Been Installing Tiles For 30 Years I've Never Seen Such a Technique! Clean Grouts 

I've used this grout removal and regrouting technique to refresh all the old dirty grout between all my floor tiles and wall tiles in kitchen, laundry and bathrooms, bit-by-bit, over many years. A big and successful project. I found it generates a lot of dust, simultaneous vacuum cleaning is essential. The multitool also chews through a lot of these expensive carbide grout removal blades. But the really pleasing end result justifies the expense and effort. I used Davco Rejuvenation Grout (Antique Lace colour). It comes premixed in small pails, a bit expensive, but lends itself to working in small areas when I had small amounts of free time available. This grout is designed to stick to existing grout which means that you only have to remove a small depth of old dirty grout crust, doesn't have to be removed all the way down to the floor substrate. I used a small tiling sponge in alternating half-circular motions to flush the regrout lines with the surface of the tiles, and a microfibre cloth to polish off the fresh haze left over on the tiles after final sponge clean - don't wait too long because the dried haze is hard to remove, requires real sweaty effort. If/when it dries out slightly and gets a bit stiff in the pail, I just added some water and used a scraper to stab/mix the water in to make it nice and buttery again, like thick yoghurt. No need to throw any away, just spray surface of pail contents with water, keep pail closed and store inside a plastic bag in a cool place.

Thank you for taking the time to show us this quick and effective method! Love it! ❤

I can do tile work but this guy doing amazing work you guys should support this excellent work !

I used a cement sheet cutter to remove my grout it's a beast and zero dust. I also use a grouting float and push the grout into the joins

The reason why new clean grout get dirty over time is because wet sloppy mopping of the floor causes fine dirt particles to settle and embed into down into grout lines, making them grimy and uncleanable over time. Once you have finished grouting or regrouting, only use a damp finger-type damp mop with a spinning bucket to clean the floor, so no dirt-contaminated water slops into the grout grooves. I've been cleaning my regrouted tile floor with a damp finger mop for a few years now, grout line still look great! I guess it has also helped that I sealed the fresh dry regrout lines with a waterproofing sealer recommended by the regrout manufacturer.

If you have installed tile for 30 years and never seen this then you need a profession. This is something you would learn the first couple weeks.

WOW, Thank You, Iam getting ready to do some tile work, and your video has been SOOOO helpful. Thanks from Puerto Rico.

Thank you for sharing how to help us save time in housework. Wishing you more useful videos.

I work for a Leeds firm in the Uk who do allsorts like this. Our lads have been grouting big areas exactly like that for years. Not sure about using plain white though, good luck keeping that clean longer than 5 minutes 🤭

شو الجديد بالموضوع.. في العراق نستعمل هذه الطريقه من عشرات السنين واصلا هذا العمل الصحيح.... تحياتي ليك.. رائع

I haven't even started to watch this yet but man I wish I would have seen this a few years ago whenever I bought my place. I used every cleaning solution I could find, a toothbrush, a wire brush and every other thing I could think of. It's been 8 years and my floors look 90% better but I have recently decided that I am going to paint/stain the grout gray to match my marbled tile a little better. I already tried a swatch and it looks great

Nice job. White grout on a floor is a bold statement

Eso.me.parece normal,nuestro piso tiene feas las juntas y yo había pensado hacer lo mismo.me place saber q si se puede hacer,me parece muy buena la técnica

Amazing work

Wow! 30 years never seen this wow !!!!! Amazing!!!!!! I been cooking for 50 year and did not know that the fry pan has only one handle !!!!so donot feel lonely !!!!!!🫢🤫🔴wow 30 years 🤫

Aqui no Brasil, já existe essa técnica a mais de 30 anos...por tanto não é novidade!

I love to fix thing in the house and I am really glad to found these video ..thanks 👍🏻

Das Video ist sehr hilfreich, das einzige was man nicht nochmals machen sollte und zwar auf dem Boden ein so hellen Farbton auswählen. Beim Laufen und wischen schmiert man den Schmutz wieder in die Fugen,somit entstehen wieder Schattierungen in den Fugen.Man nimmt für den Boden eine dunkle Fuge ,z.B. Zementgrau

If you don’t have a multitool ‘Oscillating multitool’ you’ll love it for all kinds of different projects.

