- Shower grout that has worn away
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
Common problems we fix in Midmar
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it with repeated use, until the joints are rough and low.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
For jobs in and around Midmar, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.
What your quote should include
- What the cure time is
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether VAT is included
About our regrouting in Midmar
Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. The joints are then vacuumed, regrouted and cleaned off, with silicone renewed in the corners. If you have floor grout that has worn and darkened and grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned, 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. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
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.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Regrouting around Midmar
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
Around Midmar, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Keep the fan on after showering
Use a gentle cleaner on the grout with a soft brush. Keep harsh bleach and acid limescale removers away from it, as they can break grout down.
Grout that stays dark after cleaning is starting to fail. Regrouting at this stage is straightforward, before the joints open up.
Leave it or put it right?
Regrouting will not help where tiles have come away. We point that out first so you know what’s involved. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

How it works
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. 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. Outdoor work around Midmar depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- Fresh grout goes into the joints and the tile faces are wiped clean.
- We reseal the internal corners and edges with silicone.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear items away from the joints we are working on
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

What affects the cost of regrouting
Every job gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The type of sealant required
- How many areas need sealing
- Any working-time requirements on site
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Roughly how big the job is
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Quotes start with a quick conversation. Describe the problem, the location and the size of the job, and we’ll explain how we’d tackle it. When it suits you, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
FAQs for Midmar
Do you cover smaller places like Midmar?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Is regrouting in Midmar guaranteed?
All our work, in Midmar and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured for every job we do.
How long should I wait before showering?
The wait depends on the materials and how warm the room is. We will tell you exactly how long when the job is done.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes. With the old grout removed, the new colour fills the whole joint rather than sitting on top.
Do you do commercial work?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we are fully insured.
