Questions from Grimness
Do you cover Grimness for regrouting?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Grimness is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Grimness?
Every job comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is it messy?
We keep the work tidy. Nearby surfaces are protected.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
We can. We will check the other tiled areas as well and tell you if anything else needs attention.
Do you grout the corners?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. With the old grout removed, the new colour fills the whole joint rather than sitting on top.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we’ll quote it together.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is Crawley. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
How we handle regrouting in Grimness
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. You might go from white to grey, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. We’re often asked to deal with grout that makes sound tiles look old and grout in corners that has cracked, on bathroom wall tiles, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

What regrouting looks like in Grimness
Grimness is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
In and around Grimness, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint. Whether the job is in Grimness itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Grimness is about 11 miles south of Kirkwall, in the Orkney Islands. We provide regrouting to homeowners, landlords and businesses in Grimness and nearby. We cover 51 towns and villages across the Orkney Islands, large and small.

Why act early in Grimness
With regrouting, your tiles stay where they are. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and often a few days without a shower. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. In an older home around Grimness, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.
What you get with us
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over

What affects the cost of regrouting
Your quote is based on your job. We take into account:
- The number and length of the joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Any working-time requirements on site
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know what needs doing and where, and roughly how big it is. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we will take it from there.
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom floors
If floor grout keeps cracking, the floor may be moving. We check the tiles before regrouting.
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
Looking after it afterwards
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
Check the corner silicone now and then. Corners flex, so it’s usually the first thing to need attention, long before the grout does.
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.
Landlord and commercial work in Grimness
Letting agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the address, the job and how access works and we’ll quote.
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
