Advice
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Westwell Leacon
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. If you are dealing with grout in corners that has cracked and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Homes around Westwell Leacon are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.
Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Westwell Leacon and across Kent.

Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Westwell Leacon
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as The Hayesbrook 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. If you live in an older home near Charing Methodist Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Surface by surface
Shower walls
The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We rake it out and regrout and renew the silicone at the edges.
Kitchen splashbacks
A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and go gently on the grout at first.
Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away, so regrouting early can save a retile.
Common problems we fix in Westwell Leacon
A poor original job is a common cause. Grout that was too wet, not packed in or cleaned off too hard tends to wash out early.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
Letting a property close to Charing station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.
What your quote should include
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How hidden problems are handled
Leave it or put it right?
Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but mould that has got into grout generally comes back. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. In a small place like Westwell Leacon, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
