Regrouting in Monk's Gate

Keeping the joints in good condition

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:

  • Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
  • Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Use gentle cleaners on grout

If a tile starts to feel loose, get it looked at early. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.

Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen, so regrouting early can save a retile.

About our regrouting in Monk's Gate

Grout fills the gaps between tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. If you have kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and cracked grout along the bath or tray, we can help, on bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms alike.

Homes around Monk's Gate are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

How the job changes by surface

Corners and edges

Edges are resealed while we are there, so the whole area is finished together.

Bathroom wall tiles

Tiles away from the shower stay drier but grout there still discolours. New grout freshens them up.

When something else is needed

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving

Not sure which it is? You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.

What we seal

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

Monk's Gate homes and their sealant

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, 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 the Good Shepherd include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. For landlords with property near Horsham station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

When to call us in Monk's Gate

Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Shower grout that has worn away
  • Floor grout that will not come clean
  • Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
  • Old grout in a dated colour

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as St Andrew's CofE Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What your quote should include

  • Whether VAT is included
  • What product goes in the joint
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • How much experience the applicator has

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a small place like Monk's Gate, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  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. New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
  5. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

How to prepare

  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
