Regrouting in Gravesend

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Gravesend

Regrouting is normally paired with resealing. Grout belongs between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. Typical jobs include grout in corners that has cracked and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, across wet rooms, shower walls and tiled floors.

Most bathrooms in a town like Gravesend are in family homes, used every day, where sealant and grout take a lot of daily wear. The usual signs are mould in the bead, gaps by the sink and grout that is cracked or stained.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Gravesend

Gravesend is within about 2 miles of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Schools such as Whitehill Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Letting a property close to Gravesend station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. Homes close to Christ Church Milton include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
  • Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
  • Skip wire brushes and scourers

We will tell you when the area can be used again. Stick to that time, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.

Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen, so regrouting early can save a retile.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gravesend

If you manage several properties in or around Gravesend, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.

How the job changes by surface

Corners and edges

Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout there would crack.

Shower walls

A shower wall is soaked daily, so its grout takes the most punishment. It normally fails first.

How we quote for regrouting

You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • How many areas need sealing

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.

Asking for a quote

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll take it from there.

Can I do it myself?

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

What we do, step by step

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Parking in a town like Gravesend is generally straightforward, but tell us if there’s a driveway or any restrictions, and mention if the work is upstairs, in a flat or high on the outside.

  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. Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
  4. We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
  5. We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

FAQs for Gravesend

Do you cover Gravesend for regrouting?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Gravesend is part of that. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job.

Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Gravesend?

Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.

Can tenants book the work?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?

Corners get silicone, not grout. They move slightly, and grout there cracks.

Is resealing included with regrouting?

Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and it’s all in the quote.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Our base is Crawley, with over 20 years’ experience. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?

New grout cannot hold loose tiles in place. We check the tiles first and tell you if any are loose or hollow so you know where you stand.

What sealant work can’t fix

We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • A structure that flexes behind the tiles
  • A leaking wet room membrane

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