Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
  • Check the corner silicone every few months
  • Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout

Have any tile that moves checked straight away. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.

If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.

How we handle regrouting in Walmer

A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. You might go from white to grey, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. If you are dealing with floor grout that won’t come clean and gaps where the shower grout has gone, we can put it right, on wet rooms, bathroom floors and tiled floors alike.

In a smaller place like Walmer, homes are mostly houses and bungalows rather than flats, some older and some much newer. Bathrooms and kitchens here get the same daily wear as anywhere, and the sealant and grout show it first.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

What we do, step by step

On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area from start to finish. A visit to Walmer is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. Outdoor jobs depend on a dry day, since sealant needs a dry surface.

  1. Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
  2. We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Why act early in Walmer

Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. Homes in smaller places like Walmer can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.

Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a quote.

Why us?

  • Approved under the ARBOMaster scheme
  • 20+ years of sealant experience
  • Quality sealants from Arbo and Everbuild
  • Homes, businesses and hotels

DIY versus a professional finish

Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.

If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into 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.

What regrouting looks like in Walmer

Walmer is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Walmer has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.

If you live in an older home near St Mary's Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. If you let a flat or house near Walmer station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. Managing a site like The Downs Church of England Primary School? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

What affects the cost of regrouting

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:

  • Any working-time requirements on site
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • Whether the work is at height
  • The old material and how stubborn it is

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.

What to tell us for a quote

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

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • A few photos by email, if you can
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • If someone has resealed it before

Surface by surface

Shower walls

Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.

Corners and edges

The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.
