How to look after the new joints

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
  • Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges

Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so it’s usually the first thing to need attention.

Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

Regrouting in Pootings, done properly

If you’ve been scrubbing grout that won’t come clean, the discolouration has usually soaked into the grout. New grout is the fix that lasts, and it’s a chance to change the colour too. If you’re dealing with good tiles let down by tired grout and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned, we can help.

Being in a small place like Pootings makes no difference to the job itself: 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.

Is resealing included with regrouting?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what sealant work can do:

  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

What regrouting looks like in Pootings

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Homes close to Congregational Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For landlords with property near Edenbridge station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. If you look after a building such as Four Elms Primary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Should I try it myself first?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.

The process

The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. The job generally takes 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 Pootings, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
  2. The old grout is removed to an even depth.
  3. We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
  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

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice

How the job changes by surface

Kitchen splashbacks

Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.

Bathroom wall tiles

Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.

What affects the quote in Pootings

Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • The number and length of the joints
  • The product the joint needs

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. The price is agreed before we begin.

What we need to know

Photos by email are helpful but not essential. Try to tell us:

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
