Regrouting near Wytham

How we handle regrouting in Wytham

Before we start, the tiles are checked. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. Common call-outs are for grout washed out of a shower and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, across wet rooms, bathroom wall tiles and shower walls.

Homes around Wytham are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats. The work is the same as anywhere: everything old comes out before the new sealant or grout goes in.

All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months.

Leave it or put it right?

Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We point that out first so you know what’s involved. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. Older cottages and farmhouses around Wytham can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference.

What you get with us

  • Tidy, careful work
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Every job guaranteed for a year
  • Fully insured

Wytham homes and their sealant

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

In the older streets around Church of All Saints, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Letting a property close to Oxford Parkway station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Common problems we fix in Wytham

Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and when they are not, water gets in.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Shower grout that has worn away
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
  • Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease

If you look after a building such as Oxford Academy, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room for a typical job. For a village or hamlet like Wytham, the journey is planned in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives and where we can park. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
  2. We remove the old grout carefully.
  3. The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. Internal corners and edges are resealed.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any water getting in
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

FAQs for Wytham

Do you work for landlords with property near Oxford Parkway station?

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

Do you cover smaller places like Wytham?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

What guarantee comes with the work?

You get our 12-month guarantee on every job. We’re also fully insured.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

Corners get silicone, not grout. They flex, and grout there cracks.

Where do you work from?

We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.

How long does the job take?

It depends on the size of the job, but as a guide it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. We’ll give you a better idea when we quote.

Do I have to be there?

That depends on where the joints are. Inside work needs someone to give us access, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.

What information do you need?

Tell us what needs doing and where, with pictures by email if possible. We will ask anything else we need to know.

Should I try it myself first?

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:

  • Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
  • Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges

Clean the grout with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers, as they can break grout down.

Grout that is washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.

Different surfaces, different methods

Bathroom wall tiles

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

Kitchen splashbacks

We can regroute a splashback with the kitchen left in place. The worktop edge is finished with silicone.
