When it isn’t the sealant

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
  • A structure that flexes behind the tiles

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

What we seal

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

Regrouting in Barham, done properly

Across Barham, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges. Common call-outs are for kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and floor grout that has worn and darkened, on bathroom floors, wet rooms and shower walls.

Around Barham, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we have gone.

Different surfaces, different methods

Shower walls

A shower wall is soaked daily, so grout there works hardest. It’s often the first place grout washes out.

Bathroom wall tiles

Walls outside the shower get less water but grout there still discolours. New grout freshens them up.

What regrouting looks like in Barham

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.

If you look after a building such as Barham Church of England Primary School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Snowdown station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St John the Baptist, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we look over the joints with you first. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere as small as Barham, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
  2. We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
  3. The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
  4. New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Why act early in Barham

Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We’ll tell you before any work starts, so you can decide what to do. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. Around Barham, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Why book with us

  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish

Quotes for regrouting in Barham

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Any working-time requirements on site

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What to tell us for a quote

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • The problem you’ve noticed

There’s no standard price list. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

How to look after the new joints

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower

Have any tile that moves checked right away. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.

Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.

Common questions in Barham

Do you cover smaller places like Barham?

Yes. Barham is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you do regrouting in Barham?

Yes, Barham is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Will regrouting fix loose tiles?

Tiles that have come away need sorting first. We’ll point them out before any grout comes out.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What should I tell you?

Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

Do you reseal at the same time?

Yes, in most cases. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and could still leak.

Are you fully insured?

What guarantee comes with the work?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

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.
