Your questions about regrouting in Stratford St Mary

Is Stratford St Mary in your area for regrouting?

Yes, Stratford St Mary is within the area we cover. We work across London and the South East. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Do you cover smaller places like Stratford St Mary?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.

What information do you need?

Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email.

Will you leave a mess?

No. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.

Is resealing included with regrouting?

Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and include it in your quote.

Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?

Yes, that is common. The shower generally fails first, so it’s often the only area that needs doing.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Stratford St Mary

Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. Common call-outs are for crumbling grout between the tiles and dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor, across tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms.

Somewhere as small as Stratford St Mary, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Movement in older walls and floors tends to show first as cracked grout or split sealant.

The process

When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere as small as Stratford St Mary, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
  4. We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking rules near the property
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles

If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we seal

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

Can I do it myself?

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 fails, we can still redo it.

Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Landlord and commercial work in Stratford St Mary

We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order.

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

Regrouting around Stratford St Mary

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Stratford St Mary Primary School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam

Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it cures fully. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and let the room air.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

What affects the cost of regrouting

We don’t publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:

  • Working hours on commercial sites
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Any mould that needs treating
  • The size of the job

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • The type of property
  • Where the property is
  • Roughly how big the job is
  • How we’d reach the joints

Want a quote for regrouting? Please ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us about the job. You will know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.

What we are called out for in Stratford St Mary

Movement behind the tiles cracks grout. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, which is why we check the tiles first.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Cracked or crumbling grout lines
  • Old grout in a dated colour
  • Splashback grout that has darkened

Letting a property close to Manningtree station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

What to look for in a quote

  • Is VAT in the price?
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Are they insured?
