Regrouting in Longcot

Surface by surface

Bathroom floors

Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It wears and darkens over time.

Kitchen splashbacks

The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We regroute and reseal the worktop joint.

How we handle regrouting in Longcot

Regrouting is normally paired with resealing. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. We’re often asked to deal with splashback grout that has darkened and floor grout that has worn and darkened, on shower walls, wet rooms and bathroom floors.

Being in a small place like Longcot makes no difference to the job itself: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

When to call us in Longcot

Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and when they are not, water gets in.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Floor grout that has worn and darkened
  • Grout that makes sound tiles look old
  • Grout in corners that has cracked
  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Mary, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?

Choosing a sealant specialist

Leave it or put it right?

New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In a small place like Longcot, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Regrouting around Longcot

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

How the visit works

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. Somewhere like Longcot needs a little journey planning: 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.

  1. First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Questions from Longcot

Is Longcot within the area you cover?

Yes. Longcot is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you do regrouting in Longcot?

Yes, Longcot is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Is it worth trying it myself?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

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’ll explain our choice.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep the fan on after showering
  • Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly

Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it because they wear grout away.

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 affects the cost of regrouting

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Whether the work is at height
  • The amount of work

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

What we need to know

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Please mention:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • The type of property
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • What’s wrong with the joints now

We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we send you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.
