How we handle regrouting in Westwood
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout belongs between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. If you have good tiles let down by tired grout and grout in a colour the owner wants to change, we can help, on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and tiled floors alike.
Around Westwood, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Helping us quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Whether it has been sealed before
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area and we leave things clean and tidy. In a smaller place like Westwood, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

What regrouting looks like in Westwood
Westwood is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Homes close to Parish Church of St John the Baptist include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you look after a building such as St Gregory's Catholic Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What we are called out for in Westwood
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.
Look out for any of the following:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
For landlords with property near Margate station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is
- What insurance they hold
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- Whether you can choose the colour
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward, before the joints open up.
