How we quote for regrouting

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much there is to do
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Whether the work is at height

The cost depends on the amount of work, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.

Asking for a quote

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • The type of property

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. Whenever you are ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Marley

Grout is the filler between your tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on wet rooms, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are floor grout that has worn and darkened and grout washed out of a shower.

For a small place like Marley, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Our work is backed for twelve months.

What regrouting looks like in Marley

Marley is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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.

Letting a property close to Sandwich station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. Managing a site like Northbourne Church of England Primary School? Then 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.

Marley is about 3 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. Whether you are in the middle of Marley or further out, we cover regrouting for every kind of property. Our Kent coverage runs to 922 places, Marley among them. For nearby work, see our Chelmsford page (51 miles or so).

Leave it or put it right?

If tiles are loose, regrouting alone is not the answer. We will tell you before work begins, so you can decide what to do. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. In a small place like Marley, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

How it works

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The visit itself normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Marley, the journey is planned in advance: 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 check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
  2. Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping 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. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Related advice

How the job changes by surface

Wet rooms

Wet rooms have water across the floor, so sound grout really matters. We check the tiles first.

Kitchen splashbacks

Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Stained grout is best replaced.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use

A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.

Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.

FAQs for Marley

Do you cover smaller places like Marley?

Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Do you work for landlords with property near Sandwich station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.

What information do you need?

Let us know what needs doing and where, with photos by email if possible. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

Does someone need to be in?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

How long does the job take?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.

Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?

Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and it’s all in the quote.

Do you need regrouting in Marley?

When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Old grout in a dated colour
  • Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob

In the older streets around Church of St Augustine, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What sealant work cannot fix

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Damaged tiles that need replacing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
