Regrouting in Boars Hill

Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. We are often asked to deal with grout that’s cracking and breaking up and discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles, on tiled floors, shower walls and bathroom floors.

Homes around Boars Hill are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

The process

At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself usually takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on how much there is to do. Somewhere like Boars Hill needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. 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. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice

Your questions about regrouting in Boars Hill

Is Boars Hill within the area you cover?

Yes, Boars Hill is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Do you work for landlords with property near Oxford station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before work begins.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.

What sealant do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.

Is it messy?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Do you guarantee regrouting?

Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. We’re also fully insured.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, we can. More than one area can be quoted together.

Do the sealants smell?

It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.

When to call us in Boars Hill

Grout that was put in corners cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
  • Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Peter, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What your quote should include

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • The length of the guarantee
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • What happens if the job turns out different

What affects the quote in Boars Hill

The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • The amount of work
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The product the joint needs

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. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • The rough size of the job

We don’t publish a price list, because every job is different. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To get started, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Tiles that are chipped or split
  • Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

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

For landlords and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Boars Hill and across Oxfordshire. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured for the work.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can go on one quote.

What regrouting looks like in Boars Hill

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Letting a property close to Oxford station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wootton St Peter's Church of England Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Leave it or put it right?

If tiles are loose, regrouting alone is not the answer. We will tell you before we start so you know what’s involved. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. Around Boars Hill, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

Why book with us

  • Full insurance on every job

Aftercare tips

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

  • Use gentle cleaners on grout
  • Check the corner silicone every few months
  • Skip wire brushes and scourers
  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower

Use a gentle cleaner on the grout with a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.

Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.
