Common questions in Albury

What guarantee comes with regrouting in Albury?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Is Albury in your area for regrouting?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Albury is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Are you insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?

Yes, plenty of people choose to. Darker grout can hide marks, while lighter grout brightens a room.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.

How much does regrouting cost in Albury?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.

Regrouting in Albury

Across Albury, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges. We’re often asked to deal with grout that makes sound tiles look old and grout in a colour the owner wants to change, on tiled floors, bathroom floors and shower walls.

Homes around Albury are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
  • Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls

Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. Corners flex, so it’s usually the first thing to need attention, long before the grout does.

Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.

For landlords and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

Letting agents and landlords in Albury can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

What happens if it’s left?

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. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Albury, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • A leaking wet room membrane

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Bathroom wall tiles
  • Wet rooms
  • Bathroom floors
  • Tiled floors
  • Kitchen splashbacks
  • Shower walls

Can I do it myself?

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.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

How it works

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. For a village or hamlet like Albury, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  2. The old grout is removed to an even depth.
  3. The joints are vacuumed clean.
  4. New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
  5. We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

Before we arrive

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice

What regrouting looks like in Albury

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

If you live in an older home near Church of St Helen, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. In and around Albury, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
