Looking after it afterwards

- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers because they wear grout away.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Waltham St Lawrence
Before we start, the tiles are checked. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, since new grout cannot fix a problem underneath. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. We’re often asked to deal with good tiles let down by tired grout and dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor, across tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and bathroom floors.
In a village or hamlet like Waltham St Lawrence, 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.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

FAQs for Waltham St Lawrence
Can you do regrouting in Waltham St Lawrence?
Yes, Waltham St Lawrence is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Do you work for landlords with property near Twyford station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we’re using and why.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Where do you work from?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How long does the job take?
A typical job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Tiles away from the shower stay drier but still stain and crack. New grout freshens them up.
Kitchen splashbacks
A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.
Waltham St Lawrence homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For landlords with property near Twyford station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Managing a site like Waltham St Lawrence Primary School? Then 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.

You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:
- The type of sealant required
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What we need to know
Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
For a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. You’ll have a clear quote before we start.
Why it’s worth doing now in Waltham St Lawrence
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but mould that has got into grout generally 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 Waltham St Lawrence, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Do you need regrouting in Waltham St Lawrence?
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
The most common problems we see are:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
If you live in an older home near Church of St Lawrence, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- How much experience the applicator has
- What preparation is included

DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
How it works
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room and we leave things clean and tidy. For a village or hamlet like Waltham St Lawrence, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
