Raking out old, cracked or stained grout and regrouting tiled walls and floors for Tarland, backed by a one-year guarantee. Ask us for a quote.
- Shower grout that has worn away
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Floor grout that will not come clean
How it works
You do not need to clear the whole room or building, only the area right around the joints. We protect the rest, and the job takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room in most cases. In smaller Scottish places, parking is usually 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.
- Dust is cleared from every joint.
- We grout the joints and wipe the tiles clean.
- Internal corners and edges are resealed.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height

About our regrouting in Tarland
Regrouting suits shower walls, bathroom floors, kitchen splashbacks and wet rooms. Some jobs are a whole room, others just the shower. Either way, tiled areas in Tarland are handled the same careful way. We work on wet rooms, bathroom wall tiles and bathroom floors, and people most often call us about grout in a colour the owner wants to change and grout that makes sound tiles look old.
Being further from a city does not change the work: everything old is cut out, the joints are cleaned and dried, and new sealant or grout goes in. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee in Tarland and across Aberdeenshire.

What else we do in Tarland
Should I try it myself first?
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
Not every job suits DIY: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Your questions about regrouting in Tarland
Is Tarland in your area for regrouting?
Yes, Tarland is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Will you come out to Tarland?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status, and we’re fully insured.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We explain the product when we quote.
How much does regrouting cost in Tarland?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote and we’ll talk you through it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done.
How long will you be here?
Most jobs take a few hours for a shower enclosure, longer for a whole room, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need access to the joints, so we will agree that with you when we book. Indoors, that generally means someone at home.
Do you need regrouting in Tarland?
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, and damp grout is where mould grows. Black marks that come back after cleaning are often in the grout itself.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Grout that is cracking and breaking up
- Grout that makes sound tiles look old
- Stained grout that cleaning won’t shift
In and around Tarland, as anywhere, good regrouting starts with a clean, dry, properly prepared joint.

Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Get any tile that moves checked promptly
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Rinse the tiles after showering
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
Keep an eye on the silicone in the corners. It’s the part that moves, so it’s generally the first thing to need attention, long before the grout does.
Grout that’s washing out of a shower shouldn’t be left. Every shower pushes more water into the gaps, and that water can reach the wall or the floor below.
How we quote for regrouting
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The number and length of the joints
- The number of rooms or windows
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
What it costs depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and how easy the joints are to reach. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- Photos by email, if that’s easy
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- Any previous sealing or DIY work
Every job is quoted individually. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with the details, and pictures are welcome.
Tarland homes and their sealant
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. 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.
In the older streets around Tarland Old Parish Church, timber floors under older bathrooms flex, so joints need a sealant that moves with them.

What happens if it’s left?
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They don’t fill cracks or stop water, and stains can show through again. A proper regrout puts new grout in the joint. When the nearest tradesperson is a drive away, it’s tempting to leave a small leak, but water through a failed joint keeps working away until it’s fixed.
Rather than a set price list, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. The price is agreed before we begin.
