Unfortunately the tiler did not follow the manufactures instructions for mixing up the two part epoxy grout in the correct ratio so it has cracked and needs to be completely removed, taking care not to damage the anti-crack mat underneath, and regrouted. No one will do the job on a fixed price...
Hi there
I am looking for a tiler to help me regrout a fairly small area (about 2m by 2m) in a shower room. After about 2/3 years the existing grout is now beginning to fail - the tiles were not laid by an experienced tiler and that is now beginning to show!
I recently got several loose/hollow tiles rebonded on my bathroom floor. Having left with several drill holes and cracked grout, I hired someone to do the repair and replace all the cracked grout with new grout. This contractor said he was going to use epoxy grout for the job and when I...
We have used a grinder to take a millimeter or so off our floor as it was 40 years old, filthy, damaged and yucky. The tiles look great now and are natural unglazed terracotta. However some grout is now missing and now we need to regrout. I have bought Lithofin "stain stop w" as a sealer, but...
Hello,
I have just had my bathroom done 2 days ago by a professional tiler. When he has finished the grouting it looks like he has washed too much grout out of the joints.
Will it be OK to go back over it with fresh grout.
The grout is a good quality flexible grout and the tiles are...
Getting a bathroom regrouted, bit concerned tiler has only taken the top layer of old grout out. Thought at least 3mm of tile sides needed exposing for the new grout to adhere? Please let me know your opinions.
My mate would like me to regrout his bathroom. It will be a very painstaking and fiddly job as he has mosaics running linear.
My question is, are there any really good grout cleaners out there that will take it back to its original, or as close as possible, state? Hopefully eradicating the...
Has anyone ever been brave enough to attempt a regrout on a floor with electric heating under it? If so, how did you go about it? I understand from the client that the mat wasn't SLC'd before tiling, so that adds to the issue. Any thoughts? Thanks, Bri.

Hi. I tried to get some wall grout out of 2mm joints the other day with the thing carnide blade. The blade lasted about 5 minutes! Didnt get much done.
Am I doing something wrong? Does speed setting make much difference, or was I just unlucky and someone had used a sanded grout?
Anyone know...
Going to estimate a job where the plumber fitted the bathroom and then did the tiles. Customer said the tiling was ok but the grout job was terrible. They want a quote to remove the old grout and re grout it. Does anybody have a set price or do you just charge labour rate? How long does it...
