Motherwell Regrouting
Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Motherwell. Fully insured, ARBOMaster approved and guaranteed for a year.
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
Regrouting in Motherwell
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, and the corners get fresh silicone. If you have dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, we can help.
Scottish water is generally soft, so homes in a town like Motherwell see less limescale than many parts of England. Mould is a different story: a steamy bathroom still turns sealant and grout black.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right with it, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

What the job involves on each surface
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so the whole area is finished together.
Kitchen splashbacks
Grout behind the hob and sink works hard. We regroute and reseal the worktop joint.
Regrouting in Motherwell: local notes
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. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that does not dry out.
In the older streets around Dalziel High Parish Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant. For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Braidhurst High School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.

How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so it’s normally the first thing to need attention.
Tiles can come away if failed grout is left. Once that happens, regrouting won’t fix it so early action pays.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different trade:
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- Loose tiles, which need refixing first
If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will say what we think.

Landlord and commercial work in Motherwell
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
How it works
We keep the work tidy and contained to the joints we are treating. The job normally takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. A visit in Motherwell needs three things planned: access, parking and where the work is. Outdoor jobs need a dry day, so they can move if the weather turns.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

What else we do in Motherwell
When to call us in Motherwell
Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.
The most common problems we see are:
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Floor grout that will not come clean
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
Letting a property close to Motherwell station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
What your quote should include
- How much experience the applicator has
- Whether they seal over old material or remove it
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether VAT is included
Should I try it myself first?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
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.
Motherwell questions
Is there a guarantee on regrouting in Motherwell?
All our work, in Motherwell and everywhere else, comes with a 12-month guarantee. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you work for landlords with property near Motherwell station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners, and several properties can go on one quote. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Most of the time, yes. Grout fills tile gaps and sealant handles the moving joints, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Silicone. Grout is for the joints between tiles and moving joints need sealant.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
Should I try DIY first?
Sometimes. Preparation is everything: all the old sealant out, and a clean, dry joint. We can always put it right if it fails.
Will there be a smell?
Some sealants have a smell while they cure. Opening a window helps.
