Regrouting in Gilmerton, done properly
Stained, crumbling or cracked grout can make a sound bathroom look tired. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. We work on wet rooms, bathroom wall tiles and bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are stained grout that cleaning won’t shift and crumbling grout between the tiles.
Being further from a city does not change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Gilmerton and everywhere else we cover.

For landlords and businesses
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Gilmerton homes and their sealant
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. 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 Gilmerton, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

What we are called out for in Gilmerton
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
The problems people generally mention when they call include:
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
For an older house near a landmark such as Gilmerton Church House, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Aftercare tips
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. Corners flex, so it’s generally the first thing to need attention.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it so early action pays.
The process
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. The job usually takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, and we explain the cure time before we leave. Outdoor work around Gilmerton depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. 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.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice
Gilmerton: your questions answered
Do you cover Gilmerton for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Gilmerton is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Gilmerton?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we clear up the old sealant and our materials before we leave.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we are fully insured.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom wall tiles
Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so everything is renewed at once.
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’re looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and once water gets behind a failed joint, damp in stone or harled walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.
What you get with us
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- 20+ years of sealant experience
