Why act early in St Marys
Regrouting keeps the tiles you already have. Retiling is a much bigger job: stripping, making good, new tiles and new grout, and often a few days without a shower. When the tiles are fine, it’s the sensible first step. In a Scottish city tenement, failed sealant affects more than one flat: water can reach the flat below, and gaps in shared walls or fire-stopping affect the whole stair.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why choose Mr Mastic in St Marys

Regrouting in St Marys
A bathroom with good tiles can still look worn if the grout has gone. Regrouting replaces the grout and keeps the tiles you have, so there’s no stripping out and no new tiles to choose. Common call-outs are for discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles and grout washed out of a shower, on bathroom wall tiles, shower walls and wet rooms.
In Scotland’s cities, including the area around St Marys, many older flats had their bathrooms added into small rooms later on. Rooms like that are often small and slow to dry out, which is hard on sealant and grout.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right with it, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk.

FAQs for St Marys
Is St Marys in your area for regrouting?
Yes, St Marys is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Invergowrie station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for landlords and letting agents. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and a few details, and we’ll give you a fixed price before work begins.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, it will not last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Do you guarantee regrouting?
There’s a 12-month guarantee on every job, including regrouting.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We’re an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
What sealant do you use?
The product depends on the job: sanitary silicone where it gets wet, and sealants suited to movement or weather elsewhere. We use products from Arbo and Everbuild.
How to look after the new joints
Looking after new joints is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the walls a quick rinse after use
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Keep the fan on after showering
We’ll tell you when the area can be used again. Stick to that time, and go gently on the grout at first.
Cracked grout doesn’t stay cracked for long. Water gets in behind and the tiles can start to loosen and early regrouting can avoid a much bigger job.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly.
How it works
We bring everything the job needs with us. Once we have agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. In a Scottish city, a lot of jobs are in tenement flats, up a common stair from a shared close. For a job in St Marys, tell us the floor, how the door entry system works and where we can park nearby.
- We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.

Regrouting in St Marys: local notes
St Marys is close to the coast. Coastal homes, holiday lets and guest houses can see heavy bathroom use in busy months, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and meet the Repairing Standard, which covers keeping fixtures and fittings in a reasonable state of repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies.
Letting a property close to Invergowrie station? Then clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again. Schools such as Lawside Academy are buildings too, and its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.
