Regrouting for Steinis homes and businesses

What we do, step by step

You do not need to clear the whole room or building before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Tell us how to find the property and how to reach the work, and the visit is planned around that.

  1. We agree the area to be regrouted and point out any loose tiles.
  2. Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
  3. Dust is cleared from every joint.
  4. The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
  5. We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
  • Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
  • Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

About our regrouting in Steinis

Changing the grout colour is a simple way to update tiles. Light grout can go darker to hide marks or back again. Just mention the colour you’d like when you send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk. Typical jobs include floor grout that won’t come clean and a grout colour that no longer suits the room, on bathroom floors, shower walls and tiled floors.

Being further from a city does not change the work: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.

All our work is covered by our 12-month guarantee.

When something else is needed

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:

  • Cracked or broken tiles
  • Loose tiles, which need refixing first
  • A leaking wet room membrane

If you are not sure, just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we seal

  • Shower walls
  • Bathroom wall tiles
  • Bathroom floors
  • Kitchen splashbacks
  • Wet rooms
  • Tiled floors

When to call us in Steinis

Most grout is porous, so it soaks up water, soap and dirt. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble, especially in a shower that is used every day.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
  • Gaps where the shower grout has gone
  • Good tiles let down by tired grout
  • Floor grout that has worn and darkened

Whether the job is in Steinis itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.

Steinis questions

Do you work in hotels near Steinis?

Yes, hospitality work, including hotels, is part of what we do. Work can be planned room by room, and out-of-hours working can be arranged.

Will you come out to Steinis?

Yes, Steinis is covered. We work across all of Scotland, islands included, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.

Can you quote for more than one area?

Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.

How long will you be here?

That depends on the amount of work, but as a guide it takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. We will give you a better idea when we quote.

Do you reseal at the same time?

Most of the time, yes. Grout and sealant do different jobs, so we renew both and it’s all in the quote.

Will you leave a mess?

We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and the area is left clean when we finish.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are glad to have it sorted.

Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?

It can. Because the old grout is raked out, the new colour goes all the way into the joint, not just the surface.

Leave it or put it right?

Bleach can lighten stained grout for a while, but stains and mould that have soaked in tend to return. Replacing the grout and resealing the edges is a lasting fix. In a place like Steinis, small leaks are easy to put off, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.

Combining jobs into one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits, so it’s worth mentioning everything you’d like done. You will get one clear quote for the whole job.

Why us?

  • Neat joints and a tidy finish
  • Anti-fungal silicone where joints get wet
  • Every job guaranteed for a year
  • ARBOMaster approved applicator

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses

Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy. Several properties can be quoted together.

For anyone letting property in or around Steinis, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Just tell us the addresses and what each one needs, and pictures by email help.

Can I do it myself?

If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly.
