Just when you see the light at the end of the tunnel, the bulb blows.

The client wants burgundy coloured grout the bathroom is emperador dark marble! (it was at this point I thought about lieing down in the powershower and make believe this was all a bad dream).

Has anyone got any suggestions?

isnt marronne brown? lol

it wasnt a plain brown it had a good deep colour to it,,maybe i spilled my red wine in it thet my inlaws were feeding me

just had to check looks quite brown to me on the sticks sure you don't mean 143 which has a touch more red in it?

By me just checking I have found my mapei case to have been vandalised by someone, questions will be asked tomorrow

I showed her the Mapei grout selection folder, she said no, this is after doing 4 sample areas of diff coloured grouts.

I had to walk of site, for a walk around the block, or Id have lost it big time.

your right cr,it does look plain brown,,and yes im sure it was the 143 terracota i used...oops it was still nice....dear o dear its only wednesday

If anybody from Mapei is reading this i'd like to suggest that 110 and 111 are renumbered and swapped around so that the light shade is first in the colour chart, it messes with my chi. That's all i have to say

Deep breaths my friend - in through the nose, out through the mouth

Unfortunately for you - she's the boss

Just tell her if it's not in the Mapei box, you can't get it. If she wahts to sorce the colour she wants herself, you'll gladly use it

I like your thinking Merle I will put on my stupid blank face, say I havent got a clue... and if that fails have a cat fight with her in the swimming pool.

At the end of the day, if it's not available from Mapei, she'll not find anything else
