Trusted regrouting in Ashurst

When to call us in Ashurst

Hard water and soap leave a film on grout and stick to it. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, which is when replacing it makes sense.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone

For an older house near a landmark such as The Parish Church of St James, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

How to choose a mastic man

Regrouting in Ashurst

Across Ashurst, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, finished with new silicone at the edges. If you have cracked or crumbling grout lines and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, we can help, on bathroom floors, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles alike.

For a small place like Ashurst, regrouting is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Our work is backed for twelve months.

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
  • Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
  • Use gentle cleaners on grout
  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower

Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

Your questions about regrouting in Ashurst

Can you do regrouting in Ashurst?

Yes, Ashurst is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.

Is regrouting in Ashurst guaranteed?

All our work, in Ashurst and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Can I do it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

How much does regrouting cost in Ashurst?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We explain the product when we quote.

How long does the job take?

Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including preparation and clearing up. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

The process

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere as small as Ashurst, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  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. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details and send pictures if you have them.

Why deal with it now?

Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They don’t fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. In a small place like Ashurst, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Why Ashurst customers choose us

  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • Over 20 years’ experience

For landlords and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

What sealant work can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Tiles that are chipped or split
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in a stud wall or floor

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we seal

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

DIY versus a professional finish

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

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

What regrouting looks like in Ashurst

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Managing a site like Ashurst CofE Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
