Regrouting for homes and businesses in Kirktonhill
Before we start, the tiles are checked. If any tiles are loose or sound hollow, we tell you, because regrouting will not fix what’s behind them. With sound tiles, regrouting is a tidy, lasting improvement. If you are dealing with greasy, stained grout behind the hob and floor grout that won’t come clean, we can put it right.
Being further from a city does not change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
- Don’t ignore a tile that feels loose
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Run the extractor fan or open a window so the grout dries between uses.
Cracked grout does not stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What else we do in Kirktonhill
The process
Once we are on site, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move anything stored near the joints

Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
Wet rooms
Both the grout and the silicone in a wet room matter. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.

Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting won’t help where tiles have come away. We will tell you before any work starts so you know what’s involved. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. Around Kirktonhill, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster.
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’re set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Regrouting around Kirktonhill
Kirktonhill 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. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
Schools such as Keil School are buildings too, and we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. Rented homes near Dalreoch station change hands often, and stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right. In the older streets around St Serfs Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

Kirktonhill questions

Do you cover Kirktonhill for regrouting?
Yes, Kirktonhill is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and you’ll get one quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee, and we’re fully insured.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Flexible sealant. Grout is for the joints between tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it will not last. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
How long should I wait before showering?
We will tell you on the day. The wait depends on the products and conditions so please stick to it.
