Regrouting in Lambhill, done properly
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they need flexible silicone instead. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. Common call-outs are for kitchen splashback grout stained by grease and shower grout that has worn away, on tiled floors, shower walls and kitchen splashbacks.
Scotland’s cities have a lot of flats, from sandstone or granite tenements to modern blocks, as well as houses in the suburbs. Scottish water is generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas, but mould still grows into sealant and grout in a steamy bathroom.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

How the job changes by surface
Corners and edges
Edges are resealed while we are there, 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.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Lambhill, several properties can be quoted together. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and photos by email help.
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report. Several properties can be quoted together.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Lambhill
Most grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble, especially in a shower that is used every day.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
Managing a site like John Paul Academy? Then we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

Advice
Lambhill: your questions answered
Could a leaking bath seal in my Lambhill flat reach the neighbours below?
Yes, it can. In a tenement, water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and through to the ceiling below, and then the repair involves your neighbours too. It’s worth sorting sealant and grout before it gets that far.
Do you work in hotels near Lambhill?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
How much does regrouting cost in Lambhill?
Every job is different, so each one gets its own quote. For a quick quote, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a short description of the job.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
New grout cannot hold loose tiles in place. We check the tiles first and tell you if any are loose or hollow so you know where you stand.
Can I do it myself?
Sometimes. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes. It’s the ideal time to change it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
Regrouting around Lambhill
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies. 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.
If you let a flat or house near Possilpark & Parkhouse station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
