Regrouting in Botley

What happens on the day

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Parking around Botley is usually easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.

  1. We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
  2. The old grout is removed to an even depth.
  3. We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
  4. New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
  5. We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

Advice

Regrouting in Botley, done properly

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 work on shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles, and people most often call us about stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and a grout colour that no longer suits the room.

In and around Botley, older properties sit alongside newer ones. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.

All our work comes with a 12-month guarantee.

Regrouting in Botley: 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.

Managing a site like Botley Church of England Controlled Primary School? Then 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. Letting a property close to Botley station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

How to look after the new joints

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Rinse the tiles after showering
  • Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
  • Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering

Have any tile that moves checked straight away. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and open a path for water.

Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone is not enough so early action pays.

Questions from Botley

Do you cover smaller places like Botley?

Yes. Botley is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across 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 Botley?

Yes, Botley is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us what needs doing.

Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?

If tiles are loose, something behind them has usually failed. Grout on its own will not fix that, and we’ll tell you before any work starts.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.

Is resealing included with regrouting?

Normally we do both. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and include it in your quote.

What should I tell you?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.

When to call us in Botley

Poor ventilation keeps grout damp, and damp grout is where mould grows. When black spots keep returning, the mould has usually got into the grout.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Floor grout that will not come clean
  • Grout that makes sound tiles look old
  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Old grout in a dated colour

If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are

What the job involves on each surface

Corners and edges

Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.

Kitchen splashbacks

A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.

DIY versus a professional finish

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.
