About our regrouting in Kirkton of Tough
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, or just the area that has failed. Either way, tiled areas in Kirkton of Tough are handled the same careful way. We work on wet rooms, tiled floors and shower walls, and the jobs we see most are dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and grout that’s cracking and breaking up.
Being further from a city doesn’t change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
Our work is backed for twelve months, in Kirkton of Tough and everywhere else we cover.

Kirkton of Tough: your questions answered
Is regrouting in Kirkton of Tough guaranteed?
All our work, in Kirkton of Tough and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Is Kirkton of Tough in your area for regrouting?

Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We’re ARBOMaster approved, the scheme for applicators of Arbo sealants.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They flex and grout can’t take that movement.
How the visit works
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Outdoor work around Kirkton of Tough depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- 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.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Before we arrive

Also in Kirkton of Tough
Can I do it myself?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We cut it out and start again.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window to help it dry out.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it so early action pays.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Kirkton of Tough
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. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
If you live in an older home near Tough Parish Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
