Different surfaces, different methods

Bathroom wall tiles

We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on the area. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.

Wet rooms

In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so sound grout really matters. We check the tiles first.

About our regrouting in Church End

We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout cannot fix a problem underneath. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. We work on bathroom floors, shower walls and kitchen splashbacks, and people most often call us about gaps where the shower grout has gone and old grout in a dated colour.

Homes around Church End 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.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

How the visit works

Good joint work is mostly preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere as small as Church End, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
  4. We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Clear the area around the work
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should I try it myself first?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

Regrouting in Church End: local notes

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

If you live in an older home near Church of All Saints, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Rented homes near Great Chesterford station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. Schools such as Ashdon Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Why it’s worth doing now in Church End

Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In a small place like Church End, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first.

Questions from Church End

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Great Chesterford station?

Is Church End in your area for regrouting?

How long does the job take?

A typical job takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Do you reseal at the same time?

Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and wouldn’t keep water out.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll tell you on the day. It depends on the grout and the sealant used, so follow the time we give you.

Are you insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.

When it isn’t the sealant

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • A leaking wet room membrane
  • Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
  • Movement in a stud wall or floor

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How to look after the new joints

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

  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
  • Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
  • Wipe water off the walls when you are done

Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. Corners flex, so it’s usually the first thing to need attention, long before the grout does.

Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
