About our regrouting in Sandbank
Across Sandbank, we regrout tiled showers, bathrooms and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, and we finish by resealing the edges. We work on tiled floors, kitchen splashbacks and shower walls, and common reasons people get in touch are floor grout that won’t come clean and cracked or crumbling grout lines.
A bathroom in a place like Sandbank 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.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, large or small.

How the job changes by surface
Shower walls
Shower walls are the most common area we regrout. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Bathroom wall tiles
Walls outside the shower get less water but grout there still discolours. New grout freshens them up.
Sandbank: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Gourock station?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, 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.
Do you cover Sandbank for regrouting?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Sandbank is part of that. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Are you ARBOMaster approved?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we’re part of it.
Will it make a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
How long does the job take?
Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area, including preparation and clearing up. We will confirm how long when we quote.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
How much does regrouting cost in Sandbank?
The cost depends on the size of the job, access and how much old sealant has to come out. Call for a quick quote.
How the visit works
When we get to you, we check the joints match what you told us. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Outdoor work around Sandbank depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed
- Clear the area around the work

Related advice
Signs you need regrouting in Sandbank
Harsh cleaners and scrubbing wear grout away. Bleach and acidic limescale removers can attack it over time, leaving the joints sunken and rough.
People normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Greasy, stained grout behind the hob
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
Letting a property close to Gourock station? Then a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.
What your quote should include
- What happens if the job turns out different
- Who turns up on the day
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- How long to leave it before use
What happens if it’s left?
New grout smeared over the old doesn’t bond well. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away, taking any repair with it. Removing the old grout to an even depth lets the new grout key in properly. Around Sandbank, 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.
The cost depends on the amount of work, how hard the old material is to remove and how easy the joints are to reach. We give a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Sandbank homes and their sealant
Sandbank is close to 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. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
If you look after a building such as Dunoon Grammar 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. If you live in an older home near Sandbank Parish Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.

Should I try it myself first?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
