DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
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.

What else we do in Pitscottie
How the visit works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Outside jobs in Pitscottie need a dry day, because sealant will not bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors is not affected.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any tricky access
How to get a quote
Getting a quote is simple: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll take it from there.
Advice
Signs you need regrouting in Pitscottie
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and when they aren’t, water gets in.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Floor grout that won’t come clean
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
Rented homes near Cupar station change hands often, and clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

Why it’s worth doing now in Pitscottie
It’s tempting to fill a few cracks yourself, but patched grout rarely matches the rest and the old grout carries on failing. Doing the full area gives you one colour and sound joints throughout. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
What you pay reflects the work, not a rough estimate. That’s why we ask about the job first and agree the price before starting.

For landlords and businesses
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.
What regrouting looks like in Pitscottie
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.

Pitscottie questions
Do you cover smaller places like Pitscottie?
Yes, Pitscottie is covered. We work across all of Scotland, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
I let a flat near Cupar station. Can you help?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear quote.
Can you change the grout colour?
Yes, regrouting is the time to do it. Mention the colour you have in mind when you drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Will there be a smell?
Sometimes, a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Do you work for hotels and businesses?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses, and we’re fully insured.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Silicone. Grout belongs between the tiles, while corners and edges need a joint that can move.
Does someone need to be in?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Do not ignore a tile that feels loose
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Do not use strong acidic cleaners on grout
Before we leave, you’ll know when the shower can be used. Please follow it, and go gently on the grout at first.
Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
