Regrouting in Dunkeld
Problem with your tiled areas in Dunkeld? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
Surface by surface
Corners and edges
Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so grout there works hardest. It usually fails first.
Regrouting in Dunkeld
When grout stays dark however much you clean it, the stain is often in the grout itself. Replacing it is the lasting answer, and it’s a chance to change the colour too. Common call-outs are for grout that makes sound tiles look old and crumbling grout between the tiles, across wet rooms, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are normally the first signs.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same 12-month guarantee in Dunkeld and across Perth and Kinross.

Your questions about regrouting in Dunkeld
Is Dunkeld within the area you cover?
Yes, Dunkeld is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Do you work for landlords with property near Dunkeld & Birnam station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
When can I use the shower again?
We give you a time before we leave. It depends on the grout and the sealant used so please stick to it.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status and we are fully insured too.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Bigger jobs take longer.
Where are you based?
We work from Crawley. We cover Dunkeld and the rest of Perth and Kinross, along with the rest of our area.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
Yes, we often do. The shower generally fails first, so many people regrout just that part.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
DIY versus a professional finish
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
What we are called out for in Dunkeld
Hard water and soap leave a film on grout that’s hard to shift. In time the grout under it darkens and breaks down, and at that point, new grout is the better answer.
People normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
Around Dunkeld, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Before booking anyone
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Who does the work, and how experienced they are
- Whether they’re fully insured
What happens on the day
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work starts. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Outdoor work around Dunkeld depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention any parking rules near the property
