Regrouting for homes and businesses in Old Dailly
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so nothing is ripped out. We work on bathroom wall tiles, tiled floors and shower walls, and the jobs we see most are greasy, stained grout behind the hob and corners filled with grout instead of silicone.
A bathroom in a place like Old Dailly gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Why act early in Old Dailly
Grout pens and paint-on colourants only cover the surface. They will not fill gaps or keep water out and stains often come back through. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.

Regrouting in Old Dailly: local notes
Old Dailly is within about 3 miles of 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. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Girvan Academy, we reseal washrooms and kitchens in schools and businesses as well as homes. For landlords with property near Girvan station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.
Old Dailly is about 15 miles south-west of Ayr, in South Ayrshire.

Questions from Old Dailly
Do you work for landlords with property near Girvan station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Is Old Dailly in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Old Dailly is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we will send you a clear quote.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator, the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants.
How long does regrouting take?
Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the preparation. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. Hotels, offices and other businesses use us and we’re fully insured.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need access to the joints, so we’ll agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that normally means someone at home.
How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
Give the new grout the time we tell you before using the shower, so it can harden properly. After that, rinse the tiles after showering and keep the room ventilated.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. Around Old Dailly, distance and access matter more than parking. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- 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.
- The corners and edges get new silicone, because grout there would crack.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear the area around the work
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Related advice
What we are called out for in Old Dailly
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, giving mould a place to grow. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
Homes close to Old Dailly Parish Church include some older properties, and older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
What your quote should include
- How hidden problems are handled
- Is the old sealant removed completely?
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How much experience the applicator has
How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It can’t fix waterproofing below the tiles.
Bathroom wall tiles
We can regroute all the walls in a bathroom, depending on size. It’s a good time to change the grout colour.

Should I try it myself first?
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.
If you are set on DIY, put the effort into preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.
