flexible grout

Post by virtualredDIY »

Hi

Can anyone recommend a good flexible grout (In beige) that you have used previously? And where the best place to get it would be. Its for a bathroom floor

Any input much appreciated

Thanks

I tend to use Mapei Ultracolour Plus grout available from your nearest Tile Giant or Screwfix - comes in about 20 different colours.

Thanks Darrenba

Out of interest how would you personally decide whether a floor required flexible grout or standard ? Would it just be the look of the underlying floor you were tiling on ?

I ask myself.

Is it tiled? Yes.
Does it need grouting? Yes.
What type shall I use? Flexible.

The difference in cost between a cheap bag of grout and an antibacterial flexible grout is about £4, is it even worth considering anything else?

As for brands, Adrex, Mapei, Bal, Tile Master. All of which will see you well.
