When comparing normal cement based grout to Epoxy Grout, one realizes the distinctive benefits of Epoxy Grout over traditional grout. The most important benefit of Epoxy Grout is that it’s far easier to maintain and clean, is resistant to mould and mildew, is non shrink and is waterproof, so no more leaking showers. Once you’ve used Epoxy Grout, going back to traditional grout won’t be an option. The fact is, Epoxy Grout can easily be cleaned using any normal cleaning agent that dissolves the dirt and grime present in grout lines. Now, can you remember doing that with cement based grout? Normal grout is highly porous in nature and it absorbs dirt, grease and grime that it comes into contact with and is subject to cracking and promotes mould and mildew.

Epoxy Tile Grout, on the other hand, is no-porous and won’t absorb any contaminant or stains, so cleaning of Epoxy Grout just needs dissolving and subsequent removing of grime and dirt that gets collected atop Epoxy Grout. Another distinct advantage of Epoxy Grout is that unlike any normal grout it needs no sealing because Epoxy is not porous like normal cement based grout.

Epoxy Tile Grout can be applied to all different areas including pools, outdoor areas & patios, bathrooms, kitchens, stairs, wash basins, wet areas, commercial spaces and more!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How long does epoxy grout typically last compared to traditional grout?

Epoxy tile grout is known for its exceptional durability, often outlasting traditional options by a significant margin. Traditional grout, which is cement-based, typically needs replacement every 5–10 years due to wear, staining and cracking. In contrast, epoxy grout, made from resins and hardeners, may last up to 15–20 years or more. Its resistance to chemicals, stains and moisture makes it a long-lasting option, especially in high-traffic and high-moisture areas.

Is epoxy grout suitable for all types of tiles and surfaces?

Epoxy grout is highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of tiles and surfaces. Its superior bonding properties and resistance to cracking make it ideal for both wall and floor applications. However, it’s crucial to consider the specific characteristics of your tiles and the environment in which they will be used. For instance, some delicate or porous tiles might require a special approach or additional sealing to prevent potential damage during the grouting process.

Can epoxy grout be used in high-moisture areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens?

Absolutely, epoxy grout is especially well-suited for high-moisture areas like bathrooms and kitchens. Its non-porous nature prevents water from seeping through, which helps reduce the risk of mould, mildew, and staining. Unlike traditional grout, which can absorb water and become discoloured or weakened over time, epoxy grout maintains its integrity and appearance even when frequently exposed to water and humidity. This makes it an ideal choice for areas that require robust waterproofing and easy maintenance.

Can epoxy grout be applied over existing grout lines or is it necessary to remove the old grout first?

In most scenarios, it is recommended to remove the old grout before applying a new epoxy layer to ensure optimal adhesion and a uniform finish. Existing tile grout may be cracked, stained or uneven. Removing the old grout allows for a clean surface, ensuring the new layer bonds effectively and provides a seamless, professional look. However, there are certain cases where applying epoxy grout over existing one may be feasible, depending on the specific requirements of the project.