Much easier and cleaner way is to use a piping bag along the joints filling as you go along. After a while, simply use a wide putty filler/knife to clean the now filled joints. Then simply use a clean damp cloth to finish. The way the guy in the video did it is labour intensive and uses so many different tools when all you need really are two.

in high traffic areas, why not use epoxy grout? it never gets dirty

Sou azulejista desde 1986 hoje não trabalho mais sou serralheiro. Algumas técnicas aplicada hoje,eu fazia na época

What’s wrong with just using a regular rubber grout float, so you get to push the grout in and have full consistent joints? Also I would suggest using a regular 3 gallon bucket 🪣 and a margin trowel to mix with and just a regular grout sponge. This method your using takes way to long

Thank you for sharing.my floor tiles are 20 years now.Even I mop everyday w/ floor solution, Still look dirty in between tiles.

Great video

Иностранцы, есть такое вещество, как жидкое стекло , заделали трещины и после полного высыхания наносите жидкое стекло маленькой акварельной кисточкой , жидкое стекло засыхает и больше не грязнится шов .

Excellent way to grout a floor👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾❤️❤️❤️

the easiest way to remove grout is with a cordless grinder with a thin metal cutting blade ! It is a very dusty process so is not suitable for every type of job . The grout shown in this example is far too wet . Being a cement product grout needs to mixed with the minimum of water and should be tooled into the joints . A washboard is the best way to wash off excess grout . The 45^ wipe is the most even way to wash off .

Very informative. Thanks

His videos are ALL Genius!!!

Question, if you seal the grout every year or so with a sealer, wont that keep it from getting discolored? In conjunction with regular floor cleaning of course

Good idea 👍 thank you sir

Otimo video. Que aparelho é esse que tirou o rejunte?

Lol ok.. Don't do this. Grout needs to be worked into the joints by hand. This will prevent voids from forming in the grout lines. It also allows you to see where the grout has filled the joint entirely and where it has not. Work in small areas and batches.. avoid black grout as it is a bitch to clean up. However, if it's a high traffic area black is particle.

When your tile is installed and the grout has cured, seal the grout with a grout sealing product. If done correctly and reapplied often enough, your grout looks like new without stain or flaw for decades. If you do not want to hire a professional to do this, do one section at a time every day off until it is totally completed. Don't expect your hired housekeeper to keep your grout flawlessly clean if it is not properly sealed.

احسن تشرح المواد اللي بتستعملها

A ja robię od 20 lat i nie widziałem profeski ! No i oczywiście takich narzędzi 🥴

Um pedreiro fez isso aqui em casa. E pensa na dificuldade pra limpar os pisos depois. Ficou com o rejunte grudado em todo o piso. Tudo embaçado.

Still have to use an utility knife to remove the edges of the tile. But that power tool is Great.

A DICA é ótima ! 👍Porém, eu vou trocar para rejunte na cor cinza.

انه حقآ رائع

Perfektní nápad...

La tecnica è quella giusta, per avere un risultato ottimale della nuova stuccatura però la pulizia dei vecchi stucchi deve essere eseguita meglio.

Отлично! Great job!

Me encantó muchas gracias, bendiciones.

왜 저 생각을 못했지 창고 구석에 기구들 다 있는데 전문가에게 맞길 생각만 하고 👌 감사해요

Rejunte não fica compactado e mistura muito mole. Tendência de afundamento na secagem do mesmo entre os pisos. Para quem quer qualidade no rejunte não recomendo.

La verdad al fraguar de nuevo puede producirse una aislamiento porque ella viene con lates y la vieja también .tendría una garantía del 50 %

Тоже выпускал такое видео пару лет назад, реноватор для швов это вещь

Em 30 anos ainda usa um método um pouquinho nada prático, mas com muita complicação e sujeira ,há maneira mais rápida e quase sem sujar todo o piso,pra mim não valeu como boa ideia

Ich mache auch seit 30 Jahren Fliesen und ich habs noch nie anders gesehen🤷🏼‍♂️😂 Außer, dass es eigentlich viel schneller geht.

Pero que necesidad de untar junteador a todo el vitro , es más fácil aplicarlo con espátula solo por la ranura , así al limpiarlo es mucho más fácil porque solo limpias a lo largo de la aplicación.

