About our regrouting in Stevenage

We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. It can be a full room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Stevenage are handled the same careful way. We work on wet rooms, bathroom wall tiles and kitchen splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are corners filled with grout instead of silicone and floor grout that has worn and darkened.

Stevenage has offices, shops and other businesses as well as homes, all with washrooms and kitchens that need the same care as a family bathroom. The work is the same in both: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish.

Our work is backed for twelve months.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:

  • Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
  • Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
  • A structure that flexes behind the tiles

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we seal

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

What we are called out for in Stevenage

A poor original job is a common cause. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly tends to wash out early.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Old grout in a dated colour
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Floor grout that won’t come clean

Schools such as Saint Vincent de Paul Catholic Primary School are buildings too, and 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.

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

We bring everything the job needs with us, so there’s nothing for you to buy. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Jobs in a place the size of Stevenage range from town-centre flats to offices and family homes. For each, it helps to know about access, parking and where the joints are.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
  3. We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
  4. New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

How to prepare

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

What regrouting looks like in Stevenage

Stevenage is one of the post-war new towns. Many homes date from the post-war decades, so bathrooms and kitchens may be on their second or third set of sealant. New sealant will not stick to old, so the old layers have to come out first. Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

Homes close to St Hugh & St John include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. Rented homes near Stevenage station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Stevenage is about 26 miles east of Milton Keynes, in Hertfordshire. Every kind of property in Stevenage can book us for regrouting, old or new, large or small. The work is guaranteed for a year.

Should I try it myself first?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

What affects the quote in Stevenage

For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:

  • Access and height
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The number and length of the joints

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Asking for a quote

To make quoting easier, please include:

  • The type of property
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • The problem you’ve noticed
  • A few pictures by email, if you can

To get a quote, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the location and a short description of the problem. We’ll give you a clear price before any work starts.

What happens if it’s left?

With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and often a few days without a shower. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. For landlords in Stevenage, failed sealant soon turns into tenant complaints about mould, damp or draughts. It’s simpler to sort between tenants than in the middle of a let.

Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Why us?

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Keep the fan on after showering
  • Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls

Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so the sealant there will need renewing in time.

Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward, before the joints open up.

Your questions about regrouting in Stevenage

Can you help a landlord with a rental near Stevenage station?

Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Can you do regrouting in Stevenage?

Yes, Stevenage is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.

How long should I wait before showering?

You will get a clear time from us before we go. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before the shower is used.

Do you hold any approvals?

Yes. We’re approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Does someone need to be in?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.

Should I try DIY first?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.

Do the sealants smell?

Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
