Regrouting in Canonbie

Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, without damaging the edges of the tiles. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, with silicone renewed in the corners. We work on bathroom wall tiles, shower walls and kitchen splashbacks, and the jobs we see most are kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and cracked grout along the bath or tray.

Bathrooms in smaller places like Canonbie work just as hard as those in the cities. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.

There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Different surfaces, different methods

Bathroom wall tiles

Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on the area. You can change the colour at the same time.

Kitchen splashbacks

Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.

Canonbie questions

Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Canonbie?

Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Will you come out to Canonbie?

Yes, Canonbie is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.

Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?

Loose or hollow tiles are a sign of a problem behind them. Regrouting alone is not the answer, and we will tell you before we start.

Where are you based?

We are a Crawley-based firm. We work across South East England, London and Scotland.

How long does the job take?

Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.

Do you do commercial work?

Yes. We work in offices, washrooms, hotels and other commercial premises, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.

Which products do you use?

Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, picked for each joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.

Do you reseal at the same time?

In most cases, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.

Regrouting around Canonbie

Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.

In and around Canonbie, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Leave it or put it right?

With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and the room is out of use for longer. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. In an older home around Canonbie, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

What happens on the day

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room for a typical job. Around Canonbie, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.

  1. First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
  5. Internal corners and edges are resealed.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Tell us if parking is tricky

Related advice

When to call us in Canonbie

When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, so we check the tiles before we start.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Grout that makes sound tiles look old
  • Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room
  • Floor grout that will not come clean

For an older house near a landmark such as Canonbie Parish Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

When something else is needed

Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:

  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A leaking shower valve or waste
  • Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling

If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How we quote for regrouting

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access and height
  • Mould in or behind the old joints
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • When we can work, for business premises

Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • Roughly how big the job is

The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that’s easy.
