Regrouting near Deacon's Hill

Should I try it myself first?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.

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

About our regrouting in Deacon's Hill

Grout is the filler between your tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. If you have cracked or crumbling grout lines and discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles, we can put it right, on kitchen splashbacks, tiled floors and bathroom floors alike.

In a village or hamlet like Deacon's Hill, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Movement in a stud wall or floor
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Why it’s worth doing now in Deacon's Hill

It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but the patches often do not match and the old grout carries on failing. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Older cottages and farmhouses around Deacon's Hill can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What it costs depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start.

Regrouting in Deacon's Hill: local notes

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.

Managing a site like Summerswood Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you live in an older home near Church of St Nicholas, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Questions from Deacon's Hill

Do you cover Deacon's Hill for regrouting?

Yes, Deacon's Hill is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing.

Do you cover smaller places like Deacon's Hill?

Yes, Deacon's Hill is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first.

Where are you based?

We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

What should I tell you?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.

What if some of my tiles are loose?

Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Grout on its own won’t fix that, and we will tell you before we start.

Will there be a smell?

Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.

Surface by surface

Shower walls

A shower wall is soaked daily, so its grout takes the most punishment. It’s often the first place grout washes out.

Bathroom floors

Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It gets worn and dirty.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. For a village or hamlet like Deacon's Hill, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
  2. Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
  3. We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
  4. New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

When to call us in Deacon's Hill

Poor ventilation keeps grout damp, and damp grout is where mould grows. When black spots keep returning, the mould has generally got into the grout.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Floor grout that has worn and darkened
  • Grout that is cracking and breaking up
  • Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
  • Grout washed out of a shower
