Professional regrouting & resealing in Edinburgh
Regrouting and silicone renewal are the most cost-effective bathroom improvements you can make. If your tiles are still in good condition but the grout is stained, cracked or mouldy — or your bath and shower silicone is mouldy, peeling or leaking — there's no need to retile. John's professional regrouting and resealing service transforms bathrooms across Edinburgh.
Full Re-grouting
All old grout carefully removed and replaced with fresh, clean grout. Transforms your Edinburgh bathroom.
Partial Grout Repairs
Cracked or missing grout in isolated areas repaired and colour-matched where possible.
Grout Sealing
Fresh grout finished with a spray sealer — reduces water penetration and keeps grout cleaner for longer.
Kitchen Re-grouting
Splashbacks and kitchen wall tiles refreshed — particularly effective on metro tile kitchens.
Mould Removal & Regrouting
Mouldy grout removed and replaced — stops the problem at source rather than just cleaning it.
How long does regrouting take?
Grout needs 24 hours to cure before the shower or bath is used again.
Save money before you retile — regrouting in Edinburgh
Many homeowners across Edinburgh assume tired-looking bathroom tiles need replacing. In most cases this isn't true — professional regrouting can achieve a transformation that looks just as good as new tiles at a fraction of the cost. Not sure which you need? See John's regrout or retile guide →
John provides professional regrouting and resealing across Edinburgh — Old Town, New Town, Leith, Marchmont, Portobello, Morningside, Stockbridge and beyond. A typical full bathroom regrout takes one day and the difference is remarkable.
Why Edinburgh bathrooms need regrouting
Edinburgh's housing stock is unique. Tenement flats in areas like Marchmont, Stockbridge and Leith often have bathrooms that haven't been refreshed in decades. The original tilework is frequently still in great condition — but the grout and silicone tells a different story. Regrouting is the best way to refresh these bathrooms without disturbing period features or hammering at original tiles.
Older bathrooms with limited ventilation also see grout and silicone deteriorate faster — moisture sits in the room rather than venting away, and mould builds up at the silicone seams around baths and showers. This is a common pattern in older Edinburgh properties.
Regrouting and resealing is also a popular choice for landlords, letting agents and short-let hosts — refreshing a tired bathroom between tenants takes a day or two, far less than a full retile.

How John's regrouting service works
A multi-cutter with a grout blade cuts out all the affected grout without damaging the tiles. The area is wiped down and re-grouted, then finished with a spray sealer to stop water penetrating the fresh grout. It's a straightforward job when you know what you're doing — John has completed thousands of regrouts since 2008 and using the right materials makes a real difference to how long it lasts.
