A question we sometimes get asked is “Does my pool really need re-grouting?” well It depends on a few things:
- Does your pool keep going green?
- Do you have lots of black lines where the grout was/should be?
- Are you getting black spots?
- Is your pool becoming a problem?
Most of us don’t have these problems, but if you do and you have large areas of missing grout, then your swimming pool may need looking at.
Where the grout is missing algae spores will start to form on the lovely porous concrete under the tiles ( algae loves porous surfaces), this is why if left too long you will see black areas in your swimming pool.

It’s also possible that the pH in your water is too low (below 6.8) and literally eating away at the grout. Keep an eye on your pH and don’t let it drift below 7.0. If you have an automatic pH controller, check the pH manually occasionally as the sensors have a life-span of around two years (although they can last longer), leave it unchecked and you could find yourself needing a re-grout.
If you think maybe your swimming pool needs a re-grout or would like a full appraisal of your swimming pool and it’s system, just give us a call.
