Common questions in Sandyhills
Is Sandyhills in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Sandyhills is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Can a failed shower seal in a tenement flat in Sandyhills leak into the flat below?
It can. Tenement floors are normally timber, and water from a failed seal can find its way down to the flat below. It’s worth sorting sealant and grout before it gets that far.
What guarantee comes with the work?
You get our 12-month guarantee on every job, and we’re fully insured.
Do you regrout part of a bathroom, like the shower?
We can. We’ll check the other tiled areas as well and tell you if anything else needs attention.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we cover South East England, London and all of Scotland.
How soon can the shower be used after regrouting?
We give you a time before we leave. It depends on the grout and the sealant used so please stick to it.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Your quote will say how long we expect yours to take.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Sandyhills
Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks, or the other way round. Tell us what you have in mind when you ask for a quote. If you have grout that makes sound tiles look old and floor grout that has worn and darkened, we can help, on bathroom wall tiles, bathroom floors and shower walls alike.
Sandyhills is in one of Scotland’s four big cities, where many tenement bathrooms were fitted into rooms that weren’t built for them. Space is tight and ventilation can be poor, which is hard on sealant and grout.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we’ll put it right.

Should I try it myself first?
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
When to call us in Sandyhills
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. They need flexible sealant, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
If you look after a building such as Eastbank Academy, 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.

Regrouting around Sandyhills
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of 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. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
For landlords with property near Shettleston station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so the work can be planned room by room around your bookings where we can. We’ve worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Use gentle cleaners on grout
- Look at the sealant in the corners now and then
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Each shower drives water into the open joints, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
What we do, step by step
Every visit runs the same way: we check the joints, mask and protect the surrounding surfaces, do the work and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a city area like Sandyhills, parking may be by permit or pay-and-display, so tell us what’s nearby. For flats, mention the door entry system and any shared-stair arrangements.

- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.

- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Getting ready for the visit

Leave it or put it right?
New grout smeared over the old does not bond well. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away, taking any repair with it. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. For landlords in Sandyhills, damp and leaks can be a Repairing Standard issue, so failed sealant is best replaced before it becomes a complaint.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, whether mould needs treating, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.
