Regrouting in Hell Corner

About our regrouting in Hell Corner

Across Hell Corner, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges. If you have cracked grout along the bath or tray and crumbling grout between the tiles, we can help, whatever the surface.

Around Hell Corner, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

For landlords and businesses

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

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. Several sites can be quoted together, and we’re fully insured.

Hell Corner questions

I let a flat near Kintbury station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.

Will you come out to Hell Corner?

Yes, Hell Corner is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.

Is it messy?

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.

What should I tell you?

Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?

We give you a time before we leave. It depends on the grout and the sealant used so please stick to it.

Do I have to be there?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.

What happens if it’s left?

Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. In a small place like Hell Corner, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

What you get with us

  • A 12-month guarantee on all work
  • Full insurance on every job

When it isn’t the sealant

In fairness, some problems need a different trade:

  • Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • A leaking wet room membrane

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

Where we work in Hell Corner

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

What we do, step by step

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room and we leave things clean and tidy. In a small place like Hell Corner, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
  2. We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
  3. Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
  4. Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

How to prepare

  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
  • Use gentle cleaners on grout
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one

Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.

If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.

What affects the quote in Hell Corner

There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Whether the work is at height
  • The amount of work
  • When we can work, for business premises

The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

What we need to know

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

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • The type of property
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you are ready, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Hell Corner homes and their sealant

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Homes close to Church of St Laurence include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. If you let a flat or house near Kintbury station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. Managing a site like Inkpen Primary School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Kitchen splashbacks

Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.

Wet rooms

Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We renew both.
