Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach 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 lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
About our regrouting in Leswalt
We check the tiles before any grout comes out. Loose or hollow tiles are pointed out first, since new grout can’t fix a problem underneath. Where the tiles are sound, regrouting gives the area a new lease of life. We work on bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and kitchen splashbacks, and people most often call us about grout that makes sound tiles look old and dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor.
For a place like Leswalt, 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. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Leswalt and across Dumfries and Galloway.

About regrouting
Regrouting in Leswalt: local notes
Leswalt is close to the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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.
Homes close to Leswalt Parish Church include some older properties, and bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
Leswalt is about 3 miles north-west of Stranraer, in Dumfries and Galloway. For regrouting in and around Leswalt, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for a quick quote.

Landmarks near Leswalt
The closest station to Leswalt is Stranraer station, roughly 3.1 miles south-east. Well-known places in the area include Stranraer Museum (3.2 miles south-east) and Galloway Community Hospital (3.6 miles south-east). The countryside around Leswalt includes Black Loch.
Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. We recommend:
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Before we leave, you will know when the shower can be used. Stick to that time, and avoid scrubbing the new grout hard for the first few days.
Leaving failed grout can mean tiles come loose. By then, new grout alone isn’t enough, so it’s worth acting early.

What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?

What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom wall tiles
Whole bathroom walls can be regrouted in one visit or more, depending on size. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
Do you need regrouting in Leswalt?
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, and damp grout is where mould grows. When black spots keep returning, the mould has generally got into the grout.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
Letting a property close to Stranraer station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
