Regrouting in Borestone
Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Borestone. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams in Borestone and across Stirling. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured for the work.
How we handle regrouting in Borestone
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. If you are dealing with grout washed out of a shower and discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles, we can help.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

The process
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. Everything nearby is protected, and the job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. Somewhere like Borestone may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout

Common problems we fix in Borestone
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, until the joints are rough and low.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
Around Borestone, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is chosen
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether all the old sealant comes out first
- What product goes in the joint
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Borestone: your questions answered
I let a flat near Stirling station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and agents as well as homeowners, and several properties can be quoted together. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is Borestone in your area for regrouting?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Borestone is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
What does regrouting cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. We agree the price before any work begins.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
What guarantee comes with the work?
Our 12-month guarantee covers every job, including regrouting.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. We cover Borestone and the rest of Stirling.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Why it’s worth doing now in Borestone
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We will tell you before we start, so you can decide what to do. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting is far less disruptive than retiling. In a place like Borestone, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Borestone
In Scotland, private landlords have to 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. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
If you let a flat or house near Stirling station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
