Keeping the joints in good condition

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
  • Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
  • Stick to mild products for cleaning grout

We will tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.

Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen, so regrouting early can save a retile.

Regrouting in Padworth, done properly

Grout is the filler between your tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water has a way in behind the tiling. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. Typical jobs include floor grout that won’t come clean and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, on bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and shower walls.

Somewhere as small as Padworth, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Different surfaces, different methods

Wet rooms

Both the grout and the silicone in a wet room matter. We renew both.

Bathroom floors

If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We look for loose tiles first.

Regrouting around Padworth

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 Sulhamstead and Ufton Nervet School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. Letting a property close to Aldermaston station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

When it is not the sealant

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. Sealant will not put right:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Movement in a stud wall or floor
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Shower walls
  • Bathroom floors

  • Bathroom wall tiles
  • Kitchen splashbacks

Landlords, agents and businesses in Padworth

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Padworth questions

Do you work for landlords with property near Aldermaston station?

Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.

Do you cover smaller places like Padworth?

Yes, Padworth is covered. We work across London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Do I need to be at home?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.

Do the sealants smell?

That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.

What do you put in the joint?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.

Should I try DIY first?

That depends on the joint. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Do you need regrouting in Padworth?

When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before any work starts.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
  • Cracked or crumbling grout lines
  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned

In the older streets around Church of St John the Baptist, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How long to leave it before use

Choosing a sealant specialist

What affects the quote in Padworth

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Whether the work is at height
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • Working hours on commercial sites

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll talk you through it.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
  • A few pictures by email, if you can
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • If someone has resealed it before

For regrouting in Padworth, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and you’ll get a clear quote before work begins.

How it works

We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. Typically it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room and we leave things clean and tidy. Somewhere as small as Padworth, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
  2. Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
  3. The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
  4. New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
  5. Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
