Regrouting in Wallington
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. You might go from white to grey, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. We work on shower walls, bathroom wall tiles and kitchen splashbacks, and people most often call us about dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and good tiles let down by tired grout.
Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. Small, steamy rooms are where mould gets into sealant and grout fastest, and homes in Wallington are no different.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Wallington as everywhere else we work.

How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on. The job normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in Wallington. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
How to get a quote
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that’s easy.
Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We will tell you before any work starts, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. In a flat in Wallington, failed sealant seldom stays inside your own four walls: water can reach the neighbours below, and gaps in fire-rated joints affect the whole building.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask a few questions first.

DIY versus a professional finish
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so good grout is important. We check the tiles first.
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so its grout takes the most punishment. It generally fails first.
What we are called out for in Wallington
Grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble, especially in a shower that is used every day.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
Wallington is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Wallington
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Wallington. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. London’s water is hard, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
If you look after a building such as Holy Trinity CofE Junior 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. For landlords with property near Wallington station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone is not enough, so it’s worth acting early.
Common questions in Wallington
Do you work in hotels near Wallington?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
I let a flat near Wallington station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes, that is common. The shower usually fails first, so it’s often the only area that needs doing.
Do you guarantee regrouting?

How long should I wait before showering?
It varies with the products and the room. We will tell you exactly how long when the job is done.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Can I do it myself?
That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has usually failed. Regrouting alone is not the answer, and we will tell you before work begins.
