Aldham questions

Is Aldham within the area you cover?
Yes. Aldham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Aldham.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
Tiles that have come away need sorting first. We will show you which ones before any grout comes out.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or the area where the grout has gone.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Normally, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Flexible sealant. Grout is for the joints between tiles and moving joints need sealant.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Aldham
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water has a way in behind the tiling. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. Typical jobs include grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and corners filled with grout instead of silicone, on tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles.
Being in a small place like Aldham makes no difference to the job itself: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

- Bathroom floors
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Wet rooms
- Shower walls
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Tiled floors
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We renew both.
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so its grout takes the most punishment. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
Aldham homes and their sealant
Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.
In the older streets around Church of St Margaret and St Catherine, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you look after a building such as Holy Trinity CofE Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Should I try it myself first?
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.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Advice
What we are called out for in Aldham
Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.
The most common problems we see are:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Grout washed out of a shower
For landlords with property near Marks Tey station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

How to look after the new joints
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window to help it dry out.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.
