Regrouting in Ceann Tangabhal, done properly

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, and the corners get fresh silicone. We work on bathroom wall tiles, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms, and the jobs we see most are grout in corners that has cracked and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned.

In and around a place like Ceann Tangabhal, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are normally the first signs.

Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Na h-Eileanan Siar.

When to call us in Ceann Tangabhal

Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.

It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:

  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • A grout colour that no longer suits the room
  • Floor grout that has worn and darkened
  • Greasy, stained grout behind the hob

Homes close to Church of our Lady include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

What your quote should include

  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Is the old sealant removed completely?
  • Is VAT in the price?
  • How long the guarantee is

Choosing a sealant specialist

How the visit works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Outdoor work around Ceann Tangabhal depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.

  1. We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
  2. The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
  3. Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
  4. We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
  5. Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Move anything stored near the joints
  • Let us know about parking restrictions

Surface by surface

Kitchen splashbacks

Splashback grout picks up grease and cooking stains. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.

Bathroom wall tiles

We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on the area. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.

What affects the cost of regrouting

You will get a clear quote before any work starts. It takes into account:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • Any mould that needs treating

Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

What to tell us for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • How we’d reach the joints
  • What’s wrong with the joints now
  • How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work

For a quick quote, get us on the phone, or email us if that’s easier. Describe what needs sealing and we will talk you through the work before giving you a price.

What we cannot put right

New sealant can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. Sealant will not put right:

  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • Damaged tiles that need replacing
  • Tiles that are loose or hollow behind

Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

  • Shower walls
  • Tiled floors
  • Wet rooms
  • Bathroom wall tiles
  • Bathroom floors
  • Kitchen splashbacks

Why it’s worth doing now in Ceann Tangabhal

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. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Around Ceann Tangabhal, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.

Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: the amount of work, the access and the products needed. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How to look after the new joints

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
  • Keep the fan on after showering
  • Check the corner silicone every few months
  • Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner

Check the corner silicone now and then. Corners flex, so it’s normally the first thing to need attention.

Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

Regrouting in Ceann Tangabhal: local notes

Ceann Tangabhal is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. In Scotland, private landlords have to 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.

If you look after a building such as Castlebay Community School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
