Shiskine Regrouting
Professional regrouting in and around Shiskine, with old sealant always removed completely and a 12-month guarantee.
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- Grout in corners that has cracked
- Grout that’s cracking and breaking up
Regrouting for homes and businesses in Shiskine
Our applicators rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care not to chip the tile edges. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, and the corners get fresh silicone. If you are dealing with gaps where the shower grout has gone and grout that’s cracking and breaking up, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
A bathroom in a place like Shiskine gets the same daily wear as one in a city flat. Limescale is less of a problem with Scotland’s generally soft water, but mould still takes hold in damp sealant and grout.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Different surfaces, different methods
Bathroom floors
Regrouting a floor brightens the whole room. Floor-to-wall and bath joints are sealed, not grouted.
Wet rooms
Wet room grout and sealant need to be in good order. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Shiskine
Shiskine is within about 2 miles of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, and sealant and grout that work that hard wear out sooner. 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.
Around Shiskine, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Around Shiskine
The countryside around Shiskine includes Àrd Bheinn and Loch Iorsa.
DIY versus a professional finish
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, then guaranteed for a year.
Too much sealant is as bad as too little. A heavy bead looks messy and copes badly with movement, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.

What else we do in Shiskine
For landlords and businesses
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
How the visit works
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Show us the job and we will take it from there. The work itself takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the tidy-up. Outside jobs in Shiskine need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Work indoors isn’t affected.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- Dust and debris are vacuumed out of every joint.
- New grout is worked into the joints and cleaned off the tile faces.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Move anything stored near the joints
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Keeping the joints in good condition
A little care helps the new joints last. Our advice:
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Wipe water off the walls when you’re done
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so it’s normally the first thing to need attention.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
Signs you need regrouting in Shiskine
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks as the bath or tray moves. Those joints should be silicone, and if they’re grouted, a crack soon lets water in.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Grout washed out of a shower
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Grout in corners that has cracked
For an older house near a landmark such as St Molios Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.
What your quote should include
