Regrouting in Burghmuirhead
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. We work on shower walls, bathroom floors and tiled floors, and common reasons people get in touch are grout in a colour the owner wants to change and grout washed out of a shower.
Stone-built tenements are part of every Scottish city, alongside suburban houses and modern blocks. In a tenement, most bathrooms sit above someone else’s ceiling, so failed sealant around a bath or shower can soon become a neighbour’s problem, and that is as true in Burghmuirhead as anywhere in the city.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so good grout is important. We check the tiles first.
What regrouting looks like in Burghmuirhead
Burghmuirhead is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Burghmuirhead. As well as homes, we work in hotel bathrooms, where resealing and regrouting can be done room by room.
Rented homes near Haymarket station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant. For an older house near a landmark such as North Morningside Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.
Burghmuirhead is about 1 mile south of Edinburgh, in Edinburgh. From the centre of Burghmuirhead to the outskirts, regrouting is available for homes and businesses alike, from flats and houses to offices and hotels. Our Edinburgh coverage runs to 175 places, Burghmuirhead among them.

When to call us in Burghmuirhead
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down with repeated use, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Iain Tomlin School of Music, 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.

Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
What we do, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the tidy-up. Parking in city streets around Burghmuirhead can be tight or controlled, so it helps to know about permits or nearby bays. If you’re in a flat, let us know how we get in at the street door.
- 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.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

Advice
What affects the quote in Burghmuirhead
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of sealant required
- How easy the joints are to reach
- When we can work, for business premises
- Any mould that needs treating
Combining jobs into one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. We’ll give you a clear quote for the lot.
What we need to know
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Whether it’s a home or a business
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email pictures if that is easy.
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 that we can handle for you.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. Several properties can be quoted together.
