How we handle regrouting in Vassa
We take the old grout out to a consistent depth, without damaging the edges of the tiles. After vacuuming, new grout goes in and the tiles are wiped clean, and the corners get fresh silicone. We work on tiled floors, bathroom wall tiles and shower walls, and common reasons people get in touch are grout stained black or orange that won’t clean and corners filled with grout instead of silicone.
For a place like Vassa, the job is the same as anywhere: old material out, joints cleaned and dried, and a fresh, even finish. We just plan the journey and access beforehand.
A 12-month guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Work for landlords, hotels and businesses
Mouldy or split sealant often shows up at the end of a tenancy, and it’s quick to put right between tenancies. We can quote for more than one property at once.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which is a bigger problem in a rented property. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Vassa
Vassa 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. Island jobs need planning around ferries and the weather, so give us as much notice as you can.
Whether the job is in Vassa itself or nearby, the right material for each joint matters as much as a neat finish.
Vassa is in the Shetland Islands. From the centre of Vassa to the outskirts, regrouting is available for homes and businesses alike, from flats and houses to offices and hotels. We cover 63 towns and villages across the Shetland Islands, large and small.

Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Avoid neat bleach and strong acid descalers on grout
- Run the extractor fan during and after a shower
- Use a squeegee on the tiles after showering
- Rinse soap off the tiles after each shower
Have any tile that moves checked right away. A loose tile cracks the grout around it and lets water in.
Small problems with grout are quick to put right. Left, the same problem can let water through so it’s worth dealing with as soon as you spot it.

What else we do in Vassa
What we are called out for in Vassa
Some grout fails because it was mixed or laid badly. Grout that was too wet, not packed in or cleaned off too hard tends to wash out early.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Good tiles let down by tired grout
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Stained grout that cleaning will not shift
Around Vassa, as everywhere, regrouting is only as good as the preparation behind it.
Questions to ask before booking
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- What guarantee comes with the work
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
What we do, step by step
Most of a good job is in the preparation, so that is where we spend the time. Every joint is cleaned and dried before new material goes in. All told, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full day, depending on the area. Around Vassa, distance and access matter more than parking. 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.
- We vacuum the joints so the new grout bonds.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
How to prepare
- Mention any tricky access
- Mention if the joints have been sealed before
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Related advice
Why deal with it now?
If tiles are loose, regrouting alone is not the answer. We point that out first so you know what’s involved. On sound tiles, regrouting avoids the upheaval of a retile. 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.
Leaving a failed joint usually makes the job bigger, not smaller, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are unsure, drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk for an honest opinion and a quote.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchen splashbacks
Kitchen grout collects grease and food splashes. Once it’s stained, new grout is often the only fix.
Shower walls
Showers put more water on grout than anywhere else. We rake it out and regrout and renew the silicone at the edges.
