How we handle regrouting in Holywood
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, with silicone renewed in the corners. Typical jobs include cracked or crumbling grout lines and discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles, on wet rooms, shower walls and bathroom floors.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
Every job is covered by our one-year guarantee.

There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Holywood. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
Managing a site like Maxwelltown High School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.

What we’re called out for in Holywood
Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble, especially in a shower that’s used every day.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
If you let a flat or house near Dumfries station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.
Before booking anyone
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- When the joint can take water or movement
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How the colour is chosen
What sealant work can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
If you’re not sure, just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.

The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room from start to finish. Around Holywood, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Advice
Common questions in Holywood
Do you work in hotels near Holywood?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
I let a flat near Dumfries station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address or postcode, what’s wrong and any access issues. Then drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. A darker grout hides marks better, while lighter grout brightens a room.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
We usually do. Fresh grout next to old, mouldy silicone would look odd and could still leak.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
Our 12-month guarantee applies to all our work, and we are fully insured.
Should I try it myself first?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Why it’s worth doing now in Holywood
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They do not fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. Raking out and regrouting replaces the grout itself. In a place like Holywood, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
