How we quote for regrouting

The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Whether the work is at height
  • The old material and how stubborn it is
  • The amount of work
  • Any mould that needs treating

Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, the access and the products needed, plus any working-time requirements on site. Ask us for a quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Helping us quote

To help us quote quickly, please include:

  • If someone has resealed it before
  • Where the property is
  • The rough size of the job
  • Photos by email, if that’s easy

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.

Regrouting in Inverugie, done properly

Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water has a way in behind the tiling. We rake it out and replace it and renew the silicone at the edges. We’re often asked to deal with a grout colour that no longer suits the room and grout in corners that has cracked, on bathroom floors, shower walls and tiled floors.

In and around a place like Inverugie, homes range from older stone-built properties to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are usually the first signs.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Do you need regrouting in Inverugie?

Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
  • Grout washed out of a shower
  • Cracked grout along the bath or tray
  • Splashback grout that has darkened

Whether the job is in Inverugie itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

What to look for in a quote

  • How long to leave it before use
  • Which colour the sealant will be
  • How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
  • How much experience the applicator has

Looking after it afterwards

A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:

  • Give the walls a quick rinse after use
  • Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
  • Check the corner silicone every few months
  • Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout

Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so it’s usually the first thing to need attention.

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.

Inverugie questions

Can you do regrouting in Inverugie?

Yes, Inverugie is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll give you a clear price.

Will you come out to Inverugie?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Is there any odour?

That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work.

What should I tell you?

Tell us what needs doing and where. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.

Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?

New grout can’t hold loose tiles in place. We flag any loose or hollow tiles before starting, so you can decide what to do.

Are you ARBOMaster approved?

Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Inverugie

In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.

If you manage several properties in or around Inverugie, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant will not do:

  • Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
  • A leaking wet room membrane
  • A floor or wall that keeps moving

If you’re not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Tiled floors
  • Bathroom floors
  • Shower walls
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen splashbacks
  • Bathroom wall tiles

What the job involves on each surface

Shower walls

A shower wall is soaked daily, so its grout takes the most punishment. It’s often the first place grout washes out.

Bathroom floors

Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It wears and darkens over time.

What regrouting looks like in Inverugie

Inverugie 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. 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 doesn’t dry out.
