How we handle regrouting in Aberlady
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout can’t fix a problem underneath. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. If you have grout in corners that has cracked and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned, we can put it right, on bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms alike.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

The process
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself usually takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on the size of the job. For a place like Aberlady, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

When to call us in Aberlady
A poor original job is a common cause. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly can wash out within a few years.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
For an older house near a landmark such as Aberlady Parish Church and Graveyard, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Questions from Aberlady
Is Aberlady within the area you cover?
Yes. Aberlady is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
I let a flat near Longniddry station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
What does regrouting cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and include it in your quote.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes, we often do. The shower generally fails first, so many people regrout just that part.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. More than one area can go on one quote.
What sealant work cannot fix
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Cracked or broken tiles
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
Not sure which it is? You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Where we work in Aberlady
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Shower walls
- Wet rooms
- Tiled floors
- Bathroom floors
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
Check the corner silicone now and then. Corners flex, so the sealant there will need renewing in time, long before the grout does.
Grout that is washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.

What else we do in Aberlady
Regrouting in Aberlady: local notes
Aberlady is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
If you let a flat or house near Longniddry station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Why it’s worth doing now in Aberlady
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but the patches often don’t match and the old grout carries on failing. Regrouting the whole area gives an even, lasting finish. In a place like Aberlady, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Combining jobs into one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why us?
- Arbo and Everbuild products
- Experience in homes, commercial sites and hotels
- 20+ years of sealant experience
- We never seal over old sealant

How the job changes by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on the area. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.
Kitchen splashbacks
Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.
