Brisbane Epoxy Grouting & Regrouting

Epoxy grout is the king of grouts. It has been widely used in commercial applications for decades; however of the past few years epoxy has gained popularity in domestic applications as well. This is due to the fact that people are starting to realise the amazing benefits of epoxy grout.

The benefits of Epoxy Grout include:

1. Does not stain
2. Repels most chemicals and acids
3. Does not shrink, chip or crack
4. Provides a hygienic surface as it absorbs nothing
5. Very hard wearing
6. Can be installed on floors and walls
7. Variety of colours
8. Never needs sealing

Most common areas where epoxy grout is used are hospitals, commercial kitchens, floors applications in heavy traffic areas, cafes, pubs, cool rooms and freezers.

Epoxy grout is much harder to work with and requires experienced technicians like BRISBANE TILE RESTORATION. It involves up to 4 times more work and time to grout an area with epoxy grout compared to regular grout. It consists of 2-3 components which have to be mixed carefully and precisely in order to achieve best results. Epoxy grouting and regrouting requires a lot of experience as it has to be installed and cleaned at much higher speeds then regular grout. A mixture of epoxy grout has a pot life of about 30 minutes whereas a mixture of regular grout has a pot life of up to 90 minutes.

Epoxy grout residue must be removed within 20 minutes of installation and require 3-4 rinses with special cleaning solution in order to be completely removed. It also requires special tools and personal protection during application. Some fumes might be present during the clean up process so the areas of installation require adequate ventilation.

Epoxy grout costs more per square meter than regular grout. The components themselves are 4 times dearer and involve 3 times more work of regular grouting. Having said that, epoxy grout can last a life time with minimal maintenance and never needs to be sealed. The extra money spend in the beginning is definitely worth it in the long run.
