For a place like Riccarton, the job is the same as anywhere: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.

Do you need regrouting in Riccarton?
Strong cleaning products and hard scrubbing slowly erode grout. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, until the joints are rough and low.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
Around Riccarton, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the sealant suits the joint
- How long the guarantee is
- Whether they’re fully insured

Leave it or put it right?
Once grout cracks, water can get behind the tiling. Leave it, and the adhesive or the wall behind can suffer, and then you’re looking at retiling. Sorting it early keeps the job simple. Around Riccarton, water from a failed joint in an older stone home can soak into timber and plaster, which is a far bigger job than the sealant.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom floors
Floor grout takes foot traffic as well as water. It wears and darkens over time.
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Gaps here let water get behind the tiling.
What affects the quote in Riccarton
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We take into account:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- Whether the work is at height
- The size of the job
- Working hours on commercial sites
A few things move the cost up or down: the old material and how easily it comes out, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
What to tell us for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
- Roughly how big the job is
For regrouting in Riccarton, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk. Tell us what the problem is and where, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
Common questions in Riccarton
I let a flat near Edinburgh Park station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. You can drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details for a clear quote.
Is Riccarton within the area you cover?
Yes, Riccarton is covered. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. We can plan bigger jobs in stages to suit the site.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Is regrouting a chance to pick a new grout colour?
Yes. With the old grout removed, the new colour fills the whole joint, not just the surface.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes. All of the old material is cut out and the joint cleaned before resealing.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes. We will check the other tiled areas as well and let you know if more needs doing.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Riccarton
Tenement flats are common across Edinburgh, where a failed seal can soon reach the flat below. 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.
Letting a property close to Edinburgh Park station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.

What happens on the day
Most of a good job is in the preparation, and we do not rush it. Joints are cleaned back and dried before anything new goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
