About our regrouting in Merrylee
We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, or just the area that has failed. Whatever the size, the method stays the same. If you have grout washed out of a shower and stained grout that cleaning won’t shift, we can help, on shower walls, bathroom floors and bathroom wall tiles alike.
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.
Big or small, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee in Merrylee and across Glasgow.

Can I do it myself?
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
When something else is needed
Sealant isn’t the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Cracked or broken tiles
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.

When to call us in Merrylee
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and when they aren’t, water gets in.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Splashback grout that has darkened
Managing a site like Hillpark Secondary School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Why it’s worth doing now in Merrylee
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and the room is out of use for longer. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. Wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint on the outside of a city building, and in a tall building in Merrylee, damp can travel a long way before it shows.
Doing several joints on one visit is normally more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why book with us
- An ARBOMaster approved applicator
- Tidy, careful work
- Any old sealant cut out fully, not covered over
- Anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas
How the visit works
When we arrive, we start by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. We protect the surfaces around the joints before we start. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. In a city area like Merrylee, parking may be by permit or pay-and-display, so tell us what’s nearby. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.
- 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.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Before we arrive
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Clear the area around the work
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Looking after new joints is easy:
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Skip wire brushes and scourers
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
- Rinse the tiles after showering
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it cures fully. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and let the room air.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward while the tiles are still sound.
What regrouting looks like in Merrylee
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. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Rented homes near Giffnock station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Merrylee questions
I’m in a tenement in Merrylee. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?
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.
Is Merrylee in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Merrylee is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
We are based in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
All our work carries a 12-month guarantee, and we are fully insured.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
Before we leave, we’ll tell you how long to wait. Both the grout and the silicone need time to cure before they get wet.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Silicone. Grout belongs between the tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the product. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Normally, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
How the job changes by surface
Corners and edges
The joint between tiles and a bath, tray or worktop gets silicone. Grout in that joint wouldn’t last.
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so sound grout really matters. We check for loose tiles before starting.
