What sealant work cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant cannot fix:

  • Movement in a stud wall or floor
  • A leaking wet room membrane
  • Tiles that are chipped or split

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

Regrouting in Croy

Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, with silicone renewed in the corners. If you have old grout in a dated colour and grout stained black or orange that won’t clean, we can help, whatever the surface.

Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee.

Common questions in Croy

I let a flat near Inverness Airport station. Can you help?

Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can go on one quote. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.

Do you cover smaller places like Croy?

Yes, Croy is covered. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Which products do you use?

The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.

Do I need to be at home?

It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, and for outside work we will agree access with you when we book.

Do you guarantee regrouting?

You get our 12-month guarantee on every job, and we are fully insured.

Will it make a mess?

Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.

Can I do it myself?

For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.

What if some of my tiles are loose?

Loose tiles need refixing before regrouting. We will show you which ones before any grout comes out.

What regrouting looks like in Croy

Croy is within about 3 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.

If you live in an older home near Croy Parish Church Of Scotland, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Croy is about 7 miles south-west of Nairn, in Highland. Whether you are in the middle of Croy or further out, we cover regrouting for every kind of property. Croy is one of 253 places in Highland we cover. We also work in Aberdeen, around 75 miles away.

Jobs for regrouting in IV2 is quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. That includes homes and businesses on Fraser Lane, MacKinnon Drive and Miller Road and the roads around them. Nearby, we also carry out regrouting in Newlands of Culloden (3 miles south-west), Ardersier (3 miles north), Balloch (4 miles south-west), Viewhill (4 miles south-west) and Cawdor (4 miles east). We also work in nearby towns such as Inverness (9 miles south-west), Nairn (7 miles north-east), Cradlehall (5 miles south-west), Merkinch (9 miles west), Hilton (8 miles south-west) and Alness (15 miles north-west). Island and remote addresses take a little more planning, so tell us where you are when you ask for a quote.

The process

When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Outdoor work around Croy depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice

Why act early in Croy

Patching a few joints can look like a quick win, but the patches often don’t match and the old grout carries on failing. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.

What you pay reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we ask about the job first.

What you get with us

  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • Full insurance on every job
  • 20+ years of sealant experience
  • Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

What we’re called out for in Croy

Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
  • Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor

If you let a flat or house near Inverness Airport station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the job turns out different
  • Are they insured?
  • How the joint is cleaned and prepared
  • Who does the work, and how experienced they are

Different surfaces, different methods

Corners and edges

The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.

Wet rooms

Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.

Aftercare tips

Good habits help new joints last longer. Our tips:

  • Rinse the tiles after showering
  • Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
  • Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
  • Keep the fan on after showering

Check the corner silicone now and then. Corners flex, so the sealant there will need renewing in time, long before the grout does.

Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough so early action pays.

Can I do it myself?

The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
