- The type of property
- How we’d reach the joints

How we handle regrouting in Westwood
Before any work starts, the tiles are checked. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout can’t fix a problem underneath. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. Common call-outs are for crumbling grout between the tiles and grout in a colour the owner wants to change, across shower walls, bathroom floors and tiled floors.
Around Westwood, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Regrouting around Westwood
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Church of St Peter and St Paul, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Common questions in Westwood
Do you work for landlords with property near Bekesbourne station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
Is Westwood in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Westwood is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we are fully insured.
Is the work guaranteed?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. We are also fully insured.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or just the joints that have failed.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
What we are called out for in Westwood
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, until the joints are rough and low.
People generally contact us after spotting something like this:
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
Rented homes near Bekesbourne station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether VAT is included
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
The process
Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere as small as Westwood, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- 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.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Preparing for the visit
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Landlord and commercial work in Westwood
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
