    Tile grout coming loose
    Hi All,
    I had all floors in my house tiled with porceline tiles 5 years ago, the grout was getting rather tired looking and a couple of areas were cracking so we gor a tiler to remove the old grout and replace it ( bad mistake ). The job looked fine but after about 4 weeks the grout has started to come loose all over the floors. Does anyone have any suggestions to why this is happening.

    My guess is the tiles have now become loose and have movement in them due to the vibration of the tiles groutin tool.ks in advance

    Can you buy a grout with a added adhesive that would stop it coming loose ?

    Than
