Regrouting in Broughton Crossing

We cover Broughton Crossing for raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.

  • Crumbling grout between the tiles
  • Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
  • Floor grout that will not come clean

Regrouting in Broughton Crossing

Different surfaces, different methods

Bathroom wall tiles

Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.

Corners and edges

Corners flex as the building moves, so we seal them rather than grout them.

About our regrouting in Broughton Crossing

We work across Broughton Crossing, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, and we finish by resealing the edges. Typical jobs include grout that makes sound tiles look old and dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor, on wet rooms, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls.

Somewhere as small as Broughton Crossing, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Can I do it myself?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Regrouting around Broughton Crossing

Broughton Crossing has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Managing a site like Bierton Church of England Combined School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St James, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Aftercare tips

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the fan on after showering
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one

Have any tile that moves checked straight away. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.

Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.

What we are called out for in Broughton Crossing

Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Shower grout that has worn away
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Grout that’s cracking and breaking up

Letting a property close to Aylesbury station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

The process

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including the tidy-up. Somewhere as small as Broughton Crossing, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  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. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Preparing for the visit

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

FAQs for Broughton Crossing

Do you take on hotel work around Broughton Crossing?

Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.

Is Broughton Crossing within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

What information do you need?

A short description and the location, plus pictures if you have them. If we need more, we will ask.

Is it messy?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

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

Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?

It can. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint, not just the surface.

Will there be a smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

Do I need to be at home?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
  • A leaking shower valve or waste

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer.
