Regrouting in The Valley

About our regrouting in The Valley

Regrouting is generally paired with resealing. Grout belongs between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. We work on wet rooms, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are good tiles let down by tired grout and grout in a colour the owner wants to change.

Around The Valley, it’s houses and cottages rather than flats. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What we do, step by step

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like The Valley, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided 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. We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
  5. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

Preparing for the visit

Advice

How to look after the new joints

Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
  • Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering

Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.

Stains that will not clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.

FAQs for The Valley

Do you work for landlords with property near Charing station?

Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.

Do you cover The Valley for regrouting?

Yes, The Valley is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and let us know what needs doing.

What sealant do you use?

Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.

Do I have to be there?

We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that usually means someone at home.

Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?

In most cases, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.

Do the sealants smell?

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

How do I get a quote for regrouting in The Valley?

Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote.

Can you regrout just the shower?

We can. We’ll look at the rest of the room too and tell you if anything else needs attention.

Signs you need regrouting in The Valley

When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before we start.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Cracked or crumbling grout lines
  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone

If you let a flat or house near Charing station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Before you book anyone

  • What product goes in the joint
  • Is VAT in the price?

Choosing a sealant specialist

What affects the quote in The Valley

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

  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • Whether the work is at height
  • The size of the job

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we will go through it with you.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • How we’d reach the joints
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Need a quote? Please call 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.

DIY versus a professional finish

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

What we cannot put right

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • A leaking shower valve or waste
  • A leaking wet room membrane
  • Damaged tiles that need replacing

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

Surfaces we seal

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

What the job involves on each surface

Kitchen splashbacks

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

Shower walls

The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We replace it and renew the silicone at the edges.

Bathrooms and kitchens in The Valley

Most of the South East has hard water, which leaves limescale on sealant, grout and fittings.

For an older house near a landmark such as Church of St Lawrence, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
