Regrouting in Broomhouse, done properly
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. It can be a full room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Broomhouse are handled the same careful way. We work on bathroom wall tiles, wet rooms and bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are grout washed out of a shower and a grout colour that no longer suits the room.
In Scotland’s cities, including the area around Broomhouse, many older flats had their bathrooms added into small rooms later on. Rooms like that are often small and slow to dry out, which is hard on sealant and grout.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, whatever its size.

Common problems we fix in Broomhouse
Grout that was put in corners cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and when they are not, water gets in.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Grout washed out of a shower
Homes close to St Joseph's RC Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Regrouting around Broomhouse
There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Broomhouse. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room. 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 Kingsknowe station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. If you look after a building such as Forrester High School, 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.

Why it’s worth doing now in Broomhouse
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and the room is out of use for longer. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in a tall building in Broomhouse, damp can travel a long way before it shows.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Broomhouse
I’m in a tenement in Broomhouse. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?
Yes, and the first sign is often a mark on the ceiling below. Cutting out the old sealant and laying a fresh bead puts a stop to it.
Do you work for landlords with property near Kingsknowe station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, and we’ve been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
Is it messy?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. Many clients do. A darker grout hides marks better, while lighter grout brightens a room.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get a clear time from us before we go. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before the shower is used.
What guarantee comes with the work?
Our 12-month guarantee covers every job.
Is there any odour?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Landlord and commercial work in Broomhouse
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a one-year guarantee.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
When something else is needed
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
If in doubt, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.
