About our regrouting in Digswell

If you’ve been scrubbing grout that will not come clean, the discolouration has usually soaked into the grout. New grout is the fix that lasts, and it’s a chance to change the colour too. Common call-outs are for grout in corners that has cracked and cracked or crumbling grout lines, across bathroom wall tiles, bathroom floors and shower walls.

Homes around Digswell range from older cottages to more recent houses. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.

We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Your questions about regrouting in Digswell

Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Digswell?

Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.

Will you come out to Digswell?

Yes, Digswell is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

What sealant do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.

What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?

Flexible sealant. Grout is for the joints between tiles and moving joints need sealant.

Where are you based?

Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.

Will regrouting fix loose tiles?

New grout can’t hold loose tiles in place. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting so you know where you stand.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

The process

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Parking around Digswell is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
  2. We remove the old grout carefully.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

What affects the quote in Digswell

We don’t publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • The size of the job
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

The cost depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Where the property is

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.

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

When something else is needed

We’d rather tell you now than do work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A leaking wet room membrane
  • Movement in a stud wall or floor
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Digswell homes and their sealant

Welwyn Garden City, which Digswell is part of, was laid out as a garden city in the early twentieth century. Its homes range from the original garden city houses to later estates, and bathrooms and kitchens of every age need resealing and regrouting in time. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

If you let a flat or house near Welwyn North station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. For an older house near a landmark such as Digswell Village Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Digswell is about 1 mile north of Welwyn Garden City, in Hertfordshire. Digswell gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. Digswell is one of 381 places in Hertfordshire we cover. London is on our list too, around 23 miles away.

Work in AL8, AL7 and AL6 is quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. Whether your property is on Adele Avenue, Station Road and Hertford Road or anywhere close by, our applicators can take on the job. If you’re just outside Digswell, we cover Haldens (1 mile south-east), Harmer Green (1 mile north-east), Burnham Green (2 miles north-east), Oaklands (2 miles north) and Tewin (2 miles east). We also work in nearby towns such as Watford (14 miles south-west), Hemel Hempstead (12 miles west), Stevenage (6 miles north), St Albans (7 miles south-west), Harpenden (6 miles west) and Hitchin (10 miles north).

Local landmarks in Digswell

We work in homes and buildings around Hedgehog pub, Monk's Walk School and Danesbury Park, among other places. Digswell has its own railway station: Welwyn North station. Other landmarks nearby include Howard Centre (1.3 miles south) and Datchworth Museum (2.6 miles north-east). Open spaces near Digswell include Tewin Orchard and Hopkyns Wood.

Why deal with it now?

Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, which turns a regrout into a retile. Dealing with it now keeps it small. In an older home around Digswell, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

Combining jobs into one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Why Digswell clients choose us

  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • We leave the area clean and tidy

Keeping the joints in good condition

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

  • Rinse the tiles after showering
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Use gentle cleaners on grout
  • Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout

Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time.

Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen, so regrouting early can save a retile.

When to call us in Digswell

Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Floor grout that has worn and darkened
  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Cracked grout along the bath or tray
  • Shower grout that has worn away

Schools such as Harwood Hill Junior Mixed Infant and Nursery School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What your quote should include

  • How long to leave it before use
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • Is VAT in the price?
