The ball rep came out and put it down to under hydration. We striped all the grout out which was a awful job...

    Black Bal Grout seems to have penetrated through the wall tiles

    Can any tilers recommend a way of getting these black dots off our wall tiles? The tiles are matt white and are porcelain. Black Bal grouting was used. We have tried all different grout removers but none have worked.

    Anyone going to be following this? I don't like football much but last night caught some of the game England played against Scotland. England won 6-0 which I thought was great! Haven't seen the mens team do that recently! :p

    Kubala grout float review

    Well, I was sent one to review by a member on here @Lucas D and yes his post was right, it's a great float, very slim and light with a great sharp rubber edge which removes grout very well, I can't comment on its durability but if it lasts ok I'll probably get another.

    Kubala 10mm notched trowel

    just had the pleasure of using a kubala 10mm notched trowel, I found it lighter than my Rubi trowel. It was easier to clean as it's made of stainless steel and the handle is all plastic. I've only used it to lay 10m2 of floor tiles but will post another review in a few weeks time to see how well...

    I've been tiling for last 16 years or so. I've noticed that pro tilers use great tile cutters but often overlook hand tools. How often you bought trowel that lasted 2 jobs? I sometimes struggled with bad grout float for weeks. It all changed when I started to use Kubala tools from Poland. In...

    Hi all, As the title suggests really. I'm tiling a shower area above a bath using Bal SPF and noticed the instructions say you shouldn't use a shower for 2 weeks afterwards. Seems a long time to ask the tenant not to use his shower after it's finished-is it really necessary to wait that long...
