Regrouting in Balstonia

Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. You might go from white to grey, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us. If you have corners filled with grout instead of silicone and shower grout that has worn away, we can put it right, on tiled floors, shower walls and kitchen splashbacks alike.

In and around Balstonia, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Should I try it myself first?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Common problems we fix in Balstonia

Hard water and soap leave a film on grout that is hard to shift. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, which is when replacing it makes sense.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

How to choose a mastic man

Surface by surface

Corners and edges

Internal corners move, so they get silicone, not grout.

Wet rooms

Wet rooms have water across the floor, so good grout is important. We check the tiles first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Balstonia

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Balstonia and across Thurrock. Several sites can be quoted together, and we’re fully insured for the work.

Letting agents and landlords in Balstonia can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.

How it works

We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a smaller place like Balstonia, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
  2. The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
  3. The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
  4. We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
  5. We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.

How to prepare

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

When can I use the shower again?

We give you a time before we leave. The wait depends on the products and conditions so please stick to it.

What does regrouting cost?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?

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

Where are you based?

Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Skip wire brushes and scourers

Use a gentle cleaner on the grout with a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.

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

Regrouting around Balstonia

Balstonia is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

If you live in an older home near Church of St Margaret of Antioch, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Letting a property close to Stanford-Le-Hope station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
