Regrouting in Hersden

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 phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. If you’re dealing with discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and gaps where the shower grout has gone, we can help, on shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms alike.

Smaller places like Hersden still have plenty of bathrooms that work hard every day. Whether it’s a cottage bathroom or a newer en suite, the approach is the same: all the old material out, the joint cleaned and dried, then new sealant or grout.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Hersden and everywhere else we cover.

Landlord and commercial work in Hersden

Landlords and agents in Hersden can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What we are called out for in Hersden

Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly can wash out within a few years.

The problems people usually mention when they call include:

  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Floor grout that has worn and darkened
  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room

If you let a flat or house near Sturry station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

When something else is needed

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:

  • Damaged tiles that need replacing
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • Tiles that have come away from the wall

If you are not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

What happens if it’s left?

Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but patched grout rarely matches the rest, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Regrouting the whole area gives an even, lasting finish. In a smaller place like Hersden, wherever a wall is exposed, a failed outside joint is a real source of damp. Inside, a split seal lets water into floors and panels just as it would anywhere.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a smaller place like Hersden, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
  2. We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
  3. The joints are vacuumed clean.
  4. We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
  5. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

How to prepare

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Surface by surface

Bathroom wall tiles

Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on size. You can change the colour at the same time.

Shower walls

A shower wall is soaked daily, so grout there works hardest. It usually fails first.

Aftercare tips

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Wipe water off the walls when you are done
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Use gentle cleaners on grout
  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower

We’ll 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.

Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Hersden

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Hersden Village Primary School, 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. In the older streets around Church of All Saints, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Common questions in Hersden

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

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details for a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Hersden?

Yes. Hersden is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Is resealing included with regrouting?

In most cases, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, it will not last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. The old sealant has to come out completely.

Where is Mr Mastic based?

Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Hersden and the rest of Kent, along with the rest of our area.

Which products do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
