Your questions about regrouting in Skelmorlie
Do you cover smaller places like Skelmorlie?
Yes. Skelmorlie is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Wemyss Bay station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.
Does someone need to be in?
For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in those joints cracks as the building moves.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Should I try DIY first?
It depends on the job. High-level, external movement and fire-rated joints are professional jobs, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and it traps any mould or water underneath. It all has to come out first.
About our regrouting in Skelmorlie
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealant is what goes along the bath, tray or worktop. When grout cracks or washes out, water has a way in behind the tiling. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in and renew the silicone at the edges. If you’re dealing with dirty, worn grout on a tiled floor and good tiles let down by tired grout, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
A bathroom in a place like Skelmorlie 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.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Hotels need rooms back in use, so the work can be planned room by room. We have worked in hotels as well as homes and businesses.
From a single let to a portfolio, the work is the same standard: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In smaller Scottish places, parking is generally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work.
- We check the tiles are sound and flag any that are loose or hollow.
- Old grout is raked out to a consistent depth without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- Mention any tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on

Advice
What else we do in Skelmorlie
Leave it or put it right?
Cleaning products may brighten grout for a time, but mould that has got into grout generally comes back. New grout, with silicone in the corners, deals with the cause. In a place like Skelmorlie, small leaks are easy to put off, but water behind a failed seal does the most damage when nobody’s watching.
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What the job involves on each surface
Bathroom floors
Grout on a floor is walked on as well as wetted. It wears and darkens over time.
Wet rooms
In a wet room, the whole floor gets wet, so sound grout really matters. We check the tiles first.
Can I do it myself?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and does not move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.

Do you need regrouting in Skelmorlie?
Grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Given time, it discolours and begins to break down and showers that get daily use suffer most.
Look out for any of the following:
- Crumbling grout between the tiles
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Floor grout that has worn and darkened

What regrouting looks like in Skelmorlie
Skelmorlie is within about 1 mile 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. In Scotland, private landlords have to 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.
If you live in an older home near Skelmorlie Parish Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
