Regrouting near Horley

About our regrouting in Horley

Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, without damaging the edges of the tiles. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, and the corners get fresh silicone. If you’re dealing with stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and grout in corners that has cracked, we can help.

Homes around Horley 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.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

The process

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Horley, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
  3. The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
  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.

Advice

Surface by surface

Shower walls

Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.

Bathroom wall tiles

Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.

Your questions about regrouting in Horley

Do you cover Horley for regrouting?

Yes, Horley is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.

Will you come out to Horley?

Yes, Horley is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, we do. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we are fully insured.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Is there any odour?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?

Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or the area where the grout has gone.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.

How long should I wait before showering?

It varies with the products and the room. We’ll give you a time to follow at the end of the visit.

How we quote for regrouting

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

  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • How much there is to do
  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • The product the joint needs

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

What we need to know

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

  • Where the property is
  • The rough size of the job
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • The type of property

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you’re ready, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Landlord and commercial work in Horley

Letting agents and landlords in Horley can book us as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

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

Why it’s worth doing now in Horley

Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out, and stains can show through again. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Horley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask about the job first and send you a clear quote before we start.

Regrouting around Horley

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.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Ethelreda, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as North Oxfordshire Academy, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Common problems we fix in Horley

Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before any work starts.

Common reasons people contact us are:

  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change

Letting a property close to Banbury station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

What your quote should include

  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a sealant specialist

When something else is needed

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:

  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
