About our regrouting in Arbuthnott
We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, or just the area that has failed. Whatever the size, the method stays the same. Common call-outs are for dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and good tiles let down by tired grout, across wet rooms, tiled floors and bathroom wall tiles.
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.
All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee, wherever you are in Aberdeenshire.

Arbuthnott questions
Is Arbuthnott within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Is Arbuthnott in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Arbuthnott is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Ventilation helps.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
How long should I wait before showering?
The wait depends on the materials and how warm the room is. We’ll tell you exactly how long when the job is done.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes, we often do. Shower grout tends to go before the rest, so many people regrout just that part.
Different surfaces, different methods
Corners and edges
Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so grout there works hardest. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant can’t put right:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Why deal with it now?
If tiles are loose, regrouting alone is not the answer. We’ll tell you before any work starts, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.
Why us?
- We never seal over old sealant
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
- Domestic, commercial and hotel work
- We’re fully insured

What we’re called out for in Arbuthnott
Hard water and soap leave a film on grout and stick to it. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, which is when replacing it makes sense.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Splashback grout that has darkened
Homes close to Arbuthnott Parish Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
What your quote should include
- How the colour is chosen
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What insurance they hold
- How hidden problems are handled
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Arbuthnott
Arbuthnott is within about 3 miles 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. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
Around Arbuthnott, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.
