Regrouting in Steel Cross, 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. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. If you’re dealing with corners filled with grout instead of silicone and grout in a colour the owner wants to change, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Homes around Steel Cross are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Leave it or put it right?
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but mould that has got into grout generally comes back. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. In a small place like Steel Cross, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Steel Cross homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you let a flat or house near Crowborough station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner with a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it, as they can break grout down.
Stains that will not clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
Steel Cross: your questions answered
Is Steel Cross within the area you cover?
Yes. Steel Cross is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you cover Steel Cross for regrouting?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Steel Cross is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before applying anything new.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and wouldn’t keep water out.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or just the joints that have failed.
Do you need regrouting in Steel Cross?
Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
Schools such as Beacon Academy are buildings too, and 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.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Which colour the sealant will be
What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. The job usually takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room.

- 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.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
