Regrouting in Stoneyhills: local notes
Stoneyhills has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you let a flat or house near Burnham-On-Crouch station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. Managing a site like Ormiston Rivers Academy? Then 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.

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Stoneyhills
If you’ve been scrubbing grout that will not come clean, the discolouration has generally soaked into the grout. Replacing it is the lasting answer, and it’s a chance to change the colour too. Common call-outs are for grout in corners that has cracked and crumbling grout between the tiles, across kitchen splashbacks, shower walls and wet rooms.
Homes around Stoneyhills are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after we’ve gone.

Can I do it myself?
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 does not work out, we can still put it right.
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.
When it is not the sealant
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What happens on the day
Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere as small as Stoneyhills, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Aftercare tips
How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on 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.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
Leave it or put it right?
Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but patched grout rarely matches the rest and the old grout carries on failing. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Around Stoneyhills, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

- An ARBOMaster approved applicator

FAQs for Stoneyhills
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Burnham-On-Crouch station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Stoneyhills within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Which products do you use?
It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes, we often do. Shower grout tends to go before the rest, so many people regrout just that part.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
Tiles that have come away need sorting first. We’ll show you which ones before any grout comes out.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.
Common problems we fix in Stoneyhills
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
Homes close to St Mary's Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What affects the cost of regrouting
There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:
- Access and height
- The size of the job
- The type of sealant required
- Any mould that needs treating
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
