Regrouting in New Winton
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in, then reseal the corners and edges. If you have floor grout that has worn and darkened and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, we can help, on tiled floors, wet rooms and shower walls alike.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Older buildings can move a little, and that shows first in cracked grout and split sealant.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Why it’s worth doing now in New Winton
New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. A thin skin on top tends to break off, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. In a place like New Winton, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you an honest view and a quote.

How to look after the new joints
Once the sealant has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Stick to mild products for cleaning grout
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
Check the corner silicone now and then. It’s the part that moves, so it’s normally the first thing to need attention.
Grout that is washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints and it can end up in the wall or the ceiling below.
What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. In total, it normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Outdoor work around New Winton depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Work indoors is not affected.
- First, we check for loose or hollow tiles and point out any we find.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints and clean out the dust.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles

What else we do in New Winton
Should I try it myself first?
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, then guaranteed for a year.
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.
Regrouting around New Winton
New Winton is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
If you look after a building such as Ross High School, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes.
