Regrouting in Rush Green

About our regrouting in Rush Green

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, and the corners get fresh silicone. We are often asked to deal with grout in corners that has cracked and splashback grout that has darkened, on bathroom floors, tiled floors and wet rooms.

Much of London’s older housing is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of them now split into flats, and bathrooms were often squeezed into small rooms. A compact bathroom that steams up every day is hard on silicone and grout.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Rush Green and across Greater London.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Have loose tiles looked at early
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one

Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it because they wear grout away.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

Common questions in Rush Green

Is parking a problem for a job in Rush Green?

It can be, so it helps to tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book. The visit is then planned around what’s available.

Could a tired shower seal in my Rush Green flat affect the neighbours below?

Yes, it can. Water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and show up on the ceiling below. Replacing the sealant and grout before that happens is much less trouble than repairing a neighbour’s ceiling.

Does someone need to be in?

We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.

When can I use the shower again?

It varies with the products and the room. We will tell you exactly how long at the end of the visit.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.

Is resealing included with regrouting?

Normally we do both. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.

Can you regrout just the shower?

Yes, that’s common. The shower normally fails first, so many people regrout just that part.

What do you put in the joint?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.

When it is not the sealant

In fairness, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
  • Tiles that are chipped or split

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

Where we work in Rush Green

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

Can I do it myself?

Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on the amount of work. Many London jobs are in flats, so we come ready for stairs, narrow hallways and shared entrances. If the building has a concierge, managing agent or access rules, tell us when you book.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  2. We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
  3. We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
  4. We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
  5. We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

What affects the quote in Rush Green

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

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • When we can work, for business premises

There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • A few photos by email, if you can

Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we will explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, phone 0345 464 0079 or email us.

Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.

Regrouting around Rush Green

London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. In a London flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal can reach the neighbours below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.

If you look after a building such as Rush Green Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you let a flat or house near Romford station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Signs you need regrouting in Rush Green

A poor original job is a common cause. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly can wash out within a few years.

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

  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Grout in corners that has cracked
  • Grout that is cracking and breaking up
  • Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease

As a London address, Rush Green can be tricky for parking: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

Before you book anyone

  • How much experience the applicator has
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
