Regrouting in D'Arcy

How we handle regrouting in D'Arcy

We work across D'Arcy, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. If you’re dealing with dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and corners filled with grout instead of silicone, we can put it right, on tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and shower walls alike.

Being further from a city does not change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.

Every job comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Midlothian.

What we can’t put right

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first

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

Where we work in D'Arcy

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

What we’re called out for in D'Arcy

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.

The most common problems we see are:

  • Grout that is cracking and breaking up
  • Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone

Managing a site like Newbattle Community High School? Then 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.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

At the end, we look at the finished work together and explain the cure time. The visit itself normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, depending on the size of the job. For a place like D'Arcy, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.

  1. First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the joints have been sealed before
  • Clear items away from the joints we are working on
  • Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit

Advice

How the job changes by surface

Shower walls

Shower walls get wet every day, so its grout takes the most punishment. It’s often the first place grout washes out.

Bathroom wall tiles

We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on size. You can change the colour at the same time.

D'Arcy homes and their sealant

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 does not dry out. 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.

Letting a property close to Newtongrange station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Keeping the joints in good condition

Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
  • Use gentle cleaners on grout
  • Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose

Have any tile that moves checked straight away. Movement will crack the new grout and lets water in.

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.
