About our regrouting in Colney Heath

A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so nothing is ripped out. Typical jobs include cracked or crumbling grout lines and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned, across tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles.

Homes around Colney Heath are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Can I do it myself?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

The process

When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before work begins. The work generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere as small as Colney Heath, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
  • Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout

Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers because they wear grout away.

Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward, before the joints open up.

What affects the quote in Colney Heath

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Access and height
  • Any working-time requirements on site

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

For regrouting in Colney Heath, call 0345 464 0079 or email us. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we’ll agree the price before any work begins.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
  • A structure that flexes behind the tiles
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout

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

Why it’s worth doing now in Colney Heath

New grout smeared over the old does not bond well. A thin skin on top tends to break off. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Colney Heath, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Why us?

  • 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
  • Tidy, careful work
  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • Old sealant always removed completely

What regrouting looks like in Colney Heath

Colney Heath is part of Hatfield, one of the post-war new towns. With many homes dating from the post-war decades, plenty of bathrooms have been resealed or refitted more than once. Sealant laid over old sealant never bonds properly, so it all has to come out. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Colney Heath. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.

Schools such as Colney Heath Junior Mixed Infant and Nursery School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. For landlords with property near Welham Green station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mark, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
