When it isn’t the sealant

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

  • Tiles that are chipped or split
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we seal

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

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Mile Oak

Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. It can be a full room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Mile Oak are handled the same careful way. We work on wet rooms, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks, and common reasons people get in touch are floor grout that won’t come clean and grout that’s cracking and breaking up.

Homes around Mile Oak are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What affects the cost of regrouting

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • The amount of work
  • The product the joint needs
  • The number of rooms or windows

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What to tell us for a quote

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

  • Photos by email, if that is easy
  • The type of property
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work

We quote each job on its own, so start by telling us what you need. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the details.

What happens if it’s left?

Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We will tell you before we start so you know what’s involved. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. Around Mile Oak, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

  • Fully insured
  • Arbo and Everbuild products
  • 4.9 on Google from 180+ five-star reviews
  • We never seal over old sealant

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Mascalls School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near Paddock Wood station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

What we do, step by step

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room in most cases. In a small place like Mile Oak, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
  2. We remove the old grout carefully.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
  5. Internal corners and edges are resealed.

What we are called out for in Mile Oak

Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly tends to wash out early.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cracked grout along the bath or tray
  • Splashback grout that has darkened
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Mile Oak: your questions answered

Do you cover Mile Oak for regrouting?

Yes, Mile Oak is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

Do you cover smaller places like Mile Oak?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

How long should I wait before showering?

You’ll get a clear time from us before we go. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before the shower is used.

Where are you based?

We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Can you regrout just the shower?

Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or the area where the grout has gone.

Will regrouting fix loose tiles?

Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Regrouting alone is not the answer, and we’ll tell you before work begins.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.

Should I try it myself first?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
  • Check the corner silicone every few months

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.

Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it so early action pays.
