Lee Gate Regrouting
Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for homes and businesses in Lee Gate and across Buckinghamshire. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
Can I do it myself?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Lee Gate
We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Lee Gate are handled the same careful way. If you have grout in corners that has cracked and old grout in a dated colour, we can help, whatever the surface.
In a village or hamlet like Lee Gate, homes are often older cottages and farmhouses alongside a few newer houses. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords and agents in Lee Gate can book us as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Lee Gate and across Buckinghamshire. We can quote a run of properties together.
Common problems we fix in Lee Gate
Most grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
Managing a site like Lee Common Church of England School? Then 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.
What your quote should include
- How long to leave it before use
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
Lee Gate homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.
Letting a property close to Wendover station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. If you live in an older home near Old Church of St John the Baptist, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What happens if it’s left?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, which turns a regrout into a retile. Dealing with it now keeps it small. Around Lee Gate, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
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.

What happens on the day
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on the amount of work. For a village or hamlet like Lee Gate, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.

Advice
Lee Gate: your questions answered
Will you come out to Lee Gate?
Yes, Lee Gate is covered. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Wendover station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
It can. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint, not just the surface.
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get a clear time from us before we go. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before the shower is used.
Do the sealants smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.
