About our regrouting in West End
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a 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 and renew the silicone at the edges. We work on tiled floors, wet rooms and bathroom wall tiles, and people most often call us about stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and grout in corners that has cracked.
Being in a small place like West End makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

What happens if it’s left?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They don’t fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. Around West End, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

How we quote for regrouting
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- Any mould that needs treating
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The type of sealant required
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Whether it has been sealed before
Every job is quoted individually, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.
How it works
Once we’re on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere like West End needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Mention any tricky access

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you are ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
Related advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so sound grout really matters. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so grout there works hardest. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
Common questions in West End
Will you come out to West End?
Yes, West End is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Hatfield station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Do I have to be there?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
How long should I wait before showering?
It varies with the products and the room. We’ll tell you exactly how long at the end of the visit.
Is it worth trying it myself?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
Regrouting will not fix loose tiles. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting, so you can decide what to do.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How much does regrouting cost in West End?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
When it isn’t the sealant
We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Tiled floors
- Wet rooms
- Bathroom floors
- Shower walls
- Bathroom wall tiles
Regrouting in West End: local notes
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.
If you look after a building such as Essendon CofE (VC) Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Hatfield station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
