Swanton homes and their sealant
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 Mereworth Community Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Rented homes near Wateringbury station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

About our regrouting in Swanton
Grout is the filler between your tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water can get in behind the tiles. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. If you have a grout colour that no longer suits the room and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, we can help, whatever the surface.
For a small place like Swanton, regrouting is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Swanton and everywhere else we cover.

Common questions in Swanton
Will you come out to Swanton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Wateringbury station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
We seal corners with silicone. They flex, and grout there cracks.
How much does regrouting cost in Swanton?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
In most cases, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
Have any tile that moves checked straight away. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and open a path for water.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away, so regrouting early can save a retile.
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Why it’s worth doing now in Swanton
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We’ll tell you before any work starts, so you can decide what to do. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Swanton, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Common problems we fix in Swanton
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, and damp grout is where mould grows. When black spots keep returning, the mould has usually got into the grout.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
Homes close to Church of St Dunstan include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What happens on the day
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere as small as Swanton, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- 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.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
