What sealant work can’t fix

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Movement in a stud wall or floor
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)

About our regrouting in Barcombe Cross

Across Barcombe Cross, 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 cracked grout along the bath or tray, we can help, whatever the surface.

Somewhere as small as Barcombe Cross, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Do you need regrouting in Barcombe Cross?

Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Shower grout that has worn away
  • Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean

In the older streets around St Francis of Assisi, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Before booking anyone

  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • How the colour is chosen
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and commercial work in Barcombe Cross

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.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Can I do it myself?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

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.

Regrouting in Barcombe Cross: local notes

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Letting a property close to Cooksbridge station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. Schools such as Barcombe Church of England Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What happens on the day

Our applicators work methodically: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, and the area is left clean. Somewhere like Barcombe Cross needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  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. Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
  4. Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
  5. Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.

Before we arrive

  • Move anything stored near the joints

Advice

Leave it or put it right?

Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Around Barcombe Cross, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

Surface by surface

Bathroom wall tiles

Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.

Corners and edges

The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout there would crack.

Common questions in Barcombe Cross

Do you cover smaller places like Barcombe Cross?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Cooksbridge station?

How long does the job take?

Do you guarantee regrouting?

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

What if some of my tiles are loose?

Regrouting will not fix loose tiles. We check the tiles first and tell you if any are loose or hollow so you know where you stand.

What do you put in the joint?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. We can talk about working times when we quote.
