Regrouting in Blackhills

Across Blackhills, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. Out comes the old grout, the joints are cleaned and new grout goes in, finished with new silicone at the edges. We work on tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and kitchen splashbacks, and people most often call us about grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and splashback grout that has darkened.

For a place like Blackhills, 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.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving
  • Cracked or broken tiles

If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Shower walls
  • Kitchen splashbacks
  • Wet rooms
  • Tiled floors
  • Bathroom floors
  • Bathroom wall tiles

What the job involves on each surface

Corners and edges

The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.

Kitchen splashbacks

Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.

Do you need regrouting in Blackhills?

Poor ventilation keeps grout damp, and damp grout is where mould grows. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.

The most common problems we see are:

  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room
  • Grout in corners that has cracked
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
  • Shower grout that has worn away

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

What regrouting looks like in Blackhills

Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.

If you let a flat or house near Elgin station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:

  • Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Get any tile that moves checked promptly
  • Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal

Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so it’s generally the first thing to need attention.

Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away, so regrouting early can save a retile.

Landlord and commercial work in Blackhills

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.

The process

A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere like Blackhills may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
  2. The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
  3. The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
  4. Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
  5. We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Mention any tricky access
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
