Unibond premixed grout review

Post by handyman »

Was backed into a corner and had to use this stuff on a job.

Tile grout

Compairing to BAL powdered grout.

This stuff is terrible. It shrinks when drying and then required to be done again to fill the shrinkage and holes in the grout. Never had this happen to me before (mainly due to using BAL stuff) but have seen this in another house, and have now asked what grout they used, and it was the same.

Will not be using again.......... :cussing:

Its bals fault :wink: The local suppliers had white powdered grouts, but no cream coloured grout

Where i was working, the nearest supplier was 30 miles away!
