For landlords and businesses

Regrouting in Lewknor

We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, and the corners get fresh silicone. If you are dealing with gaps where the shower grout has gone and grout that makes sound tiles look old, we can help.

Around Lewknor, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

What affects the quote in Lewknor

Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The number and length of the joints

Instead of a standard rate, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Asking for a quote

You don’t need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The type of property
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

It all starts with a short chat. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:

  • A leaking shower valve or waste
  • Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
  • Damaged tiles that need replacing

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Where we work in Lewknor

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

Looking after it afterwards

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam

We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.

Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away, so regrouting early can save a retile.

How it works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we don’t rush it. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere like Lewknor needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
  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. Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice

FAQs for Lewknor

Do you cover Lewknor for regrouting?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Lewknor is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

What guarantee comes with regrouting in Lewknor?

All our work, in Lewknor and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Where do you work from?

Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.

How long will you be here?

Typically it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.

Will there be a smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Opening a window helps.

Can you do several jobs on one visit?

Yes, and it often makes sense. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit, so mention them when you ask for a quote.

Which products 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.

Do you need regrouting in Lewknor?

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

People usually contact us when they notice something like this:

  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Cracked grout along the bath or tray
  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change

If you live in an older home near Church of St Margaret, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • How long to leave it before use

DIY versus a professional finish

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

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