Regrouting in Craigend
We cover Craigend for raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and every job guaranteed for a year.
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
Keeping the joints in good condition
Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
Check the corner silicone now and then. Corners flex, so it’s generally the first thing to need attention.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
About our regrouting in Craigend
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. We rake it out and replace it, then reseal the corners and edges. Typical jobs include grout in a colour the owner wants to change and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, across wet rooms, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom floors.
From stone-built tenements to new flats and suburban houses, Craigend is in a city with every kind of home. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam and poor ventilation still let mould into the sealant and grout.
We stand behind the work with a 12-month guarantee, so you are covered after we’ve gone.

What regrouting looks like in Craigend
Sandstone tenements are a big part of Glasgow’s housing, so many bathrooms sit right above a neighbour’s ceiling. 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.
Schools such as St Andrew's Secondary School are buildings too, and 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.

How it works
Good joint work is mostly preparation, so that’s where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Many homes in Scotland’s cities are tenement flats, reached through a shared close and up a common stair. For a job in Craigend, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

How the job changes by surface
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We check the tiles before regrouting.
Corners and edges
Corners flex as the building moves, so we seal them rather than grout them.

Craigend: your questions answered
Can a failed shower seal in a tenement flat in Craigend leak into the flat below?
It can. Tenement floors are normally timber, and water from a failed seal can find its way down to the flat below. It’s worth sorting sealant and grout before it gets that far.
Can you do regrouting in Craigend?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Craigend is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
You will get a clear time from us before we go. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before they get wet.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
What does regrouting cost?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing and where.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. As well as homeowners, we work for landlords, agents, businesses and hotels across Glasgow.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location. If we need more, we will ask.
Do you need regrouting in Craigend?
Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
If you let a flat or house near Robroyston station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long to leave it before use
- What the quote includes, VAT included or not

How we quote for regrouting
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How easy the joints are to reach
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are unsure, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.
