Regrouting near Medmenham

About our regrouting in Medmenham

We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, because regrouting won’t fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. We work on shower walls, tiled floors and wet rooms, and people most often call us about shower grout that has worn away and floor grout that has worn and darkened.

Somewhere as small as Medmenham, 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.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Have loose tiles looked at early
  • Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
  • Keep the fan on after showering
  • Stick to mild products for cleaning grout

Use a gentle cleaner on the grout with a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.

Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.

The process

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we are working on. Expect the work to take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Somewhere as small as Medmenham, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
  3. We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
  4. We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
  5. We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Your questions about regrouting in Medmenham

I let a flat near Henley-On-Thames station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you work in hotels near Medmenham?

Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.

How long should I wait before showering?

We give you a time before we leave. It depends on the grout and the sealant used, so follow the time we give you.

How long does the job take?

As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Bigger jobs take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.

What sealant do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.

Can I do it myself?

Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. We remove it all first.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Medmenham

Medmenham has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. 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.

Schools such as Danesfield School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you live in an older home near Church of St Peter and St Paul, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What affects the cost of regrouting

There’s no set price list. What we look at:

  • How many areas need sealing
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The number and length of the joints

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

What we need to know

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • The rough size of the job
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The type of property
  • Whether it has been sealed before

If you are in Medmenham and need regrouting, ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you’ll get a clear quote before any work starts.

Should I try it myself first?

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

What sealant work cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Damaged tiles that need replacing
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling

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

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Common problems we fix in Medmenham

A poor original job is a common cause. Grout that was too wet, not packed in or cleaned off too hard can wash out within a few years.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Grout that is cracking and breaking up
  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout

For landlords with property near Henley-On-Thames station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
