Regrouting in Strathmartine, Dundee
Problem with your tiled areas in Strathmartine? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
- Cracked grout along the bath or tray
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
How we handle regrouting in Strathmartine
We work across Strathmartine, regrouting bathrooms, showers and kitchens. The old grout is raked out, the joints cleaned and new grout laid, finished with new silicone at the edges. Typical jobs include grout that’s cracking and breaking up and kitchen splashback grout stained by grease, across kitchen splashbacks, wet rooms and bathroom 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.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

What we’re called out for in Strathmartine
Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. Grout that was too wet, not packed in or cleaned off too hard can wash out within a few years.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Old grout in a dated colour
- Corners filled with grout instead of silicone
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Kitchen splashback grout stained by grease
Managing a site like Baldragon Academy? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

What sealant work cannot fix
Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant will not put right:
- A structure that flexes behind the tiles
- Damaged tiles that need replacing
- A leaking shower valve or waste
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. In smaller Scottish places, parking is normally less of an issue than access and distance. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints.
- First we agree what’s being done and flag any loose tiles.
- Grout is raked out without chipping the tiles.
- The joints are cleaned out and vacuumed.
- The new grout goes in, then the tile faces are cleaned.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the work
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Let us know about parking restrictions

What affects the cost of regrouting
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The size of the job
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just tell us:
- How we’d reach the joints
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
We do not publish a price list, as no two jobs are quite the same. Instead, we give you a clear price for your job. To arrange one, email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Strathmartine
We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders. Resealing between tenancies is a simple way to keep a property in good order before the next move-in.
Whether it’s one flat or a portfolio, the work is the same standard: old sealant fully removed, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
DIY sealant or a professional job?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Your questions about regrouting in Strathmartine
Is Strathmartine in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Strathmartine is within the area we cover. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
I let a flat near Dundee station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear quote.
Could my grout be a different colour after regrouting?
Yes, plenty of people choose to. Darker grout can hide marks, while lighter grout brightens a room.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No, and we never do. It may look fine at first, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.
Will regrouting fix loose tiles?
Loose tiles need refixing before regrouting. We’ll show you which ones at the start.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
We seal corners with silicone. They move slightly, and grout there cracks.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Always. Sealing over the old bead is the commonest cause of early failure, and it’s something we never do.
Where are you based?
Mr Mastic is based in Crawley. Our applicators cover Strathmartine, along with the rest of our area.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Strathmartine
Private landlords in Scotland must be registered and 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. Scotland’s water is generally soft, so sealant and grout see less limescale than in much of England. Mould is another matter: a bathroom that stays damp still turns sealant and grout black.
Rented homes near Dundee station change hands often, and a regrout while the flat is empty is quicker than working around a tenant.

How the job changes by surface
Wet rooms
Wet rooms have water across the floor, so good grout is important. We check for loose tiles before starting.
Kitchen splashbacks
The grout by the hob and sink takes most of the mess. We renew the grout and the worktop sealant.
