as St Nicholas at Wade, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like St Nicholas at Wade, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- 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.

Why deal with it now?
Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but mould that has got into grout usually comes back. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like St Nicholas at Wade, 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 usually makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.
Why book with us

DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

How long does regrouting take?

Do you need regrouting in St Nicholas at Wade?
Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
If you let a flat or house near Birchington-On-Sea station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.
Questions to ask before booking
- When the joint can take water or movement
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- What insurance they hold
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom wall tiles
Walls outside the shower get less water but still stain and crack. New grout freshens them up.
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.

Regrouting in St Nicholas at Wade: local notes
St Nicholas at Wade is within about 3 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Church of Saint Nicholas, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Nicholas At Wade Church of England Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
