About our regrouting in Newtongrange
When grout stays dark however much you clean it, the discolouration has usually soaked into the grout. Replacing it is the lasting answer, and it’s a chance to change the colour too. If you are dealing with discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and cracked or crumbling grout lines, we can help, whatever the surface.
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.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

When something else is needed
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Tiles that are chipped or split
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- A leaking wet room membrane

What we are called out for in Newtongrange
Most grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down, especially in a shower that’s used every day.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
For an older house near a landmark such as Newtongrange Parish Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Which colour the sealant will be
- How long the guarantee is
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Check the corner silicone every few months
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and keep the room ventilated.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
Questions from Newtongrange
Is Newtongrange in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Newtongrange is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Newtongrange station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as householders, and several properties can be quoted together. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
What information do you need?
A short description and the location. We’ll ask anything else we need to know.
Is resealing included with regrouting?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and include it in your quote.
What do you put in the joint?
The product depends on the job: anti-fungal sanitary silicone in wet areas, and other sealants where joints move or face the weather. Brands we use include Arbo and Everbuild.
What guarantee comes with the work?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee.
Where are you based?
We’re based in Crawley, West Sussex, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
How long should I wait before showering?
It varies with the products and the room. We will tell you exactly how long at the end of the visit.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Regrouting in Newtongrange: local notes
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. In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
If you look after a building such as Newbattle Community High School, washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes. Letting a property close to Newtongrange station? Then stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower walls
The grout in a shower takes the brunt of the water. We rake it out and regrout and renew the silicone at the edges.
Wet rooms
Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.

Once we are on site, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Outdoor work around Newtongrange depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
