Regrouting for Landport homes and businesses

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Landport

We work across Landport, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges. Typical jobs include grout in a colour the owner wants to change and splashback grout that has darkened, on bathroom floors, bathroom wall tiles and kitchen splashbacks.

Smaller places like Landport 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.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

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.

Aftercare tips

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
  • Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower

Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it cures fully. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and let the room air.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak, so get it looked at when you notice it.

What regrouting looks like in Landport

Landport is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Landport. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

In the older streets around Church of All Saints, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. If you let a flat or house near Portsmouth & Southsea station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Your questions about regrouting in Landport

Do you work for landlords with property near Portsmouth & Southsea station?

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

Is Landport within the area you cover?

Yes. Landport is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Will it make a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

How much does regrouting cost in Landport?

It depends on the job, so we quote each one individually. For a quick quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a short description of the job.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.

What sealant do you use?

It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Is it worth trying it myself?

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.

The process

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. For a job in Landport, 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 are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
  2. The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
  3. Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
  4. New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

How to get a quote

What affects the cost of regrouting

There’s no set price list, because jobs vary so much. What we look at:

  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • How many areas need sealing
  • The size of the job
  • The type of sealant required

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

What we need to know

Photos help, but a description is a good start. Try to tell us:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • The type of property
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

To get a quote, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

How the job changes by surface

Wet rooms

Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It does not repair failed tanking underneath.

Kitchen splashbacks

Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Stained grout is best replaced.

Common problems we fix in Landport

Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Floor grout that will not come clean
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Grout washed out of a shower

If you look after a building such as Ark Dickens Primary Academy, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
