Your questions about regrouting in Addiebrownhill
Will you come out to Addiebrownhill?

Can you seal over the old sealant?

Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Is it messy?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

How long does regrouting take?

Regrouting in Addiebrownhill, done properly
Before work begins, the tiles are checked. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout can’t fix a problem underneath. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. We work on bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are splashback grout that has darkened and grout that’s cracking and breaking up.
For a place like Addiebrownhill, the job is the same as anywhere: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
You get a 12-month guarantee, the same in Addiebrownhill as everywhere else we work.

Can I do it myself?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Check the corner silicone every few months
If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and lets water in.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
Regrouting in Addiebrownhill: local notes
Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
For an older house near a landmark such as Addiewell Church Of Scotland, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We point that out first, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. We’ll give you a clear price for the lot.
