About our regrouting in Lee

Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. We are often asked to deal with cracked or crumbling grout lines and splashback grout that has darkened, on bathroom wall tiles, wet rooms and kitchen splashbacks.

In a village or hamlet like Lee, 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.

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

How the job changes by surface

Wet rooms

Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.

Kitchen splashbacks

The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.

Common problems we fix in Lee

Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble, especially in a shower that’s used every day.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracked or crumbling grout lines
  • Grout in corners that has cracked
  • Shower grout that has worn away
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout

For landlords with property near Romsey station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Lee

Is Lee in your area for regrouting?

Yes, Lee 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 tell us what needs doing.

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Romsey station?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

How long does the job take?

A typical job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.

How do I get a quote for regrouting in Lee?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

Which products do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.

Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?

Yes. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint rather than sitting on top.

Will it make a mess?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Can I do it myself?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Why act early in Lee

Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. 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, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Why us?

  • 12-month guarantee on every job
  • ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet

Should I try it myself first?

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

What we do, step by step

When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a small place like Lee, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. We remove the old grout carefully.
  3. The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. Internal corners and edges are resealed.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout

Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window to help it dry out.

Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.

What regrouting looks like in Lee

Lee 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. Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Homes close to Church of St Boniface include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you look after a building such as Oasis Academy Lord's Hill, 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.
