How we handle regrouting in Partickhill
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. Common call-outs are for discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, across shower walls, wet rooms and bathroom floors.
Stone-built tenements are part of every Scottish city, alongside suburban houses and modern blocks. With flats above and below, a leak from a tired seal can reach the flat underneath, and that’s as true in Partickhill as anywhere in the city.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.

Partickhill: your questions answered
Do you work for hotels and guest houses in Partickhill?
Yes, we work for hotels as well as homes and businesses. A room-by-room programme keeps most rooms in use while the work goes on.
I’m in a tenement in Partickhill. Could worn sealant affect the flat downstairs?
Yes, it can. In a tenement, water that gets past failed sealant or cracked grout can run under the bath or tray and through to the ceiling below, and then the repair involves your neighbours too. It’s worth sorting sealant and grout before it gets that far.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
If tiles are loose, something behind them has usually failed. Regrouting alone is not the answer and we’ll say so before going ahead.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, West Sussex, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so both are renewed and it’s all in the quote.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. We’ll look at the rest of the room too and tell you if anything else needs attention.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little: the area around the joints is protected first, and we tidy up before we go.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. We are an ARBOMaster approved applicator.

Common problems we fix in Partickhill
Grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.
The most common problems we see are:
- Grout stained black or orange that won’t clean
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Crumbling grout between the tiles

- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
A little care helps the new joints last. We recommend:
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Wipe or squeegee the shower walls
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
Wipe the tiles down after a shower stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Once grout cracks, it tends to get worse. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen, so regrouting early can save a retile.

Rented homes near Partick station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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.
Why act early in Partickhill
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but the patches often don’t match, and the old grout keeps failing around them. Regrouting the whole area gives an even, lasting finish. Private landlords in Partickhill must meet the Repairing Standard, and damp or leaks can fall short of it, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.
