How we handle regrouting in Cranhill
Before we start, 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. If you’re dealing with cracked grout along the bath or tray and grout in a colour the owner wants to change, we can put it right, on shower walls, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors alike.
Cranhill is in one of Scotland’s four big cities, where many tenement bathrooms were fitted into rooms that weren’t built for them. Rooms like that are often small and slow to dry out, which is hard on sealant and grout.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Leave it or put it right?
Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, and then you’re looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Private landlords in Cranhill must meet the Repairing Standard, and damp or leaks can fall short of it, so it’s worth fixing failed sealant before a tenant reports it.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room for a typical job. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. For a job in Cranhill, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Before we arrive
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear the area around the work

Surface by surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Tiles away from the shower stay drier but still stain and crack. Regrouting brings them back in line.
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so grout there works hardest. It normally fails first.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- A leaking shower valve or waste
- A leaking wet room membrane
- Tiles that are chipped or split
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Do you need regrouting in Cranhill?
A poor original job is a common cause. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly can wash out within a few years.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
If you let a flat or house near Carntyne station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

Your questions about regrouting in Cranhill
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Carntyne station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
I’m in a tenement in Cranhill. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?
Yes, it can. In a tenement, water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and through to the ceiling below. Replacing tired sealant early is the simplest way to avoid that.
Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Can you regrout just the shower?
We can. We will look at the rest of the room too and tell you if anything else needs attention.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it often makes sense. Doing several areas at once is generally more efficient, so mention them when you ask for a quote.
What regrouting looks like in Cranhill
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. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
If you look after a building such as St Andrew's Secondary School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
