Remove Old Grout and Re-Grout

**tay1974** · 11-02-2009

Hi Everyone,

I have been asked to quote a local health club to remove the old grout from the mens and ladies changing/shower rooms and re-grout. The total area is approx 100 sq m.

Has anyone removed grout from this size of area before? What tools would you recommend for this type of job?

Thanks?

PS. Any idea on prices for this type of job?

If its floors i would use the makita tile saw that Tradetiler sells, take to long with a fein.

Well i have had to do it with a stanley knife and plastic grout scraper but not 100sq m. If u got the money get a Bosch Multi-X tool or something like that and a few diomand cutter blades for it, but they are bout £30 for each blade.

The customer has asked for two quotes, one to remove the old grout and replace with new, and the second quote to remove all tiles and re-tile.

They want the walls and floor done.

Thanks
