Your questions about regrouting in Kames
Can you do regrouting in Kames?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Kames is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Will you come out to Kames?
Yes, we do. We work across all of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. The journey is planned ahead, so it helps to know about access.
Can new sealant go over the old?
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 work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for householders, landlords, letting agents, businesses and hotels.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
All our work carries a 12-month guarantee.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the product. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little, and any smell fades as they cure.
How do I get a quote for regrouting in Kames?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: its size, the old material, access and the product needed. You will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Kames
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, since new grout can’t fix a problem underneath. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. If you are dealing with gaps where the shower grout has gone and dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor, we can help, on kitchen splashbacks, tiled floors and bathroom floors alike.
A bathroom in a place like Kames gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

What else we do in Kames
Bathrooms and kitchens in Kames
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
If you live in an older home near Muirkirk Old Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first. In and around Kames, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s easy to sort out between tenants. We can quote for more than one property at once.
What happens on the day
There’s no need to move everything out, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area in most cases. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Preparing for the visit

- Tell us if parking is tricky
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

Advice
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Should I try it myself first?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
How the job changes by surface
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so the whole area is finished together.
Kitchen splashbacks
Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We regroute and reseal the worktop joint.
What affects the quote in Kames
For a quick quote, just ask. The main things that affect it are:
- Working hours on commercial sites
- How many areas need sealing
- Access and height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Leaving a failed joint normally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.
