What we can’t put right

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:

  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • Damaged tiles that need replacing
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Regrouting in Home Farm

Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so nothing is ripped out. If you’re dealing with floor grout that has worn and darkened and old grout in a dated colour, we can help, on tiled floors, shower walls and wet rooms alike.

Homes around Home Farm are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Should I try it myself first?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

The process

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Home Farm, access is generally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  2. We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
  3. The joints are vacuumed clean.
  4. New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
  5. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

Before we arrive

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Home Farm questions

Do you cover smaller places like Home Farm?

Yes, Home Farm is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bracknell station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Can you change the grout colour?

Yes. Many customers do. Darker grout can hide marks and lighter grout gives a fresher look.

Should I try DIY first?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

How long will you be here?

Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we’re fully insured.

Which products do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Home Farm

Landlords and agents in Home Farm can book us as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Have loose tiles looked at early
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one

Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.

Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

What affects the quote in Home Farm

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

What we need to know

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Please mention:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that’s easy.

What regrouting looks like in Home Farm

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Bracknell, which Home Farm is part of, is one of England’s post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. New sealant won’t stick to old, so the old layers have to come out first.

Homes close to St Michael and St Mary Magdalene's Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Rented homes near Bracknell station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. If you look after a building such as Wooden Hill Primary and Nursery School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Home Farm is about 1 mile north-east of Crowthorne, in Bracknell Forest. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Home Farm is covered for regrouting. The work is guaranteed for a year.

Wet rooms

Both the grout and the silicone in a wet room matter. We renew both.

Bathroom wall tiles

Tiles away from the shower stay drier but still stain and crack. Regrouting brings them back in line.
