Regrouting near Oliver's Battery

How we handle regrouting in Oliver's Battery

We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, without damaging the edges of the tiles. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, with silicone renewed in the corners. If you have greasy, stained grout behind the hob and discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles, we can put it right, on tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls alike.

For a small place like Oliver's Battery, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Common questions in Oliver's Battery

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

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Do you cover Oliver's Battery for regrouting?

Yes, Oliver's Battery is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.

Is there any odour?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Ventilation helps.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured.

Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?

Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Will you leave a mess?

Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.

How to look after the new joints

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Skip wire brushes and scourers
  • Wipe water off the walls when you are done
  • Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
  • Stick to mild products for cleaning grout

Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.

If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Surface by surface

Kitchen splashbacks

A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.

Wet rooms

Wet rooms have water across the floor, so sound grout really matters. We check the tiles first.

What we do, step by step

All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere as small as Oliver's Battery, access is often the only tricky part. 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. The old grout is removed to an even depth.
  3. The joints are vacuumed clean.
  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

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Why act early in Oliver's Battery

Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They will not fill gaps or keep water out and stains often come back through. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. In a small place like Oliver's Battery, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.

Regrouting in Oliver's Battery: local notes

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

Homes close to Saint Mark's include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them. Letting a property close to Shawford station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. If you look after a building such as Olivers Battery Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
