About our regrouting in Tunstall
We work across Tunstall, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, finished with new silicone at the edges. If you have kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and grout washed out of a shower, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Tunstall, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Tunstall as everywhere else we work.

Questions from Tunstall
Do you take on hotel work around Tunstall?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sittingbourne station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
How long does regrouting take?
That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. We will give you a better idea when we quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Do you reseal at the same time?
In most cases, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
What sealant do you use?
It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
What we are called out for in Tunstall
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, until the joints are rough and low.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
Schools such as Tunstall Church of England (Aided) Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room for a typical job. In a small place like Tunstall, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

How the job changes by surface
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
DIY versus a professional finish
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
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, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Landlord and commercial work in Tunstall
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. Several sites can be quoted together.

What regrouting looks like in Tunstall
Tunstall 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 landlords with property near Sittingbourne station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. Homes close to Church of St John the Baptist include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
