Regrouting for homes and businesses in Cullivoe
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk. We work on shower walls, kitchen splashbacks and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Cullivoe work just as hard as those in the cities. Limescale is less of a problem with Scotland’s generally soft water, but mould still takes hold in damp sealant and grout.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Shetland Islands.

Your questions about regrouting in Cullivoe
What guarantee comes with regrouting in Cullivoe?
All our work, in Cullivoe and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you cover Cullivoe for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Cullivoe is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we can confirm the details when we quote.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme.
Is it messy?
Tidy work is part of the job. Nearby surfaces are protected, and we clear up when we are done.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
We will tell you on the day. It depends on the grout and the sealant used, so follow the time we give you.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you need regrouting in Cullivoe?
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Some bleaches and acid descalers break grout down with repeated use, until the joints are rough and low.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Splashback grout that has darkened
Homes close to St Olaf's Church include some older properties, and timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What affects the cost of regrouting
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. What we look at:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Whether the work is at height
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Which sealant suits the joint
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Where the job is, and your postcode
Need a quote? Please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details. You’ll know what we plan to do, and what it will cost, before any work begins.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
Regrouting in Cullivoe: local notes
Cullivoe is within about 1 mile 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. Work on the islands has to be planned around ferry crossings and the weather, so give us as much notice as you can.
In and around Cullivoe, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.
Cullivoe is in the Shetland Islands. We carry out regrouting for householders, landlords and businesses in Cullivoe, as part of our work across the Shetland Islands. Across the Shetland Islands, we cover 63 places, and Cullivoe is one of them.

What else we do in Cullivoe
The process
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Around Cullivoe, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it cures fully. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets behind the tiles, and they can begin to come away and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so here’s what sealant cannot put right:
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A leaking wet room membrane
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.
