Regrouting in Inverness, done properly
A grout colour change can freshen a room without retiling. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. We work on shower walls, bathroom wall tiles and tiled floors, and common reasons people get in touch are discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and greasy, stained grout behind the hob.
Scottish water is generally soft, so homes in a town like Inverness see less limescale than many parts of England. Mould is a different story: a steamy bathroom still turns sealant and grout black.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Clean with a soft brush, not anything metal
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.
Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen, so regrouting early can save a retile.
Other services in Inverness
Signs you need regrouting in Inverness
When tiles or the wall behind them move, the grout cracks. That can be a loose tile, a flexing floor or a stud wall, so we check the tiles before we start.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout stained black or orange that will not clean
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
Managing a site like Inverness High School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Common questions in Inverness
Do you cover Inverness for regrouting?
Yes, Inverness is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you work in hotels near Inverness?
Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new bead soon lifts. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
What information do you need?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Inverness homes and their sealant
Inverness 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. There are hotels and other places to stay in and around Inverness. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
For landlords with property near Inverness station, a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
Inverness (Gaelic: Inbhir Nis) is in Highland. Inverness gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee. Our Highland coverage runs to 253 places, Inverness among them.
Jobs for regrouting in IV2, IV3 and IV1 works the same way as everywhere else we cover. We cover properties on High Street, Market Brae and Falcon Square and the roads around them. Inverness is on the A9 and A82, which makes it straightforward to reach with everything needed for regrouting. Nearby, we also carry out regrouting in Ballifeary (1 mile west), Crown (1 mile north-east), Hilton (1 mile south-east), Millburn (1 mile north-east) and Lochardil (1 mile south). We also work in nearby towns such as Nairn (15 miles north-east), Cradlehall (3 miles east), Dingwall (12 miles north-west), Muir of Ord (9 miles west), Fortrose (8 miles north-east) and Conon Bridge (10 miles north-west). Inverness is among the bigger towns we cover in Highland. For island and remote addresses, the job takes a little more planning, so let us know when you get in touch.

DIY versus a professional finish
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How the job changes by surface
Shower walls
A shower wall is soaked daily, so its grout takes the most punishment. It normally fails first.
Bathroom floors
Cracked floor grout can point to movement underneath. We check the tiles before regrouting.
What happens if it’s left?
Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We will tell you before we start, so you can decide what to do. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. In flats with a shared stair in Inverness, a leak from a failed seal can affect the flat below too, and that’s much harder to put right.
There are no prices on our website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Why us?
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- 180+ five-star Google reviews
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
Take a look at what affects the cost and what customers say.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. After that, the work takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. In a Scottish town like Inverness, parking is generally straightforward, though older centres can be tighter. If you’re in a flat with a shared stair or a door entry system, let us know when you book.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- The old grout comes out to a consistent depth, without damaging the tiles.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
