Why it’s worth doing now in Brick End

Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Brick End, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Regrouting in Brick End

A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us. If you’re dealing with grout in a colour the owner wants to change and greasy, stained grout behind the hob, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

Homes around Brick End are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Your questions about regrouting in Brick End

Will you come out to Brick End?

Yes, Brick End is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Stansted Airport station?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises. Working times can be discussed when we quote.

What should I tell you?

Tell us what needs doing and where, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What does regrouting cost?

Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. To get one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing and where.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.

How we quote for regrouting

There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Access and height
  • The type of sealant required
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

What to tell us for a quote

When you call or email, it’s useful to know:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Where the property is
  • Photos by email, if that is easy

Need a quote? Please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details. You’ll know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.

What regrouting looks like in Brick End

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.

If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary the Virgin, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you let a flat or house near Stansted Airport station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Surface by surface

Bathroom floors

Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. Floor-to-wall and bath joints are sealed, not grouted.

Bathroom wall tiles

Tiles away from the shower stay drier but still stain and crack. New grout freshens them up.

The process

A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, do the work and tidy away. It generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere as small as Brick End, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. We remove the old grout carefully.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
  5. Internal corners and edges are resealed.

How to prepare

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Mention any tricky access
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice

When it is not the sealant

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:

  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • A leaking wet room membrane
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we seal

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

How to look after the new joints

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Rinse the tiles after showering
  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
  • Wipe water off the walls when you are done
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one

A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.

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.
