Regrouting in Scatsta, done properly
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but corners and edges move, so they need flexible silicone instead. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. If you’re dealing with dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, we can put it right.
Across smaller places in Scotland, homes range from stone and harled cottages to newer houses. Where a building moves, cracked grout and split sealant are usually the first signs.
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, whatever its size.

Questions from Scatsta
Can you do regrouting in Scatsta?
Yes. Our work covers the whole of Scotland, and Scatsta is part of that. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and let us know what needs doing.
Is Scatsta within the area you cover?
Yes. Scatsta is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across all of Scotland, including the islands, where work is planned around ferry crossings. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Corners get silicone, not grout. They move slightly and grout cannot take that movement.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job.
Will the sealant be renewed as well as the grout?
Yes, in most cases. New grout beside old sealant wouldn’t look right and could still leak.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
When can I use the shower again?
Before we leave, we’ll tell you how long to wait. The grout and sealant both need to cure before they get wet.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. We cut out all the old sealant and clean the joint.
Why it’s worth doing now in Scatsta
Grouting over old grout rarely lasts. It sits thinly on top and soon flakes away. Raking out to a consistent depth gives the new grout something to hold. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Scatsta
Scatsta 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. Work on the islands has to be planned around ferry crossings and the weather, so the more notice, the better.
Around Scatsta, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it. For jobs in and around Scatsta, choosing the right material for each joint is as important as a tidy finish.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone won’t bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What affects the quote in Scatsta
For a quick quote, just ask. What matters most is:
- Whether the work is at height
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Working hours on commercial sites
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You’ll have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- How we’d reach the joints
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- If someone has resealed it before
A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
What the job involves on each surface
Wet rooms
New grout in a wet room keeps the surface sound. It can’t fix waterproofing below the tiles.
Bathroom floors
New floor grout makes a big difference to how a bathroom looks. The edges where floor meets wall or bath get silicone.
