What affects the quote in New Barn

You’ll get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

What to tell us for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will talk you through what we’d do. Whenever you’re ready, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Regrouting in New Barn, done properly

A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you ring 0345 464 0079 or email us. We work on tiled floors, wet rooms and kitchen splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are grout in a colour the owner wants to change and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean.

In a smaller place like New Barn, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in New Barn and across Kent.

How the visit works

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. Parking around New Barn is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. We remove the old grout carefully.
  3. The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Getting ready for the visit

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Clear the area around the work

Advice

New Barn questions

Do you work for landlords with property near Longfield station?

Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Do you cover New Barn for regrouting?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and New Barn is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.

Do you reseal at the same time?

Normally we do both. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and include it in your quote.

What information do you need?

Let us know what needs doing and where. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

How long will you be here?

It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. We will give you a better idea when we quote.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

Silicone. Grout belongs between the tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.

What we’re called out for in New Barn

Grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down, especially in a shower that’s used every day.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
  • Grout in corners that has cracked
  • Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
  • Old grout in a dated colour

Rented homes near Longfield station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • When the joint can take water or movement

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try it myself first?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

Regrouting in New Barn: local notes

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Managing a site like Longfield Academy? Then 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 Saint Mary Magdalene, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • Cracked or broken tiles

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

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

Surface by surface

Kitchen splashbacks

A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.

Wet rooms

Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.
