What we can’t put right

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • A leaking shower valve or waste
  • A structure that flexes behind the tiles

If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think.

How we handle regrouting in Ardgay

Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on bathroom wall tiles, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls, and the jobs we see most are gaps where the shower grout has gone and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean.

In and around a place like Ardgay, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ardgay

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and the access arrangements and we will give you a quote.

From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Why deal with it now?

Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but mould that has got into grout usually comes back. Replacing the grout and resealing the edges is a lasting fix. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a quick quote, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll talk you through it.

Quotes for regrouting in Ardgay

Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:

  • Whether there’s mould to deal with
  • The size of the job
  • Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
  • Access and height

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. You will know the price before we begin.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:

  • Whether it’s a home or a business
  • Where the property is
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • If someone has resealed it before

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll explain what’s involved.

Looking after it afterwards

No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:

  • Skip wire brushes and scourers
  • Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
  • Keep the fan on after showering
  • Use gentle cleaners on grout

Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.

Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.

When to call us in Ardgay

Hard water and soap leave a film on grout and stick to it. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, and at that point, new grout is the better answer.

Any of these means the joints need attention:

  • Grout in corners that has cracked
  • Floor grout that won’t come clean
  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Old grout in a dated colour

Around Ardgay, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Before booking anyone

  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • What the quote includes, VAT included or not

Regrouting in Ardgay: local notes

Ardgay 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. 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.

Letting a property close to Ardgay station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Ardgay is about 28 miles north-west of Nairn, in Highland. Anywhere in IV24, we cover regrouting for homes and businesses. 253 places in Highland are on our list.

What happens on the day

On the day, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Outdoor work around Ardgay depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.

  1. First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
  2. Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
  3. We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
  4. Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
  5. The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.

Before we arrive

  • On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice

Ardgay: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Ardgay?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

How long does regrouting take?

It depends on the size of the job, but most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. We will tell you when we quote.

Should I try DIY first?

Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

Do you reseal at the same time?

We normally do. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and could still leak.

Will the old sealant be removed?

Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint before applying anything new.

Should corners be grouted or sealed?

Corners get silicone, not grout. They move slightly and grout can’t take that movement.

Can you work on commercial sites?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
