Your questions about regrouting in Gorgie
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Slateford station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Could a leaking bath seal in my Gorgie flat reach the neighbours below?
Yes, and the first sign is often a mark on the ceiling below. A proper reseal, with all the old sealant cut out, stops it at the source.
Do I have to be there?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Will it make a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. After that, simply drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
How much does regrouting cost in Gorgie?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
What guarantee comes with the work?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, including regrouting.
About our regrouting in Gorgie
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Just mention the colour you’d like when you email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk. If you are dealing with a grout colour that no longer suits the room and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, we can help, on bathroom floors, wet rooms and bathroom wall tiles alike.
In Scotland’s cities, including the area around Gorgie, many older flats had their bathrooms added into small rooms later on. Rooms like that are often small and slow to dry out, which is hard on sealant and grout.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

What affects the quote in Gorgie
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Which sealant suits the joint
- The size of the job
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller, because water and mould keep working on it. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
Helping us quote
To make quoting easier, let us know:
- How we’d reach the joints
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- A few pictures by email, if you can
- The address or postcode of the job
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
If you manage several properties in or around Gorgie, several properties can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies keeps a property looking cared for before the next move-in.

How to look after the new joints
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. Corners flex, so it’s normally the first thing to need attention.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
What we do, step by step
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so you don’t need to buy or prepare anything. After a quick look at the joints together, we protect the area and start. Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. In a city area like Gorgie, parking may be by permit or pay-and-display, so tell us what’s nearby. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

What regrouting looks like in Gorgie
Gorgie is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. Tenement flats are common across Edinburgh, and in a tenement, a leaking seal can reach the neighbours below.
Letting a property close to Slateford station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
Gorgie is about 1 mile south-west of Edinburgh, in Edinburgh. We provide regrouting to homes and businesses in Gorgie. We cover 175 towns and villages across Edinburgh.
Jobs for regrouting in EH11, EH14 and EH10 works the same way as everywhere else we cover. If you need regrouting at a property on Appin Lane, Cowan Road and Gorgie Road or a nearby road, our applicators can take on the job. We also cover Shandon (1 mile east), Polwarth (1 mile south-east), Westfield (1 mile north-west), Slateford (1 mile south-west) and Chesser (1 mile south-west). Larger places within reach include Leith (4 miles north-east), Bonnington (3 miles north-east), Gayfield (3 miles north-east), Pilrig (3 miles north-east), North Leith (4 miles north-east) and Queensferry (7 miles north-west).
What’s near Gorgie
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to The Athletic Arms, Gabrielle Keiller Library and Harrison Park and the streets around them. Also close by are Boroughmuir High School (1 mile east) and Iain Tomlin School of Music (0.8 miles east). For rail, the closest station is Slateford station, about 0.6 miles south-west. Well-known places in the area include Royal Edinburgh Hospital (0.8 miles south-east) and Merchiston Tower (0.8 miles east). The countryside around Gorgie includes Craiglockhart Hill and Dunsapie Loch.
What we are called out for in Gorgie
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. Loose tiles, bouncy floors and timber walls can all do it, which is why we check the tiles first.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
Managing a site like Craiglockhart Primary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It does not repair failed tanking underneath.
Shower walls
Showers put more water on grout than anywhere else. We replace it, and reseal the corners.
Should I try it myself first?
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.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
