What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. Most jobs take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Somewhere like Strachur may be a longer drive, and the journey is planned ahead. Tell us about tracks, gates, a ferry crossing or anything unusual about getting there.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- We remove the old grout carefully.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- We renew the silicone at the corners and edges.
Getting ready for the visit

Regrouting for homes and businesses in Strachur
If you’ve been scrubbing grout that won’t come clean, the stain is often in the grout itself. Replacing it is the lasting answer and you can pick a different colour while you are at it. We work on kitchen splashbacks, bathroom wall tiles and bathroom floors, and the jobs we see most are grout that’s cracking and breaking up and old grout in a dated colour.
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 generally the first signs.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right with it in that time, tell us and we will put it right.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Don’t use strong acidic cleaners on grout
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
- Clean grout with a mild bathroom cleaner
A squeegee or cloth over the tiles after use keeps water off the grout. Ventilate the room well to help it dry out.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.
Strachur questions
What guarantee comes with regrouting in Strachur?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are fully insured, and an ARBOMaster approved applicator.
Do you cover Strachur for regrouting?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Strachur is part of that. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job, and we’ll send you a clear quote.
Does someone need to be in?
It depends on the job. For work indoors, someone needs to let us in, while outside work can sometimes be arranged differently.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. We work neatly, protect the area around the joints and tidy up afterwards.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few photos.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it won’t last. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
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.
Will there be a smell?
That depends on the sealant. Some products have a noticeable smell, others very little.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Strachur
Strachur is within about 1 mile of 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 includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Tired, leaking sealant is worth putting right before a new tenant moves in.
Around Strachur, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it. Homes close to Kilmaglash Parish Church and Sculptured Stones include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

Leave it or put it right?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They won’t fill gaps or keep water out and stains often come back through. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. Out of town in Scotland, exposed walls take a lot of weather, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

If in doubt, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Landlord and commercial work in Strachur
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance.
Businesses can book us for washrooms, kitchens, offices and more. For commercial premises, we can talk through working times when we quote.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Not every job suits DIY: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
