Advice
Regrouting in Pirton
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. We work on bathroom floors, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are floor grout that won’t come clean and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean.
Homes around Pirton are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Can I do it myself?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
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.

Signs you need regrouting in Pirton
Poor ventilation keeps grout damp, and damp grout is where mould grows. When black spots keep returning, the mould has generally got into the grout.
The most common problems we see are:
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
Schools such as Pirton School are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- Whether they’re fully insured
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How hidden problems are handled
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.
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Leave it or put it right?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and the room is out of use for longer. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. In a small place like Pirton, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Regrouting in Pirton: 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.
Homes close to Church of St Mary (Church of England) include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Rented homes near Hitchin station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
Pirton is about 3 miles north-west of Hitchin, in Hertfordshire. Every kind of property in Pirton is covered for regrouting, old or new, large or small. The work is guaranteed for a year. 381 places in Hertfordshire are on our list, from the larger towns to small villages. We also work in London, about 34 miles from Pirton.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
Have any tile that moves checked right away. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough, so it’s worth acting early.
How we quote for regrouting
We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many areas need sealing
- The amount of work
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The address or postcode of the job
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.
Pirton: your questions answered
I let a flat near Hitchin station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Is Pirton within the area you cover?
Yes. Pirton is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Do the sealants smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure, which fades as it sets. Ventilation helps.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Usually, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone and doing both at once leaves everything sound.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before resealing.
