About our regrouting in Upton
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. If you are dealing with grout that makes sound tiles look old and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, we can help, on wet rooms, shower walls and tiled floors alike.
London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up along sealant lines, in grout and on fittings. For a bathroom or kitchen in Upton, getting the joints right keeps water where it belongs and the room looking clean.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Why act early in Upton
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They do not fill cracks or stop water and stains often come back through. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. In a London flat, a failed joint rarely stays your problem alone: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Surface by surface

Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We regroute and reseal the worktop joint.
Bathroom floors
New floor grout makes a big difference to how a bathroom looks. Floor-to-wall and bath joints are sealed, not grouted.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Upton
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Upton. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, which is why it’s worth fixing early.
In the older streets around St Peter's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. As a London address, Upton can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. Rented homes near Forest Gate station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Upton. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

Advice
DIY versus a professional finish
If you are 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 fails, we can still redo it.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.
Upton: your questions answered
I live in a flat in Upton. Can a failed seal leak into the flat below?
Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that’s down. A proper reseal before the leak starts is the easy fix.
Do you work for landlords with property near Forest Gate station?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Tell us the colour you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How long should I wait before showering?
It varies with the products and the room. We will give you a time to follow when the job is done.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes. We will look at the rest of the room too and let you know if more needs doing.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Grout on its own will not fix that, and we’ll tell you before we start.
Landlord and commercial work in Upton
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
When something else is needed
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. It will not solve:
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Wet rooms
- Shower walls
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom floors

Looking after it afterwards
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
We will tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
