Theydon Garnon: your questions answered

Do you cover Theydon Garnon for regrouting?

Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Theydon Garnon is part of that. You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and tell us what needs doing.

Is Theydon Garnon within the area you cover?

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.

Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?

Yes. With the old grout removed, the new colour fills the whole joint, not just the surface.

Can tenants book the work?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Will you leave a mess?

Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and the area is left clean when we finish.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.

What sealant do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we seal

  • Tiled floors
  • Wet rooms
  • Shower walls

Regrouting in Theydon Garnon: local notes

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

Schools such as Theydon Bois 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. In the older streets around Church of All Saints, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Keeping the joints in good condition

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

  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one

Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.

Stains that won’t clean are a sign the grout is breaking down. At this point it’s a simple regrout while the tiles are still sound.

The process

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including the tidy-up. In a small place like Theydon Garnon, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice

Should I try it myself first?

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

How we quote for regrouting

We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • Access and height
  • The number and length of the joints
  • How many areas need sealing
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out

Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you’re unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What we need to know

A few details help us give you an accurate quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • Roughly how big the job is
  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • Access, such as stairs, a lift or height

Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. A few photos by email make the job easier to understand, and we will take it from there.
