How we handle regrouting in St Leonards

A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. We work on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are floor grout that has worn and darkened and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean.

For a small place like St Leonards, regrouting is planned like any other job: it just means planning the journey and access beforehand. In the bathroom or kitchen, the work is the same as in any town.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

When it isn’t the sealant

New sealant cannot fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. It will not solve:

  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • A leaking wet room membrane
  • A structure that flexes behind the tiles

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

What we are called out for in St Leonards

Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Shower grout that has worn away
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
  • Grout in corners that has cracked

In the older streets around Church of St Leonard, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Aftercare tips

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:

  • Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
  • Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Rinse the tiles after showering

Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it cures fully. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.

Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough, so it’s worth acting early.

Quotes for regrouting in St Leonards

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

  • The number and length of the joints
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • How many areas need sealing

Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.

Helping us quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • The type of property
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • The address or postcode of the job

There’s no standard price list. Instead, your job gets its own clear quote. To arrange one, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

St Leonards questions

Is St Leonards in your area for regrouting?

Yes, St Leonards is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.

Do you work for landlords with property near Wendover station?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.

How long does the job take?

As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Bigger jobs take longer.

Do the sealants smell?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

Will it make a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.

Can new sealant go over the old?

No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.

What regrouting looks like in St Leonards

Most of the South East has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

Rented homes near Wendover station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

How the visit works

We work through the job in order: protect, prepare, seal, tidy. Typically it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere as small as St Leonards, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
  3. We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
  4. Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

Before we arrive

  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Why act early in St Leonards

Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, and then you’re looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Around St Leonards, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
