How we quote for regrouting

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The number and length of the joints
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • The address or postcode of the job

For a quote, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us where the job is and what the problem looks like. We will give you a clear price before any work starts.

How we handle regrouting in Cross-at-Hand

Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water has a way in behind the tiling. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. If you’re dealing with floor grout that won’t come clean and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, we can help.

Homes around Cross-at-Hand are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Why it’s worth doing now in Cross-at-Hand

Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. Replacing the grout and resealing the edges is a lasting fix. In a small place like Cross-at-Hand, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
  • Rinse the tiles after showering
  • Have loose tiles looked at early
  • Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal

Have any tile that moves checked right away. A loose tile cracks the grout around it 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.

The process

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area in most cases. Somewhere as small as Cross-at-Hand, 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. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

How to prepare

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Mention any tricky access
