Regrouting near South Street

Regrouting in South Street

We work across South Street, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, finished with new silicone at the edges. If you have gaps where the shower grout has gone and floor grout that won’t come clean, we can put it right, on shower walls, bathroom wall tiles and wet rooms alike.

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

Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What sealant work can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A structure that flexes behind the tiles
  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • Tiles that are chipped or split

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

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

What affects the cost of regrouting

For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:

  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Whether the work is at height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we will go through it with you.

What we need to know

You do not need to know the technical terms. Just tell us:

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved

We quote each job on its own. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details.

South Street questions

Can parking be tricky for a visit in South Street?

In much of London, parking needs planning: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run more smoothly, so mention what’s available when you book.

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

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Which products do you use?

We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.

How long does the job take?

Typically it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Bigger jobs take longer.

Are you an approved applicator?

Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.

Do you take out the old sealant first?

Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes. Just list everything you need and we’ll quote it together.

Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?

Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and wouldn’t keep water out.

When to call us in South Street

Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it with repeated use, until the joints are rough and low.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Floor grout that won’t come clean
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Cracked grout along the bath or tray

If you let a flat or house near Oxted station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Before booking anyone

  • What guarantee comes with the work
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?

How to choose a mastic man

DIY sealant or a professional job?

If you are 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 doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:

  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Run the extractor fan during and after a shower

We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.

If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.

South Street homes and their sealant

London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.

If you look after a building such as Charles Darwin 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. South Street is in London, so parking needs planning: tell us about permits, visitor bays or off-street space when you book.

How the visit works

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. In South Street, flats, stairs and shared entrances are part of the routine. Mention any building rules, key holders or managing agents when you book.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
  3. Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
  4. Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
  5. We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.

How to prepare

  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on

How the job changes by surface

Kitchen splashbacks

The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We regroute and reseal the worktop joint.

Wet rooms

Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It can’t fix waterproofing below the tiles.
