Regrouting for homes and businesses in Tilmanstone

Grout fills the gaps between tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in and renew the silicone at the edges. We’re often asked to deal with grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and grout that makes sound tiles look old, on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles.

Somewhere as small as Tilmanstone, homes tend to be cottages, farmhouses or converted buildings, with some newer houses too. Older walls and timber floors can move a little, and cracked grout and split sealant are often the first signs.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please ring 0345 464 0079 or email us.

For landlords and businesses

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 go on one quote.

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

When to call us in Tilmanstone

Grout that was put in corners cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
  • Old grout in a dated colour
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Splashback grout that has darkened

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including the tidy-up. For a village or hamlet like Tilmanstone, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the job comes with us, so a second trip is avoided where possible.

  1. We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
  2. The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
  3. Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
  4. We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
  5. We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

DIY sealant or a professional job?

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.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

How we quote for regrouting

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

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The size of the job
  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • How many areas need sealing

What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:

  • The rough size of the job
  • Where the job is, and your postcode
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • If someone has resealed it before

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that’s easy.

What happens if it’s left?

It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but the patches often do not match and the old grout carries on failing. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. In a small place like Tilmanstone, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.

A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, because water and mould keep working on it. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

What you get with us

  • Homes, businesses and hotels
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
  • Every job guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the area clean and tidy

Regrouting in Tilmanstone: local notes

Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings.

Questions from Tilmanstone

Do you work for landlords with property near Shepherds Well station?

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

Is Tilmanstone within the area you cover?

Yes. Tilmanstone is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Is it OK to seal over old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.

Which products do you use?

It depends on the joint: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

How long does the job take?

That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. We’ll tell you when we quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Just list everything you need.

Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?

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

Do you grout the corners?

We seal corners with silicone. They flex, and grout there cracks.

When something else is needed

Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Tiles that have come away from the wall
  • Movement in a stud wall or floor
  • A leaking shower valve or waste

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