- Old grout in a dated colour
Regrouting in Sinclairston, done properly
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Whatever the size, the method stays the same. We work on bathroom floors, shower walls and bathroom wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned and grout that’s cracking and breaking up.
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.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Use a soft brush rather than a wire one
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
Leave the area unused for as long as we advise, so it can harden properly. From then on, a quick rinse after showering helps and let the room air.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left for a few years, they can become a leak so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
What happens on the day
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If anything is different, we explain it before carrying on. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Around Sinclairston, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- The old grout is removed to an even depth.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints

About regrouting
What we are called out for in Sinclairston
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and when they are not, water gets in.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Shower grout that has worn away
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
Around Sinclairston, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Failed sealant is one of the commonest items on a check-out report, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.
Regrouting around Sinclairston
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.
Whether the job is in Sinclairston itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Leave it or put it right?
Cracked grout lets water behind the tiles. Left alone, that water can loosen tiles or damage the wall, which turns a regrout into a retile. Dealing with it now keeps it small. 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.
The cost reflects the work involved, not a rough estimate. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

How much does regrouting cost in Sinclairston?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how much there is, what’s there now, how we reach it and what it needs. You will get a clear quote before work begins.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Just list everything you need and we’ll quote it together.
Can you regrout just the shower?
Yes. A lot of our jobs are only the shower, or the area where the grout has gone.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area.
Is there any odour?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
Surface by surface
Corners and edges
Corners flex as the building moves, so they get silicone, not grout.
Bathroom wall tiles
Grout by the basin and bath tends to mark first. We can regroute just those areas or the whole wall.
