Regrouting near Hempstead

How we handle regrouting in Hempstead

Across Hempstead, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. If you’re dealing with grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and floor grout that has worn and darkened, we can put it right.

Homes around Hempstead are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Can I do it myself?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

How the visit works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere as small as Hempstead, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the work
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

What the job involves on each surface

Bathroom wall tiles

Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.

Corners and edges

The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.

Regrouting in Hempstead: local notes

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Homes close to Church of St Andrew include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Hempstead: your questions answered

Do you cover Hempstead for regrouting?

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

Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Hempstead?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.

Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?

Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or just the joints that have failed.

Will there be a smell?

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

Can you change the grout colour?

Yes. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint rather than sitting on top.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.

Do you reseal at the same time?

Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and include it in your quote.

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
  • Tiles that are chipped or split
  • A leaking shower valve or waste

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

What we are called out for in Hempstead

Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
  • Cracked or crumbling grout lines

In and around Hempstead, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
