Tile Repair & Re-Grouting

Cracked, hollow or discoloured tiles are not just unsightly — they can allow moisture to penetrate behind the tiling, particularly in wet areas, leading to more serious structural problems. A professional tiler can replace individual tiles, re-grout entire areas, apply new silicone beads and re-seal natural stone to restore the appearance and water resistance of existing tiling.

Re-grouting is one of the most effective ways to refresh the look of older tiling without the cost and disruption of a full retile. The old grout is removed with an oscillating grout rake, the joints are cleaned and the new grout is applied. The result is a clean, fresh appearance at a fraction of the cost of new tiles.

What’s involved

  • ✓ Inspection to identify cracked, hollow or loose tiles
  • ✓ Careful tile removal to preserve surrounding tiles
  • ✓ Adhesive preparation and replacement tile fitting
  • ✓ Grout raking and removal for re-grouting
  • ✓ New grout application and finishing
  • ✓ Silicone bead removal and replacement at all internal corners

Typical costs

Individual tile replacement: £50–£150 per tile depending on complexity. Re-grouting: £10–£20 per m². Full silicone replacement in a bathroom: £80–£200.

FAQs — Tile Repair & Re-Grouting

Can a single cracked tile be replaced without disturbing others?
Usually yes. A skilled tiler can cut out the cracked tile with an angle grinder and oscillating tool, remove it without damaging the surrounding tiles, and fit a replacement. The challenge is matching an existing tile if it is from an old batch or discontinued range.
How do I know if tiles are hollow?
Tap the tile with your knuckle. A hollow sound (rather than a solid thud) indicates the adhesive has failed. Hollow tiles will eventually crack and, in wet areas, allow water penetration. A tiler can confirm this and advise on whether individual tiles or a larger area need addressing.
How often should bathroom silicone be replaced?
Bathroom silicone should be checked annually. Black mould growing through silicone cannot be removed by cleaning — the silicone must be replaced. Well-applied silicone in a regularly cleaned bathroom typically lasts 5–10 years before it needs replacing.
Can grout be whitened without removing it?
Grout whiteners and sealers can refresh the appearance of lightly discoloured grout. However, severely discoloured or mouldy grout cannot be permanently restored by surface treatment — raking out and regrouting is the only effective long-term solution.
How much does tile repair cost?
Individual tile replacement typically costs £50–£150 per tile. Re-grouting costs £10–£20 per m². Silicone replacement in a bathroom costs £80–£200. Get quotes from local tilers for your specific repair.
