About our regrouting in Garnkirk
Grout fills the gaps between 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 and renew the silicone at the edges. We work on tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are grout washed out of a shower and grout in a colour the owner wants to change.
A bathroom in a place like Garnkirk gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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.
Signs you need regrouting in Garnkirk
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before we start.
The most common problems we see are:
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Floor grout that will not come clean
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Chryston High School, 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.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- Whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether you can choose the colour
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on the size of the job. Outside jobs in Garnkirk need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Preparing for the visit
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so everything is renewed at once.
Wet rooms
Regrouting a wet room helps keep water on the surface of the tiles. It doesn’t repair failed tanking underneath.
What regrouting looks like in Garnkirk
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.

Leave it or put it right?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, and then you are looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Around Garnkirk, 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.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all, and any smell fades as they cure.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
Wipe the tiles down after a shower keeps water off the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. At this point it’s a simple regrout, before the joints open up.
