Regrouting in Balemartine
Tiled areas in Balemartine need attention? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a one-year guarantee.
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Balemartine
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they need flexible silicone instead. Renewing both together means nothing is left half-done. If you have old grout in a dated colour and shower grout that has worn away, we can put it right.
For a place like Balemartine, the job is the same as anywhere: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

What happens on the day
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Outdoor work around Balemartine depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Let us know about parking restrictions

Advice
Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout with a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it because they wear grout away.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.
FAQs for Balemartine
Is Balemartine in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Balemartine is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is regrouting in Balemartine guaranteed?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will tell you what we’re using.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, so we never do it.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.
Can landlords and businesses book you?
Yes. We work in homes, commercial premises and hotels, and we’re fully insured.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need.
Balemartine homes and their sealant
Balemartine is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
For jobs in and around Balemartine, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

Signs you need regrouting in Balemartine
Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down, especially in a shower that is used every day.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
In and around Balemartine, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

DIY versus a professional finish
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, 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.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
