What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.
Bathroom wall tiles
Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on size. You can change the colour at the same time.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Wickford
Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. Typical jobs include a grout colour that no longer suits the room and corners filled with grout instead of silicone, on wet rooms, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom floors.
Plenty of homes in a town like Wickford have had new bathrooms and kitchens over the years, some more than once. Sealant run over the top of an old bead is a common cause of leaks and mould, which is why all the old material has to come out first.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Can I do it myself?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
Why it’s worth doing now in Wickford
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, which turns a regrout into a retile. Dealing with it now keeps it small. In Wickford, as anywhere, most leaks start as a small gap in a joint, and they’re far easier to fix early.

What regrouting looks like in Wickford
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Oakfield Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers because they wear grout away.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
What we are called out for in Wickford
Soap scum and limescale build up on grout and stick to it. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, which is when replacing it makes sense.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
In the older streets around St Andrew, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
