How we handle regrouting in Straiton
We regroute showers, bathroom walls and floors, splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Straiton are handled the same careful way. If you have grout in a colour the owner wants to change and cracked or crumbling grout lines, we can put it right.
For a place like Straiton, 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.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

Bathrooms and kitchens in Straiton
In Scotland, private landlords have to meet the Repairing Standard, which includes keeping fixtures and fittings in reasonable repair. Failed sealant around a bath or shower is worth sorting between tenancies. Scottish Water supplies are generally soft, so limescale is less of a problem than in hard-water areas. But mould still grows into sealant and grout in a room that doesn’t dry out.
In and around Straiton, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Have loose tiles looked at early
- Open a window or run the fan to clear steam
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Wipe water off the walls when you are done
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. Corners flex, so it’s generally the first thing to need attention, long before the grout does.
Fixing grout early is a small job. Left, the same problem can let water through, so get it looked at when you notice it.

Landlord and commercial work in Straiton

What we cannot put right
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant will not do:
- Water coming from plumbing rather than grout
- A floor or wall that keeps moving
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What affects the cost of regrouting
We do not publish a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The quote depends on:
- Whether the work is at height
- How much there is to do
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Working hours on commercial sites
Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You’ll know the price before we begin.
What to tell us for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- What’s wrong with the joints now
If you are in Straiton and need regrouting, send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk. A short description of the job and where it is helps us quote, and we will agree the price before any work begins.
When to call us in Straiton
Grout used in corners or along the bath cracks because those joints flex. Those joints should be silicone, and when they are not, water gets in.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
In the older streets around Straiton Parish Church, walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
What your quote should include
- What the cure time is
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Who turns up on the day
What we do, step by step
On the day, we start by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. 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, and the visit is planned around that.
- Every tile area is checked for hollow or loose tiles first.
- We rake out the grout evenly, protecting the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed clean.
- We regrout the joints and clean the tile faces.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Mention any tricky access
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive
