About our regrouting in Bower
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Bower are handled the same careful way. If you are dealing with grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and shower grout that has worn away, we can put it right, on tiled floors, wet rooms and kitchen splashbacks alike.
In and around a place like Bower, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are generally the first signs.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bower and across Highland.

Questions from Bower
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Bower?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Is Bower within the area you cover?
Yes, Bower is covered. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can tenants book the work?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.
Where do you work from?
We work from Crawley. Our applicators cover Bower.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
Loose tiles need refixing before regrouting. We’ll show you which ones at the start.
DIY versus a professional finish
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
What else we do in Bower
What regrouting looks like in Bower
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 does not dry out.
For an older house near a landmark such as Bower Parish Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Bower is about 9 miles east of Thurso, in Highland. Our applicators cover regrouting for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Bower, as part of our work across Highland. Across Highland, we cover 253 places, Bower among them.

Why it’s worth doing now in Bower
New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout and a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it, as they can break grout down.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough so early action pays.
