    Attempting to do my bathroom and kitchen floor and am very grateful for your videos. Headed out now for a mask and some extra buckets and sponges as I’d already purchased a dremel, hand tool and the grout.
    Going to attempt just small maybe 4x4 sections at a time.
    Thanks again and wish me luck. 🍀

    Hi, how much grout do I have to remove all of the old grout or only a few millimetres? Great video by the way

    Just perfect for me - I have exactly the same tiles, same colour, and the same colour grout.

    A lot of manufacturers don’t recommend using a drill and whisk to mix grout, but rather to do it by hand. This is because the powered method introduces a lot of air into the mix and causes the grout to go off quicker.

  • @saeedasghar7038
    @saeedasghar7038 4 місяці тому

    When you start wiping the excess off would you recommend warm or cold water.

    I recently grouted my bathroom using black Mapei grout. It’s been weeks since have done it, the grout appears dry but for some reason if it gets wet, it will run and come off on my hands. It also seems very porous. Any advice?

  • @robertwells2629
    @robertwells2629 4 місяці тому

    Our grott has cause a leak, I can see small cracks and when the shower is on it leaks when the tiles are wet. Luckily we have another bathroom we can use until I regrott it.

      You may potentially have to strip the plaster board if that’s what it’s sat on as it will soak

  • @ichaicha4248

    I have a small area to grout and a big bucket of grout which needs to be mixed. So is it possible to use part of your advice and instead of following manufacturers instructions to use the whole lot as theyre packages of stuff to mix in are all weighed in their specific weights to create the chemical reaction. Its expensive too, i didnt buy it and will waste most of it because i dont need it. Any help is appreciated, thank you

    using the instruction from the manufacturer, with the amount of water and grout, I can only get a peanut butter level, otherwise I will be adding too much water...

    What is the ratio of powder grout to water if you only need small amount please 🙏

    • @sharitucker8263
      @sharitucker8263 2 місяці тому

      Should say in the instructions on your packet of grout. I suspect different brands would have different ratios.

    Always wear gloves and NEVER grout with your fingers, especially in the corners!!
