Regrouting in Bardowie

Regrouting in Bardowie

We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout cannot fix a problem underneath. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. We work on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom wall tiles and shower walls, and the jobs we see most are grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and floor grout that has worn and darkened.

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.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

DIY versus a professional finish

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.

What the job involves on each surface

Bathroom wall tiles

Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on size. You can change the colour at the same time.

Wet rooms

Both the grout and the silicone in a wet room matter. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.

Bardowie questions

Will you come out to Bardowie?

Yes, we do. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Is Bardowie in your area for regrouting?

Yes, Bardowie is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Is there any odour?

Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.

Do I have to be there?

Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.

Do you guarantee regrouting?

Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, and we’re fully insured.

How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?

We give you a time before we leave. It depends on the grout and the sealant used so please stick to it.

How much does regrouting cost in Bardowie?

The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.

Will regrouting fix loose tiles?

New grout can’t hold loose tiles in place. We check the tiles first and tell you if any are loose or hollow so you know where you stand.

How the visit works

The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can carry on as normal. The job normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. Outside jobs in Bardowie need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Keep children and pets away from the work area

Advice

Bardowie homes and their sealant

Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.

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

What happens if it’s left?

New grout smeared over the old does not bond well. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In an older home around Bardowie, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

Doing several joints on one visit is generally more efficient than separate visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • Pictures of the joints, sent by email

Common problems we fix in Bardowie

Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down, especially in a shower that is used every day.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Grout that is cracking and breaking up
  • Shower grout that has worn away
  • Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Boclair Academy, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • When the joint can take water or movement
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
