About our regrouting in Aird Tong
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. We work on kitchen splashbacks, wet rooms and bathroom wall tiles, and people most often call us about splashback grout that has darkened and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Aird Tong work just as hard as those in the cities. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once the job is done.

Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What we do, step by step
We work through the job in order: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, and the area is left clean. For a place like Aird Tong, longer drives are planned in advance. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

- Cracked or broken tiles
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and often a few days without a shower. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. In an older home around Aird Tong, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Why book with us
- We’re fully insured
- Trusted Arbo and Everbuild sealants
- We leave the area clean and tidy
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

When to call us in Aird Tong
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
For jobs in and around Aird Tong, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so sound grout really matters. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.

All about regrouting
Regrouting around Aird Tong
Aird Tong is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
In and around Aird Tong, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Does someone need to be in?
