What we are called out for in Hundred Acres

Poor ventilation keeps grout damp, and damp grout is where mould grows. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.

Look out for these signs:

  • Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
  • Splashback grout that has darkened
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Grout that is cracking and breaking up

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

What your quote should include

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it

How to choose a mastic man

Regrouting in Hundred Acres, done properly

Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout belongs between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. We work on bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors, and people most often call us about corners filled with grout instead of silicone and grout in a colour the owner wants to change.

Around Hundred Acres, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What regrouting looks like in Hundred Acres

Hundred Acres has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Nicholas, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Hundred Acres is about 4 miles north-east of Fareham, in Hampshire.

How the visit works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Hundred Acres, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Advice

Can I do it myself?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Landlord and commercial work in Hundred Acres

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

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

How to look after the new joints

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one

Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and let the room air.

Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away, so regrouting early can save a retile.

Hundred Acres: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Fareham station?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.

Is Hundred Acres within the area you cover?

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

Can I do it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.

What sealant do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will tell you what we are using.

How long will you be here?

As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Bigger jobs take longer, and we will say how long yours will take.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Of course. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient.

Why deal with it now?

Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and often a few days without a shower. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Older cottages and farmhouses around Hundred Acres can have timber floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.
