Regrouting in Bardfield Saling

We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. We work on tiled floors, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are gaps where the shower grout has gone and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean.

Homes around Bardfield Saling are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

The process

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a small place like Bardfield Saling, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  2. We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
  3. We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
  4. New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
  5. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

When to call us in Bardfield Saling

Grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Grout that makes sound tiles look old
  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
  • Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease

Homes close to Church of St Peter and St Paul include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it
  • Whether VAT is included
  • Are they insured?
  • How the colour is chosen

Choosing a sealant specialist

Different surfaces, different methods

Corners and edges

Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout there would crack.

Wet rooms

Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It does not repair failed tanking underneath.

Quotes for regrouting in Bardfield Saling

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The size of the job

The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • If someone has resealed it before

Call for a quick quote, or email us if that is easier. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved and send you a clear quote.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Common questions in Bardfield Saling

Do you cover Bardfield Saling for regrouting?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Bardfield Saling is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

Is regrouting in Bardfield Saling guaranteed?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?

Normally we do both. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so we renew both and include it in your quote.

Do the sealants smell?

Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll tell you on the day. It depends on the grout and the sealant used so please stick to it.

What does regrouting cost?

We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before we start.

What sealant do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.

How to look after the new joints

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

  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
  • Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
  • Keep the fan on after showering
  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls

Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.

Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
