When to call us in Loose

Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before work begins.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room
  • Grout in corners that has cracked
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Splashback grout that has darkened

Schools such as Loose Primary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Choosing a sealant specialist

Regrouting in Loose, done properly

Across Loose, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, finished with new silicone at the edges. We work on wet rooms, shower walls and kitchen splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are good tiles let down by tired grout and cracked grout along the bath or tray.

Around Loose, 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.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Landlord and commercial work in Loose

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.

From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

What regrouting looks like in Loose

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.

Homes close to Church of All Saints include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near East Farleigh station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Loose is about 2 miles south of Maidstone, in Kent. Every kind of property in Loose can book us for regrouting. The work is guaranteed for a year. 922 places in Kent are on our list, from the larger towns to small villages. Our London page covers work nearby.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Tiles that are chipped or split
  • A leaking shower valve or waste

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

Where we work in Loose

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

Why act early in Loose

Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, and then you are looking at retiling. Dealing with it now keeps it small. Around Loose, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

We don’t show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

What happens on the day

We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. For a village or hamlet like Loose, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  2. We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
  3. We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
  4. We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
  5. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Surface by surface

Wet rooms

In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so good grout is important. We check the tiles first.

Corners and edges

The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout there would crack.

Questions from Loose

I let a flat near East Farleigh station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

Will you come out to Loose?

Yes, Loose is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Where are you based?

We work from Crawley. We cover Loose and the rest of Kent, along with the rest of our area.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.

Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?

Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or the area where the grout has gone.

How long will you be here?

A typical job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.

How to look after the new joints

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep the fan on after showering
  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
  • Use gentle cleaners on grout
  • Have loose tiles looked at early

If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and open a path for water.

Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.
