Regrouting in Tom nan Ragh
Regrouting is normally paired with resealing. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they need flexible silicone instead. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. If you have grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and cracked grout along the bath or tray, we can help, on tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and shower walls alike.
For a place like Tom nan Ragh, 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. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
Our work is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

Different surfaces, different methods
Shower walls
Most regrouting jobs include a shower. Cracked or missing grout here lets water behind the tiles.
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so the whole area is finished together.
How we quote for regrouting
There’s no set price list. The quote depends on:
- The product the joint needs
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Mould in or behind the old joints
- Any working-time requirements on site
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.
What we need to know
To make quoting easier, please include:
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- The problem you’ve noticed
Asking for a quote is easy: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Why act early in Tom nan Ragh
Colouring the surface of old grout is a quick cosmetic fix. They don’t fill cracks or stop water and stains often come back through. 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.
There are no prices on our website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.

DIY versus a professional finish
What a professional job adds is preparation and the right product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
Tom nan Ragh questions
Is Tom nan Ragh in your area for regrouting?
Yes. We work across all of Scotland, and Tom nan Ragh is part of that. You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and tell us what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
What guarantee comes with regrouting in Tom nan Ragh?
Every job comes with our 12-month guarantee, wherever it is. We are also fully insured and ARBOMaster approved.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. ARBOMaster is the approved applicator scheme for Arbo sealants, and we are part of it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Which products do you use?
Products from Arbo and Everbuild, among others, chosen to suit the joint. We will tell you what we are using and why.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No, it will not last. It may look fine at first, but the new bead soon lifts. The old sealant has to come out completely.
Should corners be grouted or sealed?
Internal corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone. Grout in a moving joint soon cracks.
Can you regrout if a few tiles are loose?
Tiles that have come away need sorting first. We will point them out at the start.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Tiles that have come away from the wall
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Waterproofing that has failed below the tiling
Not sure which it is? You can email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Wet rooms
- Bathroom wall tiles
- Tiled floors
- Kitchen splashbacks
- Shower walls

What we’re called out for in Tom nan Ragh
Most grout is porous, so water, soap and grime soak into it. Over time it stains, softens and starts to crumble and showers that get daily use suffer most.
The most common problems we see are:
- Discoloured grout on otherwise sound tiles
- Splashback grout that has darkened
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
- Floor grout that will not come clean
For an older house near a landmark such as St Munn's Parish Church, bathrooms in older houses have often been refitted more than once, with sealant laid over sealant.
What your quote should include

- How much experience the applicator has
- Are they insured?

Regrouting around Tom nan Ragh
Tom nan Ragh 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 Tom nan Ragh, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.

What we do, step by step
When we get to you, we compare the joints with what we discussed. If we find something unexpected, we talk it through with you first. Most jobs then take anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Outside jobs in Tom nan Ragh need a dry day, because sealant won’t bond to a wet joint, so an outdoor job can move if the forecast changes. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- We start by checking the tiles for any that are loose or hollow.
- We rake out the old grout to an even depth, taking care of the tile edges.
- The joints are vacuumed and cleaned.
- We fill the joints with new grout, then clean the tiles.
- Corners and edges are resealed with flexible silicone, not grout.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
