How we handle regrouting in Westwood
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. We work on tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are good tiles let down by tired grout and old grout in a dated colour.
Being in a small place like Westwood makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Westwood and everywhere else we cover.

Why deal with it now?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and the room is out of use for longer. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Westwood, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Questions from Westwood
Can you do regrouting in Westwood?
Yes, Westwood is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Westwood within the area you cover?
Yes. Westwood is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
How long does regrouting take?
It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.
Do you grout the corners?
Silicone. Grout is for the joints between tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. We’re also fully insured.
How the job changes by surface
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.
Kitchen splashbacks
The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.

What happens on the day
We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on. The job usually takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Westwood, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
How to prepare
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Westwood homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Bean Primary 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 Longfield station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

What we are called out for in Westwood
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.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
In the older streets around Church of Saint Mary Magdalene, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
When something else is needed
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before booking.
