Honest limits
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’ll tell you before any work starts. Sealant won’t put right:
- Movement in a stud wall or floor
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- A leaking wet room membrane
If in doubt, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Regrouting in Milton of Leys
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. It can be a full room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Milton of Leys are handled the same careful way. If you have discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
A bathroom in a place like Milton of Leys gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Limescale is less of a problem with Scotland’s generally soft water, but mould still takes hold in damp sealant and grout.
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.

Can I do it myself?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
Landlord and commercial work in Milton of Leys
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.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
Common problems we fix in Milton of Leys
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.
Look out for these signs:
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
Managing a site like Inverness Royal Academy? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long to leave it before use
- How the colour is chosen
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
How the visit works
Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you. The work normally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, depending on how much there is to do. For a place like Milton of Leys, longer drives are planned in advance. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Clear the area around the work

- The number of rooms or windows
- The type of sealant required
- Mould in or behind the old joints
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.

Questions from Milton of Leys
Can you do regrouting in Milton of Leys?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Milton of Leys is part of that. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Do you work for landlords with property near Inverness station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new joint bonds to clean surfaces.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
How long does regrouting take?
A typical job takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the preparation. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. More than one area can go on one quote.
Can I do it myself?
Some simple jobs can be done by a careful DIYer. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
What if some of my tiles are loose?
New grout can’t 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.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Milton of Leys
In Scotland, private landlords have to 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. 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.
Letting a property close to Inverness station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Why deal with it now?
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. 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.
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.
