Book regrouting in Monkswood

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Monkswood

We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. Common call-outs are for crumbling grout between the tiles and cracked grout along the bath or tray, on shower walls, bathroom wall tiles and wet rooms.

For a small place like Monkswood, regrouting is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

When something else is needed

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout

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

Can I do it myself?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Quotes for regrouting in Monkswood

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

  • Whether the work is at height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • The type of sealant required

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

What we need to know

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:

  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • The rough size of the job
  • If someone has resealed it before

We quote each job on its own, so the first step is telling us about yours. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details and send pictures if you have them.

Monkswood: your questions answered

I let a flat near Welwyn North station. Can you help?

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

Is Monkswood in your area for regrouting?

Yes, Monkswood is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?

Corners get silicone, not grout. They flex, and grout there cracks.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we are fully insured too.

What does regrouting cost?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.

Do the sealants smell?

Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.

What guarantee comes with the work?

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Leave it or put it right?

Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but patched grout rarely matches the rest and the old grout carries on failing. Regrouting the whole area gives an even, lasting finish. In a small place like Monkswood, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.

Different surfaces, different methods

Bathroom floors

Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It gets worn and dirty.

Shower walls

Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.

How the visit works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Monkswood, access is usually the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
  2. The old grout is removed to an even depth.
  3. We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
  4. New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
  5. We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Regrouting in Monkswood: local notes

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Homerswood Primary and Nursery School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Homes close to The Parish Church of St John 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 Welwyn North station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
