grouting

Hi guys, having a nightmare grouting a bathroom to a white colour. I started with mapei ultracolor white, alot of it came out light grey and i ended up degrouting the lot as was not pleased with the colour against white tiles. Now armed with grout 3000 in pure white, i done a very small...

grouting epoxy I found these sponges in cellulose, Like those for epoxy, the thickness is only 1 cm. I bought 30 packs of 2 pieces. For 30 €.

Do to time constraints on a small filled and honed travertine bathroom can I grout before sealing?(Then seal at a later date) I know it goes against the grain, but is it possible or advisable?.......picture framing and grout haze would be possibilities?

hi, done some grouting today and upon drying - sections look greyish (meant to be white!!)- up close its hard to notice it but it is definently grey from a distance. I used powdered mapei grout, though i think my mixture likely had a little to much water in it maybe as i've noticed some...

hi guys, I need to grout a bathroom in a few weeks for a friend and wondered what is better - a squeegee or a float for the job? I've read floats are easier but i already have the squeegee so if i can use that ofc id prefer but if its going to do a poor job, would a float be better? Also...

hi all, not sure if it's been covered, Customer wants me to regroup and seal kitchen floor tiles, but I was hoping there might be a product out there that will refresh the grout instead of taking and regrouting?

Hi, I've just laid my first Victorian (Original Style) floor and I'm about to grout it, I was just wondering if there is anything I should watch out for with the grouting or is it straight forward? Cheers Duncan

I guys laying the tiles below this week. Is there a technique to grouting the artificial joints? They aren't very deep so do I need to let the grout set a bit longer than normal before washing down?

Just wondering if anyone else who's worked with Original Style might be able to advise. I've tiled a floor with their "black" and "white" encaustic 6" tiles and have sealed with Universeal All-in-one sealant. Went back today to grout but was getting some staining on the white tiles (cast iron...

does anyone do it ever ? I've not personally done it but have seen people do it, how does it effect the seal?

I am going to tile my shower area with 600 x 300 tiles and put metal (bright chrome) listello between them. I was wondering about the grouting, and if it might scratch the face. Also as it is going to be in the shower area will the metal tarnish? Any advice greatly appreciated

Sorry its me again - will go away eventually.. Just inspected brown grout in shower and I did a bad job. Gaps everywhere - I must get better light in there. Should I scratch some of it out with a stanley knife and reapply or just reapply on top? I suspect its needs to grip a rough surface...

Morning all, I'm after some advice re grouting.. I consider myself to be a good DIY tiler (well I did anyway). I've previously used glazed tiles and had no problem cleaning them up after grouting, but having helped out a friend with a large floor area I've found cleaning the tiles a...

Hello, I noticed recently that my builder may have made a mistake when tiling some little mosaics ( Polished Marble 2.5cm x 5cm) in between large wall tiles in the middle of the shower enclosure area area (wall behind where the rain shower comes out from) I noticed some of the grout was going a...

Glad this floor is finished, 125m2 and took 414kg of grout!!

Years ago when grout basically came in one sort, you had to add your own flexi additive if you wanted flexible grout, and wide joint grout just had a load of sand in it. I was shown a way for certain tiles, grouting as usual with a thin ish mix, then getting a handful of grout powder and...

Hi guys and girls We recently had our shower refitted however have had some problems with cracked grout near the base of the shower. We believe this is because the 'plumber' didn't level the shower tray initially and had to pull it up possibly wrecking the tiling. Unfortunately we didn't notice...
