How to look after the new joints

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
  • Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use

Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.

Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away, so regrouting early can save a retile.

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Blackwater

Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, with silicone renewed in the corners. We work on bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls, and people most often call us about shower grout that has worn away and cracked or crumbling grout lines.

In a smaller place like Blackwater, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage several properties in or around Blackwater, several properties can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.

We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.

Regrouting in Blackwater: local notes

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Homes close to St Barnabas Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Frogmore Infant School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near Blackwater station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Blackwater is about 1 mile south of Sandhurst, in Hampshire. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Blackwater can book us for regrouting, old or new, large or small.

Common questions in Blackwater

Do you cover Blackwater for regrouting?

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

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

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

What sealant do you use?

It depends on the joint: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.

What information do you need?

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How long will you be here?

That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. We will tell you when we quote.

How long should I wait before showering?

Before we leave, we will tell you how long to wait. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before they get wet.

Do you reseal at the same time?

In most cases, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.

Quotes for regrouting in Blackwater

We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:

  • The product the joint needs
  • The size of the job
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Any mould that needs treating

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How the job changes by surface

Corners and edges

We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so the whole area is finished together.

Kitchen splashbacks

We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.

What we do, step by step

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and the area is left clean. A visit to Blackwater is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  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. We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
  4. We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice

When something else is needed

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement in a stud wall or floor
  • Cracked or broken tiles

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
