Removing Grout

jools · 30 Jun 2004

Is there an easy way to remove grout from tiles? I didn't seal the new plaster (doh) and all my tiles are loose and I want to avoid the expense of replacing them all and starting again!

If your tiles are loose then re-grouting will not solve the problem, sorry.

Hi there
They're not loose, I'm just not sure if using power tools is the right thing to do. I've heard about specific bits for grout removal... Do you know about them?

I know I must have replied to at least three threads about grout removal tools. Search the forum.

Or get someone to search for you.

Along a similar subject, I'm doing some victorian floor tiles at the moment and need to rake out the adhesive where it's bled through the joints. A normal grout rake is a bit on the big side for this and I was looking at getting a dremel type tool to grind it out. Does anyone know whether these dremels come with cutting/grinding discs that will do the job. The discs will have to be fairly fine as the joints are only 2mm.

Thanks in anticipation.
