Regrouting for Broxburn homes and businesses

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broxburn

We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.

Regrouting in Broxburn, done properly

We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. If you’re dealing with grout washed out of a shower and cracked or crumbling grout lines, we can help.

In and around a place like Broxburn, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.

Every job comes with a one-year guarantee.

What do you need from me for a quote?

The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.

Can tenants book the work?

Are you an approved applicator?

Quotes for regrouting in Broxburn

You will get a clear quote before work begins. It’s based on:

  • How easy the joints are to reach
  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.

What to tell us for a quote

When you call or email, it’s useful to know:

  • Whether it has been sealed before
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • The address or postcode of the job
  • Roughly how big the job is

We don’t publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear quote for your job. To get started, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Why deal with it now?

With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and often a few days without a shower. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. In an older home around Broxburn, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.

What it costs depends on how much there is to do, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. We give a clear quote before work begins.

How the visit works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere like Broxburn may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
  2. Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
  3. The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
  4. New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
  5. We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if parking is tricky
  • For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Bathrooms and kitchens in Broxburn

Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.

Schools such as Our Lady's High School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Can I do it myself?

The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. All the old material has to come out first.

Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

Different surfaces, different methods

Wet rooms

Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.

Corners and edges

The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout there would crack.

Common problems we fix in Broxburn

Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down with repeated use, leaving the joints sunken and rough.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Floor grout that has worn and darkened
  • Cracked or crumbling grout lines
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
  • Stained grout that cleaning will not shift

Rented homes near Uphall station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
