Regrouting in The Pound

We cover The Pound for raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old material cut out, joints cleaned and sealed neatly.

  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change

Regrouting in The Pound

Why deal with it now?

Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. A thin skin on top tends to break off. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like The Pound, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start, so you know where you stand.

Why book with us

  • An ARBOMaster approved applicator
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • We leave the area clean and tidy
  • Homes, businesses and hotels

Regrouting in The Pound

When grout stays dark however much you clean it, 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. We work on shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles, and people most often call us about cracked grout along the bath or tray and shower grout that has worn away.

For a small place like The Pound, regrouting is planned like any other job: the journey and access are simply agreed in advance. Once we are there, the bathroom or kitchen gets the same care as anywhere else.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

FAQs for The Pound

Will you come out to The Pound?

Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can you do regrouting in The Pound?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and The Pound is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.

Will you leave a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.

How much does regrouting cost in The Pound?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we will talk you through it.

Do you remove the old sealant?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.

Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?

In most cases, yes. The corners and edges should be silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.

Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?

Yes, that is common. Shower grout tends to go before the rest, so many people regrout just that part.

What we’re called out for in The Pound

Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Cracked grout along the bath or tray
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor

Rented homes near Battle station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

What your quote should include

  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • When the joint can take water or movement

The process

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. The job normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere like The Pound needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  2. The old grout is removed to an even depth.
  3. The joints are vacuumed clean.
  4. New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
  5. We finish with silicone in the moving joints.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the work
  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

What regrouting looks like in The Pound

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

If you live in an older home near Parish Church of St Peter, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

How the job changes by surface

Bathroom wall tiles

Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.

Kitchen splashbacks

We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.

What sealant work cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • A leaking shower valve or waste
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will tell you honestly.

What we seal

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in The Pound

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. Several properties can be quoted together.

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

Aftercare tips

How long the joints last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout

Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.

Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak, so get it looked at when you notice it.
