Regrouting in Benover

Regrouting in Benover, done properly

Before we start, the tiles are checked. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. If you’re dealing with grout that’s cracking and breaking up and dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor, we can help, on bathroom wall tiles, bathroom floors and wet rooms alike.

Around Benover, it’s 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.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

How the job changes by surface

Shower walls

The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We rake it out and regrout and renew the silicone at the edges.

Bathroom wall tiles

We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on the area. You can change the colour at the same time.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout

Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.

Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak, so get it looked at when you notice it.

Benover: your questions answered

Is Benover within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is Benover in your area for regrouting?

Yes, Benover is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Can you change the grout colour?

Yes. Many customers do. Darker grout can hide marks and lighter grout gives a fresher look.

When can I use the shower again?

It varies with the products and the room. We will tell you exactly how long at the end of the visit.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is usually more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. Domestic, commercial and hotel work are all part of what we do.

Do you reseal at the same time?

Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and could still leak.

How the visit works

At the end, we look at the finished work together. The visit itself generally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, depending on the amount of work. For a village or hamlet like Benover, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
  2. We remove the old grout carefully.
  3. The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
  4. We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
  5. Internal corners and edges are resealed.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Clear the area around the work
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

How we quote for regrouting

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The size of the job
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

What to tell us for a quote

What to tell us when you ask for a quote:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • A few photos by email, if you can

For regrouting in Benover, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Benover

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hunton Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For an older house near a landmark such as St Peter's and St Paul's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Letting a property close to Yalding station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

What happens if it’s left?

New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In a small place like Benover, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
