Regrouting in Dunlop, done properly
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, with silicone renewed in the corners. We work on bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are grout that makes sound tiles look old and shower grout that has worn away.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Dunlop work just as hard as those in the cities. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Dunlop
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. 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 doesn’t dry out.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Clandeboye School, its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Dunlop station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.
Dunlop is about 7 miles north of Kilmarnock, in East Ayrshire. Jobs in Dunlop get the same care as everywhere else we work: old sealant removed completely, careful preparation and a one-year guarantee. Dunlop is one of 53 places in East Ayrshire we cover for regrouting. We also work in Glasgow, about 14 miles from Dunlop.

How we quote for regrouting
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether the work is at height
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Any mould that needs treating
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we will explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
- The address or postcode of the job
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we will explain what’s involved and give you a clear price.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
If grout in the shower is washing out, act soon. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. The job normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Clear the area around the work

Advice
Common problems we fix in Dunlop
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, which is why we check the tiles first.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Splashback grout that has darkened
If you live in an older home near Parish Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

FAQs for Dunlop
Do you work for landlords with property near Dunlop station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Can you do regrouting in Dunlop?
Yes, Dunlop is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us, and we’re fully insured.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
Which products do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
How do I get a quote for regrouting in Dunlop?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
How long does regrouting take?
As a guide, most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. Mr Mastic is an ARBOMaster approved applicator and we’re fully insured too.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than do work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

For landlords and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
Why deal with it now?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They don’t fill cracks or stop water and stains often come back through. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. Around Dunlop, 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.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you’re not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
