Regrouting in Combe

We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. If you are dealing with floor grout that won’t come clean and grout in corners that has cracked, we can help, whatever the surface.

Somewhere as small as Combe, 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.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll give you a quote.

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

Can I do it myself?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • A structure that flexes behind the tiles

If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

Why it’s worth doing now in Combe

It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but the patches often do not match and the old grout carries on failing. Regrouting the whole area gives an even, lasting finish. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Combe, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and give you a clear quote before work begins.

How the visit works

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on how much there is to do. In a small place like Combe, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
  3. We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
  4. Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
  5. Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Common problems we fix in Combe

Poor ventilation keeps grout damp, giving mould a place to grow. When black spots keep returning, the mould has usually got into the grout.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Splashback grout that has darkened
  • Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
  • Grout in corners that has cracked
  • Floor grout that has worn and darkened

For an older house near a landmark such as St Laurence's Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is chosen
  • Whether VAT is included
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it

Regrouting in Combe: local notes

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

Schools such as Combe CofE Primary School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
