How we handle regrouting in Direcleit
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. Typical jobs include grout washed out of a shower and grout that makes sound tiles look old, on bathroom floors, tiled floors and shower walls.
In and around a place like Direcleit, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.

Regrouting around Direcleit
Direcleit is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so the more notice, the better.
Homes close to Parish Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We point that out first so you know what’s involved. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. Around Direcleit, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Direcleit: your questions answered
Is Direcleit within the area you cover?
Yes. Direcleit is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Direcleit?
All our work, in Direcleit and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.
When can I use the shower again?
The wait depends on the materials and how warm the room is. We’ll give you a time to follow at the end of the visit.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
How do I get a quote for regrouting in Direcleit?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. Many clients do. Darker grout can hide marks, while lighter grout brightens a room.
Do you need regrouting in Direcleit?
Hard water and soap leave a film on grout that’s hard to shift. The grout beneath can stain and weaken, and at that point, new grout is the better answer.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles

What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We renew both.
Corners and edges
Internal corners move, so they get silicone, not grout.
What happens on the day
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Around Direcleit, 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.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
