Regrouting in Wick, Highland
Problem with your tiled areas in Wick? We cut out the old, prepare the joints and apply the right sealant.

What affects the quote in Wick
The price is agreed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Whether old sealant or filler has to be cut out
- The type of sealant required
- How easy the joints are to reach
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.

Regrouting in Wick
Most regrouting jobs include resealing too. Grout is for the joints between tiles, but internal corners and edges flex, so they’re sealed with silicone rather than grout. Doing both at once leaves the whole area sound. We work on kitchen splashbacks, shower walls and tiled floors, and the jobs we see most are greasy, stained grout behind the hob and cracked grout along the bath or tray.
Bathrooms in smaller places like Wick work just as hard as those in the cities. Generally soft Scottish water means less limescale, but steam still lets mould into sealant and grout.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the visit works
The work is kept neat and contained to the area we’re working on, so you can get on with your day. The job generally takes a few hours, or longer for a fully tiled room. Outdoor work around Wick depends on the weather, as sealant needs a dry surface, so external jobs may need to move if the day turns wet. Indoor work goes ahead whatever the weather.
- 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.
- New grout is pressed into the joints and the tiles are cleaned.
- Silicone goes into the corners and along the edges.
Before we arrive
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the work area
- Clear the area around the work

Questions from Wick
Do you work in hotels near Wick?
Yes, hotels and guest houses are among the places we work. Rooms can be done a few at a time, so the building stays open.
Will you come out to Wick?
Yes. Wick is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. Our work covers the whole of Scotland. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.
What should I tell you?
Where the job is, what the problem is and roughly how big it is. If you can, email a few pictures.
What goes in the corners, grout or silicone?
We seal corners with silicone. They flex and grout cannot take that movement.
Can you seal over the old sealant?
No, because it fails. We remove every bit of old sealant first.
Is it possible to regrout only the shower area?
Yes, that’s common. Shower grout tends to go before the rest, so many people regrout just that part.
Do you reseal at the same time?
Generally, yes. Corners and edges need flexible silicone, and it makes sense to renew both together.
Can tenants book the work?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often happy for the work to be arranged.
Common problems we fix in Wick
A bathroom that stays damp keeps the grout wet, and damp grout is where mould grows. When black spots keep returning, the mould has usually got into the grout.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Grout that stays dark however much it’s cleaned
- A grout colour that no longer suits the room
- Gaps where the shower grout has gone
- Cracked or crumbling grout lines
If you let a flat or house near Wick station, clean grout and fresh sealant between tenancies make a bathroom look cared for again.
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Whether VAT is included
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wick
A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
We also work for businesses, from offices to washrooms and kitchens. On commercial sites, working times can be discussed when we quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Corners and edges
We reseal edges at the same time as regrouting, so the whole area is finished together.
Bathroom wall tiles
Splash areas around basins and baths stain first. We can do part of a wall or all of it.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Leaks from pipes, valves or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Tiles that are loose or hollow behind
- Cracked or broken tiles
Not sure which it is? You can send an email to info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Can I do it myself?
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.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, then guaranteed for a year.
Bathrooms and kitchens in Wick
Wick is within about 1 mile of the coast. Near the coast, holiday lets and guest houses can see bathrooms used by one guest after another, which wears sealant and grout out faster than in a quiet home. 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.
Managing a site like Wick High School? Then washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
