How we handle regrouting in Kelvedon

Grout is the filler between your tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. We’re often asked to deal with a grout colour that no longer suits the room and floor grout that won’t come clean, across wet rooms, shower walls and tiled floors.

In and around Kelvedon, older properties sit alongside newer ones. Older homes can move a little with the seasons, which is hard on tired sealant and rigid grout.

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

Should I try it myself first?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Kelvedon and across Essex. Several sites can be quoted together.

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

What sealant work can’t fix

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. Sealant will not put right:

  • A structure that flexes behind the tiles
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A leaking wet room membrane

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

What we seal

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

What affects the cost of regrouting

Your quote is based on your job. We look at:

  • The product the joint needs
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether the work is at height

A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Asking for a quote

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • The problem you’ve noticed

We don’t publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Your questions about regrouting in Kelvedon

Do you cover Kelvedon for regrouting?

Yes, Kelvedon is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.

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

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.

Do I need to be at home?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?

Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Grout on its own won’t fix that and we will say so before going ahead.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

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

Yes, that’s common. Shower grout tends to go before the rest, so it’s often the only area that needs doing.

What regrouting looks like in Kelvedon

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, 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 Parish Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Letting a property close to Kelvedon station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

What happens if it’s left?

Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but mould that has got into grout generally comes back. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. In an older home around Kelvedon, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

When to call us in Kelvedon

Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down with repeated use, leaving the joints sunken and rough.

People normally contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Grout in corners that has cracked
  • Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
  • Shower grout that has worn away

Schools such as Kelvedon St Mary's Church of England Primary Academy are buildings too, and 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.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. For a job in Kelvedon, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  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. We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Tell us about any water getting in
