Regrouting for homes and businesses in Budhill
Before any work starts, the tiles are checked. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, because regrouting won’t fix what’s behind them. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. We work on kitchen splashbacks, wet rooms and bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and grout that makes sound tiles look old.
Scotland’s cities have a lot of flats, from sandstone or granite tenements to modern blocks, as well as houses in the suburbs. Scottish water is generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas, but mould still grows into sealant and grout in a steamy bathroom.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Budhill homes and their sealant
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 doesn’t dry out. Glasgow has a lot of sandstone tenements, where most bathrooms sit above another flat.
Homes close to St Serf's Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. Managing a site like Eastbank Academy? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Landmarks near Budhill
Typical jobs here are in homes near St Andrew's Secondary School and Parkhead Library, among other places. Budhill has its own railway station: Shettleston station.

What we are called out for in Budhill
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.
The most common problems we see are:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
Letting a property close to Shettleston station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so good grout is important. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so everything is renewed at once.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- A leaking wet room membrane
If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Wet rooms
- Shower walls
- Bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Bathroom wall tiles
Can I do it myself?
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.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
How to look after the new joints
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.

What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work starts. The work normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Inside a flat in Budhill, the job is planned with you; outside, shared parts may need the factor or other owners involved. Tell us which applies when you book.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag 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.
Preparing for the visit

Advice
Budhill questions
Can you do regrouting in Budhill?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Budhill is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
Can a failed shower seal in a tenement flat in Budhill leak into the flat below?
It can. Tenement floors are usually timber, and water from a failed seal can find its way down to the flat below, and then the repair involves your neighbours too. It’s worth sorting sealant and grout before it gets that far.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes, that is common. The shower normally fails first, so it’s often the only area that needs doing.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
It can. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint, not just the surface.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
