Aftercare tips

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

  • Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
  • Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
  • Wipe water off the walls when you are done

Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner with a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers because they wear grout away.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

About our regrouting in Walworth

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. Common call-outs are for floor grout that has worn and darkened and grout in a colour the owner wants to change, across shower walls, bathroom floors and kitchen splashbacks.

Hard London water leaves limescale on sealant, grout and taps alike. In Walworth, regrouting is as much about a room looking cared for as about keeping water out.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

Housing providers, facilities teams and property managers book us too in Walworth and across Greater London. We can quote a run of properties together.

For anyone letting property in or around Walworth, jobs at different addresses can be quoted together. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.

How the visit works

Every visit runs the same way: we look at the joints together, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In Walworth, as in most of London, parking needs a little planning. It helps if you can point us to a visitor permit or a bay close to the door.

  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. Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.

How to prepare

  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice

Why deal with it now?

If tiles are loose, regrouting alone isn’t the answer. We will tell you before work begins, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. In London conversions, one flat’s bathroom is often above another flat’s ceiling, so a small leak from tired sealant can mean a neighbour’s ceiling and a lot of disruption. Putting it right early is much less trouble for homes in Walworth.

Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. You’ll know the price before we begin.

Walworth homes and their sealant

London has hard water, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings. London has a lot of flats and conversions, and a failed shower or bath seal in one can show up on the ceiling below, so tired sealant is best dealt with early.

If you live in an older home near Lady Margaret Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant. Managing a site like Robert Browning Primary School? Then 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.

Walworth is about 1 mile south of London, in Greater London. Jobs in Walworth get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee. Across Greater London, we cover 764 places, and Walworth is one of them.

Common problems we fix in Walworth

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.

The problems people generally mention when they call include:

  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room
  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned

For landlords with property near Elephant & Castle station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

What your quote should include

  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing

What the job involves on each surface

Corners and edges

Edges are resealed while we are there, so the whole area is finished together.

Bathroom wall tiles

Tiles away from the shower stay drier but grout there still discolours. Regrouting brings them back in line.

Can I do it myself?

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.

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

Common questions in Walworth

I let a flat near Elephant & Castle station. Can you help?

Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. You can call 0345 464 0079 or email us with the details for a clear quote.

Can worn sealant in a flat in Walworth cause a leak downstairs?

Yes. In a flat, water from a failed bath or shower seal has only one way to go, and that’s down. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a new bead early stops it getting that far.

Do I have to be there?

If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we’ve agreed the job, you don’t need to watch us work.

Is it worth trying it myself?

It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.

Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?

Tiles that have come away need sorting first. We’ll show you which ones at the start.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned.

Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?

Yes. Many jobs are just the shower walls, or the area where the grout has gone.
