Regrouting in South Lanarkshire: how it works
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk. We are often asked to deal with grout washed out of a shower and grout in corners that has cracked, across bathroom wall tiles, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom floors.
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, depending on the size of the job.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
How we quote

Where we work in South Lanarkshire
In South Lanarkshire, regrouting takes in flats, houses, rentals and businesses, in East Kilbride, Hamilton and Cambuslang and well beyond. The method is the same everywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh finish laid.
We work across all of Scotland, from the cities to the islands, and South Lanarkshire is part of that. Longer journeys are planned in advance, and outdoor work around the weather.
East Kilbride: Schools such as Duncanrig Secondary School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near East Kilbride station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
How we quote for regrouting
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The amount of work
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Access and height
- Working hours on commercial sites
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- A few photos by email, if you can
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
There’s no standard price list, because every job is different. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To arrange one, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. A few tips:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it, so it’s worth acting early.
Why deal with it now?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, and then you’re looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so sound grout really matters. We check the tiles first.
Corners and edges
Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.
South Lanarkshire: your questions answered
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional.
Do you cover South Lanarkshire?
Yes. We work in South Lanarkshire. For a quote, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job, including regrouting.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.
