Epoxy grouting
Stain- and chemical-resistant grout for demanding areas.
Overview
Epoxy grout is a resin-based grout that resists water, staining and chemicals far better than cement grout. It's the right choice for commercial kitchens, changing rooms, food areas and busy swimming pools.
What we do
- Epoxy grouting of new tiling
- Raking out and regrouting existing commercial tiling in epoxy
- Commercial kitchens and food production areas
- Changing rooms, showers and wet areas
- Swimming pools through our pool division, PoolRevive
What to know
Why epoxy?
It doesn't absorb liquids, so it resists staining, bacteria and chemical attack, and it stays looking cleaner for longer.
Cost and time
Epoxy costs more and takes longer to install than cement grout, so it's best used where the extra performance is needed.
Curing
Epoxy needs time to cure before heavy use or water. In pools, we allow 7 days before refilling.
How we work on site
Epoxy grout has a short working time, so we mix in small batches and clean off as we go to leave a clean, even finish.
- We keep dust down with vacuums and dust extractors and clean up as we go.
- We protect finished work and surrounding areas, and leave the site clean and tidy every day.
- We work evenings, nights and weekends when a programme or opening hours call for it.
- Both of us are enhanced DBS checked, hold CSCS cards and are trained in COSHH, manual handling, abrasive wheels and asbestos and silica awareness.

Common questions
Is epoxy grout worth it?
In kitchens, wet areas and pools, usually yes. In dry corridors and offices, a good cementitious grout is normally fine.
Can existing cement grout be replaced with epoxy?
Yes. The old grout is raked out, the joints are cleaned, and the epoxy is installed.
Is epoxy grout worth the extra cost?
In wet, food, clinical and heavy-use areas it usually is, because it resists stains, chemicals and water and lasts far longer than cement grout.
Can epoxy grout be used on existing tiles?
Yes. The old grout is raked out to a good depth and replaced with epoxy.
