Tolleshunt Knights: your questions answered
Will you come out to Tolleshunt Knights?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Kelvedon station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Will it make 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.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Tell us what needs doing and where, with photos by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes. Many clients do. A darker grout hides marks better, while lighter grout brightens a room.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
New grout cannot hold loose tiles in place. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting, so you can decide what to do.
Do I have to be there?
It depends on the job. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.
How we handle regrouting in Tolleshunt Knights
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. If you’re dealing with dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and old grout in a dated colour, we can help, whatever the surface.
Homes around Tolleshunt Knights are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Surface by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Tiles away from the shower stay drier but grout there still discolours. Regrouting brings them back in line.
Kitchen splashbacks
We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.
The process
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. Somewhere like Tolleshunt Knights needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- 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.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

What regrouting looks like in Tolleshunt Knights
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Luke's Church of England Controlled 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.

- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles

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 Tolleshunt Knights, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
