Regrouting for homes and businesses in Fordoun
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water can get in behind the tiles. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. We work on wet rooms, shower walls and tiled floors, and people most often call us about discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and old grout in a dated colour.
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.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

How the visit works
On the day, there’s very little for you to do. Show us the job and we’ll take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Somewhere like Fordoun may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

Advice
Can I do it myself?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again.
When something else is needed
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Failed tanking or waterproofing under the tiles
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Bathroom floors
- Tiled floors
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Shower walls
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Wet rooms
What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on size. You can change the colour at the same time.
Bathroom floors
Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It wears and darkens over time.
How we quote for regrouting
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether the work is at height
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- How many areas need sealing
Combining jobs into one visit usually makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
For a quote, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the location and a short description of the problem. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.

Regrouting in Fordoun: local notes
In Scotland, private landlords have to 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. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
In and around Fordoun, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. If you let a flat or house near Laurencekirk station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
Fordoun is about 11 miles north of Montrose, in Aberdeenshire. Homes, rented property, offices and hotels in Fordoun can book us for regrouting, old or new, large or small. Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee. Our area takes in 161 places across Aberdeenshire. You can also see our page for Aberdeen, about 22 miles away.

Fordoun: your questions answered
Will you come out to Fordoun?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Do you work for landlords with property near Laurencekirk station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Most of the time, yes. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.
How long will you be here?
A typical job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
Our one-year guarantee covers every job.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Do the sealants smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
Leave it or put it right?
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling means stripping the walls, making good and choosing new tiles, and often a few days without a shower. If the tiles are sound, regrouting is the simpler fix. Around Fordoun, 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.
The cost depends on how much there is to do, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts.
