Why deal with it now?
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but patched grout rarely matches the rest, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. In an older home around Hayhill, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Combining jobs into one visit generally makes better use of the time than several visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

How we handle regrouting in Hayhill
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. Common call-outs are for discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and old grout in a dated colour, on tiled floors, wet rooms and bathroom floors.
In and around a place like Hayhill, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

How the visit works
There’s no need to move everything out before we come, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area for a typical job. Somewhere like Hayhill may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Preparing for the visit
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Clear the area around the work
How to get a quote

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and let the room air.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
What regrouting looks like in Hayhill
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
Whether the job is in Hayhill itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish. In and around Hayhill, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Can I do it myself?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
A DIY attempt does not rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
What the job involves on each surface
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so its grout takes the most punishment. It generally fails first.
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. Floor-to-wall and bath joints are sealed, not grouted.
