Regrouting near Merstham

DIY sealant or a professional job?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Regrouting in Merstham

Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. With regrouting, the tiles stay and only the grout is renewed, so nothing is ripped out. We work on wet rooms, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors, and common reasons people get in touch are grout that makes sound tiles look old and old grout in a dated colour.

For a small place like Merstham, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Merstham: your questions answered

Is Merstham in your area for regrouting?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Merstham is part of that. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Merstham?

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.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Is it worth trying it myself?

Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.

Does someone need to be in?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. Photos by email help too.

Where do you work from?

Our base is Crawley. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?

It varies with the products and the room. We’ll give you a time to follow at the end of the visit.

Looking after it afterwards

How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Skip wire brushes and scourers
  • Check the corner silicone every few months
  • Rinse the tiles after showering
  • Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout

Use a gentle cleaner on the grout with a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it, as they can break grout down.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

How it works

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t 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. Somewhere like Merstham needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
  3. The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
  4. Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
  5. We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice

What affects the cost of regrouting

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

  • Any mould that needs treating
  • Whether the work is at height
  • How much there is to do
  • The product the joint needs

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Asking for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

If you’re in Merstham and need regrouting, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you will get a clear quote before work begins.

Regrouting around Merstham

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.

For landlords with property near Merstham station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. If you look after a building such as Merstham Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. In the older streets around Church of St Katharine, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
