Hi everyone
A newbie here, needing some professional advice please!
We have a shower that was installed in an upstairs bathroom about 8 years ago. It's all been fine until now, but we are finding that the white grout around a few of our mosaic tiles is turning brown about 10-12 hours after we...
Hi
I have noticed dark patches appearing on some of the white tiles in my shower / bathroom. The patches appear blueish/purpleish and are quite noticeable. Just wondering what the cause of this is likely to be, and what can be done to remediate? My initial thoughts are that there is water...
Would anyone care to suggest a specific colour/brand of non-white grout for white metro tiles. Perhaps a grey tone?
I'm presuming a non-white grout will be less liable to showing discolouration of the grout with time.
Thanks!

Hello, I'm new here and looking for a little advice.
I have just opened a tub of Bal White Star ready-mixed adhesive which has been stored unopened for some time. It still seems usable enough but perhaps slightly on the thick side. My question is: Can the adhesive be thinned slightly by...

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...
A little advice required for a newby to mixing adhesive (previously only fitted small tiles with ready mix). I have 2 x 20kg bags of Keraflex Maxi S1 White - do I have to mix the whole bag as per instructions or can I mix part of the bag?
Many thanks .....
The question is as above........
I have a customer who is determined to have white floor grout
White floor grouts that I have used in the past(long time ago)have tended not to be the white........no names.
Any recommendations for the whitest available, and a grout sealer while we're on about it!
TIA

We then sealed the slated with a FILA intensifier to seal the stone as recommended by the supplier.
Recently white staining has occurred as shown in the attached picture. I have reapplied the...
