Regrouting for homes and businesses in South Ealing

If you’ve been scrubbing grout that will not 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 are dealing with corners filled with grout instead of silicone and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, we can help, on shower walls, bathroom floors and tiled floors alike.

London homes include a lot of flats, conversions and mansion blocks, and many bathrooms sit right above someone else’s ceiling. In South Ealing, that’s a good reason to put tired sealant and grout right early.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Surface by surface

Corners and edges

Corners flex as the building moves, so we seal them rather than grout them.

Shower walls

Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, 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.

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.

How it works

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, and the area is left clean. Parking in much of London is by permit or pay-and-display, so it helps to know what’s near you in South Ealing. A visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the visit run more smoothly.

  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. We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Advice

How we quote for regrouting

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • Any working-time requirements on site

Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We will give you a clear price for the lot.

What we need to know

When you call or email, these details help:

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Where the job is, and your postcode

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and add photos by email if you can.

South Ealing: your questions answered

Can worn sealant in a flat in South Ealing cause a leak downstairs?

Yes, and the first sign is often a stain on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.

Do you work for hotels and guest houses in South Ealing?

Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.

Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?

Loose tiles need refixing before regrouting. We’ll point them out before any grout comes out.

What information do you need?

Let us know what needs doing and where, with photos by email if possible. If we need more, we’ll ask.

Is there any odour?

Some sealants have a smell while they cure, but it fades. Ventilation helps.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, it will not last. 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.

What do you put in the joint?

It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

What we are called out for in South Ealing

Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.

The problems people generally mention when they call are:

  • Cracked or crumbling grout lines
  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room
  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Shower grout that has worn away

In the older streets around St Mary's Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Before booking anyone

  • What the cure time is
  • Whether the sealant suits the joint
  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Is VAT in the price?

Choosing a sealant specialist

Keeping the joints in good condition

To keep the joints looking good and working properly:

  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
  • Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
  • Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout

Check the corner silicone now and then. Corners flex, so it’s normally the first thing to need attention.

If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.

South Ealing homes and their sealant

South Ealing has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Rented homes near Brentford station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. South Ealing is in London, so parking needs planning: let us know about parking bays, permits or a driveway.
