About our regrouting in Silverhill

If you’ve been scrubbing grout that won’t come clean, the discolouration has normally 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 corners filled with grout instead of silicone and good tiles let down by tired grout, we can put it right, whatever the surface.

In a smaller place like Silverhill, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.

A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

Can I do it myself?

A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Silverhill homes and their sealant

Silverhill is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Silverhill has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.

If you look after a building such as Christ Church CofE Primary and Nursery Academy, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near St Leonards Warrior Square station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

What we’re called out for in Silverhill

Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and when they aren’t, water gets in.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Cracked grout along the bath or tray
  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease

For an older house near a landmark such as St Matthew's Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How to choose a mastic man

Keeping the joints in good condition

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
  • Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
  • Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal

Have any tile that moves checked straight away. Movement will crack the new grout and open a path for water.

Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone is not enough so early action pays.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

What happens on the day

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room and we leave things clean and tidy. A visit to Silverhill is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
  2. The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
  3. The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
  4. We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Different surfaces, different methods

Shower walls

A shower wall is soaked daily, so its grout takes the most punishment. It’s often the first place grout washes out.

Corners and edges

Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout there would crack.

Why deal with it now?

Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We point that out first so you know what’s involved. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. In an older home around Silverhill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Silverhill questions

Do you work for landlords with property near St Leonards Warrior Square station?

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

Do you cover smaller places like Silverhill?

Yes, Silverhill is covered. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll tell you on the day. The wait depends on the products and conditions, so follow the time we give you.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Do the sealants smell?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.

Will you leave a mess?

We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
