About our regrouting in Kilmuir
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks or back again. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. We work on wet rooms, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles, and people most often call us about grout that’s cracking and breaking up and grout washed out of a shower.
For a place like Kilmuir, the job is the same as anywhere: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including the tidy-up. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Bathrooms and kitchens in Kilmuir
Kilmuir is within about 1 mile of 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. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
Homes close to Parish Church include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Why act early in Kilmuir
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but the patches often do not match and the old grout carries on failing. Regrouting the whole area gives an even, lasting finish. In an older home around Kilmuir, damp from a failed joint can get into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
Leaving a failed joint generally makes the job bigger, not smaller. If you’re unsure, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

What we are called out for in Kilmuir
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and when they aren’t, water gets in.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
Letting a property close to Invergordon station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
What your quote should include
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How long the guarantee is
- How long to leave it before use
- Whether they’re fully insured
Different surfaces, different methods
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so everything is renewed at once.
Shower walls
Shower walls get wet every day, so its grout takes the most punishment. It’s often the first place grout washes out.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting will not fix it, so it’s worth acting early.

When it isn’t the sealant

- Movement in a stud wall or floor
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