그라우트 본질을 어긋나는 시공법 약간 되지게 게어서 압력으로 밀어 넣어야 하는데 그래서 툴이있는것이고요. 빠르게 하긴 빨리 하겠어요~ 오래가긴 글렀고

Какой смысл с этой шваброй размазывать всю плитку если в конечном результате один хрен на коленках сидеть и отчищать все?

süper siniz bravo emegine sağlık kardeşim

Why use the Squeegee if you still had to get on your knees and use the Float?

No manches eso lo hacemos en México desde hace 30 años que vives en la época de las cabernas

Tambien sale con la vaporeta...ke echa vapor de agua...y lavandina.....un saludo.

Болгаркой с регулировкой оборотов это можно выполнить и обязательно с применением пылесоса!!!

Elinize saglik dersler neden başka renk olmaz hep merak etmişimdir beyaz renk çabuk kirenir koyu yada orta renkler daha kullanışlı olmaz mi

그라이더 날이 신기하네요. 어떤 제품인지 알면 좋을 것 같아요.

No Brasil são tão pertos que nem parece o rejunte, trabalho bem feito . Mas tem casas que não .

Be aware that a multi tool will mark, damage or even chip some types of tiles.

Интересно даже избыток воды в смеси не мешает ей быть прочной после высихания?что за смесь для затирки швов?

Very clear nice job

What did you Usain the water? Thank you ❤

E’ arrivato il Genio della lampada! 👨🏼‍🍳

Класс 👍, но швы надо делать тёмные,белые через полгода уже будут грязные, поэтому напольная плитка всегда должна быть темного цвета. 🇰🇿

0:06 Bu işi ispirale taş kesme diski takarak yapsak olmaz mı?

Onde tem essa ferramenta para tirar rejunte?

Amazing 👏

Can the regrout be done over the old grout? I'm afraid that if we try using the blade, we may destroy the tile. If that's the case, we'll need to hire someone to do it all.

Super Nice! Loved it tk you!

30 ans que vous faites du carrelage et vous n’avez jamais fait de joint, quelque chose m’échappe !!!

Wow good idea. Thanks.

Yup..good job..I do same

I did the grout on my big living room my self like that because the guy who was doing the tile was very irresponsible and took a long time to finish so I had to do the grout my self and that's how I did it.

From the video, I saw some gaps in the grout and I can only imagine how bad they are if I would see it from 6 inches above.

En algún momento me imaginé hacer algo así limpiar con un jalador

Solamente que nomás en puros pisos de mármol también se pueden hacer las líneas perfectamente bien de un octavo de pulgada aunque no se haya tenido mucho cuidado al instalar

Коллеги вы не заметили цветными затирками намного легче затирать чем белым.

Quando pusemos piso em.casa o rejunte usei a mesma técnica. Super fácil, rápido e limpo

Hab ja einfach die Fugen mit Essig und einer harten Bürste geschrubbt. Sah wieder aus wie neu.

Wow amazing beautiful idea 👌✌️ thanks my friend 👍👍👍👍

Is this "cleaning" the grout or replacing the grout? I'm confused

Buen trabajo!!

No ładnie ładnie...👍 Ale co w tym niesamowitego czy nowego to nie wiem... Szkoda że nie pokazał też jak sobie radzi z płatkami w połysku i z 1mm fugą 😜

Занимаюсь плиткой лет 6-7,всё тоже самое уже делал)

Все время, которое удалось выиграть, затирая швы шваброй потратил когда замешивал затирку вручную.

You're amazing.👍😍👍

Question: the tile that's been in the house for the last 50 the grout doesn't crack or chip off ever.. HOWEVER someone install some tile in my house last year and it's cracking already. The floor got wet and it really cracking down. Why is 50 years old grout not cracking at all and 1 year old grout cracking fast?

your doing this the hard way dude

Se põe produto na bisnaga ou garrafa plástica cm tampa fura tampa faz melhor .do q passar em toda cerâmica

You need to clean the tiles first. Otherwise the white cement will be dirty in no time

Хотелось бы посмотреть как он будит вымывать фоктурную плитку )))) после такого способа !

ثلثين عام وماعرفت هاذي التقنية انا من الو اسبوع تعلمته

Solution is to install engineered hard wood floors 😅

Bu yöntemi uygulayabilmek için fayansların gerçekten ustası tarafından terazide döşenmesi gerekir. Aksi takdirde bu yöntem başarısız oluyor

И на сколько это поможет? Белая затирка. На неделю? Две?

Cómo se llama la herramienta con la quita la junta al principio, alguien sabe?
