About our regrouting in Leybourne

Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, or just the area that has failed. Either way, tiled areas in Leybourne are handled the same careful way. If you have grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and cracked grout along the bath or tray, we can help.

Somewhere as small as Leybourne, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. 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

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner

Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.

If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Leybourne

There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Leybourne. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

If you look after a building such as Lunsford Primary School, 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. If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter and St Paul, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

The process

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and the area is left clean. Somewhere like Leybourne needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  2. The old grout is removed to an even depth.
  3. The joints are vacuumed clean.
  4. We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
  5. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

When to call us in Leybourne

Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. Grout that was too wet, not packed in or cleaned off too hard tends to wash out early.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Shower grout that has worn away
  • Old grout in a dated colour

Rented homes near West Malling station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

What to look for in a quote

  • What the cure time is
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant

10 questions to ask before you book

Quotes for regrouting in Leybourne

We do not publish a price list. What we look at:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How much there is to do
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

What to tell us for a quote

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

  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Whether it’s a home or a business

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

Landlord and commercial work in Leybourne

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we will quote.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

What the job involves on each surface

Kitchen splashbacks

Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.

Bathroom floors

Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It gets worn and dirty.
