When it isn’t the sealant

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:

  • A leaking wet room membrane
  • Tiles that are chipped or split
  • Movement in a stud wall or floor

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Regrouting in New Street

We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting won’t fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. We work on tiled floors, wet rooms and bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are splashback grout that has darkened and stained grout that cleaning won’t shift.

Being in a small place like New Street makes no difference to the job itself: 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 anything is not right with it, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

FAQs for New Street

Can you do regrouting in New Street?

Yes, New Street 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.

I let a flat near Meopham station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.

Will regrouting fix loose tiles?

If tiles are loose, something behind them has usually failed. Grout on its own won’t fix that and we will say so before going ahead.

How do I get a quote for regrouting in New Street?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Ask us for a quote.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in those joints cracks as the building moves.

How long does the job take?

Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

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.

Regrouting in New Street: local notes

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Managing a site like Culverstone Green Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. Homes close to Church of Saint Peter include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Signs you need regrouting in New Street

Hard water and soap leave a film on grout and stick to it. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, and at that point, new grout is the better answer.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracked or crumbling grout lines
  • Old grout in a dated colour
  • Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
  • Shower grout that has worn away

What the job involves on each surface

Kitchen splashbacks

We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.

Bathroom wall tiles

Walls outside the shower get less water but grout there still discolours. New grout freshens them up.

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.

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

What we do, step by step

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere as small as New Street, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Getting a quote

We don’t publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To get started, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

How we quote for regrouting

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

Helping us quote

When you contact us, it’s useful to know:

  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Where the property is

To get a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. You’ll have a clear quote before we start.

What happens if it’s left?

Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, which turns a regrout into a retile. Dealing with it now keeps it small. In a small place like New Street, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
