How we handle regrouting in Chiltington

Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout belongs between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they need flexible silicone instead. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. Typical jobs include grout that makes sound tiles look old and shower grout that has worn away, on bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls.

Being in a small place like Chiltington makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

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

What we can’t put right

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • A leaking shower valve or waste

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

What we seal

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

Chiltington homes and their sealant

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 The Parish Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Chailey School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Cooksbridge station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

DIY versus a professional finish

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What affects the quote in Chiltington

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

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The product the joint needs
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Working hours on commercial sites

The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts.

Helping us quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Where the property is
  • The rough size of the job

We do not publish a price list. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What happens if it’s left?

Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but mould that has got into grout generally comes back. Replacing the grout and resealing the edges is a lasting fix. In a small place like Chiltington, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

The process

Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like Chiltington, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Getting a quote

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.

How to look after the new joints

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:

  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
  • Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
  • Have loose tiles looked at early
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use

We will tell you when the area can be used again. Stick to that time, and go gently on the grout at first.

Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.

What if some of my tiles are loose?

Loose tiles need refixing before regrouting. We will point them out before any grout comes out.

Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?

Yes. Many customers do. Darker grout can hide marks, while lighter grout brightens a room.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, it will not last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

Is it messy?

Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.

Does someone need to be in?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
