Regrouting in Stenton
Grout is the filler between your tiles, while sealant goes where tiles meet a bath, tray or worktop. Once grout starts to crack or wash away, water can get in behind the tiles. Our job is to rake it out and put new grout in and renew the silicone at the edges. We work on shower walls, tiled floors and bathroom floors, and common reasons people get in touch are good tiles let down by tired grout and splashback grout that has darkened.
For a place like Stenton, the job is the same as anywhere: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. The journey and access are simply planned in advance.
Our work is backed for twelve months.

For landlords and businesses
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.

Do you need regrouting in Stenton?
A poor original job is a common cause. If it was mixed too wet or not pressed in firmly tends to wash out early.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Grout in a colour the owner wants to change
- Shower grout that has worn away
If you let a flat or house near East Linton station, stained grout drags a rental down, and regrouting between lets puts that right.

The process
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so there are no surprises. Surfaces next to the work are protected before we start. The work usually takes a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room. Somewhere like Stenton may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Mention tracks, gates, ferries or anything else about the route.
- We check the tiles for any that are hollow or loose.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- We finish with silicone in the moving joints.
How to prepare
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Clear the area around the work
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can

Advice
Towns and villages near Stenton

Stenton homes and their sealant
Stenton 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. 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.
For an older house near a landmark such as Stenton Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Should I try it myself first?
A DIY attempt doesn’t rule out a professional job. We remove it and do the joint properly, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
What the job involves on each surface
Corners and edges
Internal corners move, so we seal them rather than grout them.
Wet rooms
Both the grout and the silicone in a wet room matter. We replace the grout and reseal the edges.
Your questions about regrouting in Stenton
Can you help a landlord with a rental near East Linton station?
Yes, we work for landlords and agents. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Can you do regrouting in Stenton?
Yes, Stenton is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, because it fails. The old sealant always comes out first, so the new sealant bonds properly.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
We seal corners with silicone. They flex and grout can’t take that movement.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures, and ventilation helps.

Looking after it afterwards
How long the joints last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep an eye on the silicone along the edges
- Keep the fan on after showering
- Keep harsh bleach and acid cleaners off the grout
- Have loose tiles looked at early
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use stops soap and water sitting on the grout. Ventilate the room well so the grout dries between uses.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.
