Quotes for regrouting in Grindiscol

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Which sealant suits the joint
  • The number of rooms or windows
  • The amount of work
  • How easy the joints are to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in contact, it helps to mention:

  • What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Describe what needs sealing and we’ll explain what’s involved and send you a clear quote.

How we handle regrouting in Grindiscol

If you’ve been scrubbing grout that will not come clean, the stain is often in the grout itself. New grout is the fix that lasts and you can pick a different colour while you’re at it. If you have floor grout that won’t come clean and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, we can help, whatever the surface.

Bathrooms in smaller places like Grindiscol work just as hard as those in the cities. Limescale is less of a problem with Scotland’s generally soft water, but mould still takes hold in damp sealant and grout.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Common questions in Grindiscol

Will you come out to Grindiscol?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Is Grindiscol in your area for regrouting?

Yes, Grindiscol is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.

Which products do you use?

Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what we’re using.

Do you remove the old sealant?

Yes, always, and completely. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.

Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?

Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better, while lighter grout brightens a room.

Do you have insurance?

Yes, we are fully insured.

Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?

We can. We will look at the rest of the room too and let you know if more needs doing.

Landlord and commercial work in Grindiscol

Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.

Aftercare tips

Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
  • Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
  • Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower

Have any tile that moves checked right away. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and lets water in.

Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward, before the joints open up.

How the visit works

Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. In total, it usually takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Outdoor work around Grindiscol depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.

  1. First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
  2. We remove the old grout carefully.
  3. The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Before we arrive

  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
  • Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks

Regrouting around Grindiscol

Grindiscol is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.

For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Anderson High School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For an older house near a landmark such as Bressay Kirk, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Can I do it myself?

If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is.

What the job involves on each surface

Corners and edges

Where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop, the joint is sealed. Grout there would crack.

Bathroom wall tiles

Walls outside the shower get less water but grout there still discolours. New grout freshens them up.
