Regrouting FAQs
The regrouting service offered by Tile Cleaners ® is the process of removing old grout with a specialised mechanical tool that will not affect the tiles. Then, the area is cleaned and a proper new grout will be applied.
Regrouting should be done as soon as you notice the grout getting yellow, looking mouldy, discoloured or the grout is starting to come out. The damaged grout my not look too bad from the outside, but it can be a dangerous situation from behind the tiles. Sometimes grout can be leaking water; this might be due to missing grout or cracked grout. Even tiny holes, or hairline cracks, can cause a major problem.
Once an area has been regrouted, Tile Cleaners ® strongly recommend that the new grout be sealed to prolong the life and the new look of the new grout. The sealer will help protect the grout and make it easier and safer to clean.
Regrouting has many benefits over retiling and may be advised when you have tiles in good condition but the grout is starting to corrode. It will significantly improve the appearance of any tiled area. It will bring back that fresh clean look at an affordable price that suites all budgets. Regrouting is suitable for all tiled areas. Regrouting has the cheaper price and shorter periods of time benefit over retiling and is more environmentally friendly as it saves on carbon emission compared to retiling.
Yes, Tile Cleaners ® $custom_city can regrout floor and wall tiles.
Cleaning is the process of cleaning the grout with our machines, to ensure the absence of dirt and dust, therefore when we apply the sealer, the grout is clean and there are no barrier layers between the sealer and the grout. The sealer then will be applied, with the help of various Tile Cleaners tools, depending on the condition and setting of your tiles. Regrouting on the other hand is the process of replacing the grout between your tiles, with new grout. Tile Cleaners ® $custom_city use a mechanical tool to scrub out the old grout. After that is done, then we proceed with cleaning and then reapplying new grout between the tiles. These are two different processes and you might need to clean and seal after you are done with regrouting your tiles.
