About our regrouting in Ringwould

If you’ve been scrubbing grout that won’t come clean, the stain is often in the grout itself. Replacing it is the lasting answer and you can pick a different colour while you’re at it. Typical jobs include floor grout that has worn and darkened and shower grout that has worn away, across tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles.

Around Ringwould, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What sealant work cannot fix

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
  • Tiles that are chipped or split

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Regrouting in Ringwould: local notes

Ringwould is within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Homes close to Church of St Nicholas include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Schools such as Kingsdown and Ringwould CofE Primary School are buildings too, and 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.

Keeping the joints in good condition

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam

We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Stick to that time, and go gently on the grout at first.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

Different surfaces, different methods

Shower walls

Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.

Kitchen splashbacks

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

DIY versus a professional finish

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.

The process

At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself generally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, depending on the size of the job. For a village or hamlet like Ringwould, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. Internal corners and edges are resealed.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Do you need regrouting in Ringwould?

A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, and damp grout is where mould grows. When black spots keep returning, the mould has usually got into the grout.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
  • Shower grout that has worn away

Letting a property close to Walmer station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

What your quote should include

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Why deal with it now?

Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but mould that has got into grout generally comes back. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Ringwould, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

Your questions about regrouting in Ringwould

Do you cover Ringwould for regrouting?

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

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

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Will regrouting fix loose tiles?

Tiles that have come away need sorting first. We will show you which ones before any grout comes out.

Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?

Normally we do both. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

We use silicone in corners and along edges. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.

Is it worth trying it myself?

You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it doesn’t work out, we can redo it.

Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?

Yes. We’ll look at the rest of the room too and tell you if anything else needs attention.

How much does regrouting cost in Ringwould?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. We agree the price before any work begins.
