Regrouting in Plastow Green

Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, without damaging the edges of the tiles. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, and the corners get fresh silicone. If you have floor grout that won’t come clean and good tiles let down by tired grout, we can put it right, on shower walls, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles alike.

Somewhere as small as Plastow Green, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

All our work is covered by a 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in West Berkshire.

What the job involves on each surface

Wet rooms

Wet rooms have water across the floor, so sound grout really matters. We check for loose tiles before starting.

Corners and edges

Edges are resealed while we’re there, so the whole area is finished together.

What regrouting looks like in Plastow Green

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Paul, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Schools such as Cheam School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What we can’t put right

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles

If in doubt, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will say what we think before booking.

What we seal

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

What happens on the day

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can get on with your day. Expect the work to take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. For a village or hamlet like Plastow Green, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  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. We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

Preparing for the visit

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Related advice

Should I try it myself first?

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.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

What we are called out for in Plastow Green

Most grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble, especially in a shower that is used every day.

People generally contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Floor grout that will not come clean
  • Crumbling grout between the tiles

If you let a flat or house near Thatcham station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Before booking anyone

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether they seal over old material or remove it

Choosing a sealant specialist

Why it’s worth doing now in Plastow Green

Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out and stains often come back through. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Around Plastow Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

Why us?

  • Sanitary silicone with an anti-fungal additive in wet areas
  • Full insurance on every job
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • ARBOMaster approved applicator

Plastow Green questions

Do you cover smaller places like Plastow Green?

Yes, Plastow Green 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 you cover Plastow Green for regrouting?

Yes, Plastow Green is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.

What if some of my tiles are loose?

Loose tiles need refixing before regrouting. We will show you which ones before any grout comes out.

Where are you based?

Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get a clear time from us before we go. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before they get wet.

Is it messy?

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we’re done.

Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?

In most cases, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone and doing both at once leaves everything sound.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.

How we quote for regrouting

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The type of sealant required
  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • The amount of work

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What we need to know

You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • The type of property

It all starts with a short chat. Tell us what’s wrong, where it is and how much there is. Whenever you’re ready, phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
