Regrouting in Barford

Surface by surface

Kitchen splashbacks

Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Stained grout is best replaced.

Bathroom floors

Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It wears and darkens over time.

Regrouting in Barford

Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. We work on bathroom wall tiles, bathroom floors and shower walls, and the jobs we see most are old grout in a dated colour and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease.

Around Barford, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

Our work is backed for twelve months.

When to call us in Barford

A poor original job is a common cause. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly tends to wash out early.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Splashback grout that has darkened
  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Floor grout that will not come clean
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone

Rented homes near Haslemere station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Your questions about regrouting in Barford

Do you cover smaller places like Barford?

Yes, Barford is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

I let a flat near Haslemere station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.

Do you grout the corners?

Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in those joints cracks as the building moves.

What sealant do you use?

The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Is it messy?

We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.

Can you change the grout colour?

Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How we quote for regrouting

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Whether the work is at height
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What to tell us for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

Want a quote for regrouting? Please phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the job. We will explain what we’d do and send you a clear quote before work begins.

DIY versus a professional finish

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • A leaking shower valve or waste
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Regrouting in Barford: local notes

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

Homes close to St John the Evangelist include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Schools such as St John's CofE Aided Infant School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Look at the sealant in the corners now and then

Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. Corners flex, so the sealant there will need renewing in time.

If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
