Regrouting near Longwick

Regrouting in Longwick, done properly

We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, with silicone renewed in the corners. We are often asked to deal with grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, on bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and shower walls.

In and around Longwick, older properties sit alongside newer ones. In older homes, walls and floors can move a little more, so the right flexible sealant matters.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
  • Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
  • Rinse the tiles after showering
  • Keep the fan on after showering

Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

Letting agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we’ll quote.

Regrouting in Longwick: local notes

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

If you live in an older home near Owlswick Chapel, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. If you let a flat or house near Monks Risborough station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

What we are called out for in Longwick

A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, and damp grout is where mould grows. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Splashback grout that has darkened
  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout

If you look after a building such as Longwick Church of England Combined School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Before you book anyone

  • How hidden problems are handled
  • Which sealant they’ll use, and why
  • How much experience the applicator has
  • Is VAT in the price?

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

We keep the work tidy and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a job in Longwick, we agree the time, the access and parking before the day. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  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. We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
  4. We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
  5. Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.

How to prepare

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Surface by surface

Kitchen splashbacks

A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.

Wet rooms

Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.
