    Unhappy Excel Bond Flexible Wide Joint Limestone - help!

    Hi All

    Long time reader, first time poster

    We had someone come and tile our kitchen over a year ago, and we need to tile a few areas more, ajoining the original tiling. The grout he used previously was Excel Bond Flexible Wide Joint Limestone. I can not for the life of me find anyone local who stocks it...

    Any ideas welcome - its the colour match we are really after....

    Please help. Been scouring the t-interweb all yesterday and the only references I could find were here.

    Hope you tiling gurus can help ...or suggest an alternative.

    Thanks

    why not see if stores can give you a colour chart or sample or their limestone grout. I'm sure limestone grouts cant be that far off each other.

    After a year even if you put the same grout down it will be a slightly different shade
