About our regrouting in Strood
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks or back again. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. We work on bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and shower walls, and common reasons people get in touch are grout that’s cracking and breaking up and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease.
Plenty of homes in a town like Strood have had new bathrooms and kitchens over the years, some more than once. Sealant run over the top of an old bead is a common cause of leaks and mould, so we take every joint back to clean before anything new goes in.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

DIY versus a professional finish
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Surface by surface
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
Corners and edges
The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout there would crack.
Why act early in Strood
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They do not fill cracks or stop water and stains often come back through. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. In a family home in Strood, a failed seal around a bath or a frame lets water into places you cannot see, such as under the floor, behind a panel or into a wall. Whatever the joint, failed sealant only gets worse.

Your questions about regrouting in Strood
Do you take on hotel work around Strood?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Can you do regrouting in Strood?
Yes, Strood is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
How long will you be here?
It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. We will tell you when we quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
We generally do. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and wouldn’t keep water out.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.

How the visit works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it generally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. For a job in Strood, we need access to where the work is and somewhere nearby to park. If the job is outside, mention gates, side access and anything above ground floor.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear the area around the work
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Regrouting around Strood
Strood has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Elaine Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as St Francis' Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

When to call us in Strood
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it with repeated use, until the joints are rough and low.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
If you let a flat or house near Strood station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Have loose tiles looked at early
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.
