Regrouting in Egerton Forstal, done properly

Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. We work on shower walls, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are crumbling grout between the tiles and grout washed out of a shower.

For a small place like Egerton Forstal, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Big or small, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.

What the job involves on each surface

Kitchen splashbacks

The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.

Bathroom floors

If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.

How to look after the new joints

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one

A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.

Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.

How the visit works

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Somewhere like Egerton Forstal needs a little journey planning: 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. First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a quote

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Egerton Forstal

Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before any work starts.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Grout that makes sound tiles look old
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St James, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Choosing a sealant specialist

DIY versus a professional finish

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.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Why act early in Egerton Forstal

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. Older cottages and farmhouses around Egerton Forstal can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Your questions about regrouting in Egerton Forstal

Can you do regrouting in Egerton Forstal?

Yes, Egerton Forstal is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job.

Is Egerton Forstal within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll tell you on the day. It depends on the grout and the sealant used, so follow the time we give you.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we are fully insured.

What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?

We use silicone in corners and along edges. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.

How long does regrouting take?

That depends on the amount of work, but most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

Do you reseal at the same time?

Normally we do both. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so we renew both and include it in your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
