Regrouting in Round Street

Keeping the joints in good condition

Looking after new joints is easy:

  • Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the fan on after showering
  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout

Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time.

Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.

About our regrouting in Round Street

Regrouting is generally paired with resealing. Grout belongs between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. Typical jobs include cracked or crumbling grout lines and dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor, across bathroom wall tiles, wet rooms and bathroom floors.

Around Round Street, it’s 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: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

When something else is needed

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • A leaking shower valve or waste

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we seal

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

Why deal with it now?

Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Around Round Street, 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 a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

What you get with us

  • Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • ARBOMaster approved applicator

How the visit works

Once we’re on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere like Round Street needs a little journey planning: 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. 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. We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
  5. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice

What we’re called out for in Round Street

Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:

  • Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Splashback grout that has darkened
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor

If you look after a building such as Cobham Primary 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.

What your quote should include

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • What guarantee comes with the work

Choosing a sealant specialist

How the job changes by surface

Wet rooms

New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It cannot fix waterproofing below the tiles.

Kitchen splashbacks

A splashback can be regrouted without touching the worktop. The joint along the worktop is resealed with silicone.

Round Street questions

I let a flat near Sole Street station. Can you help?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.

Is Round Street within the area you cover?

Yes, we do. 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 work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.

Which products do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.

Is resealing included with regrouting?

Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and could still leak.

Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?

Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better, while lighter grout brightens a room.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help too.

Do you grout the corners?

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

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

Regrouting around Round Street

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Letting a property close to Sole Street station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. If you live in an older home near St Mary's Room, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
