What is a Washboy?

Traditionally grout cleaning tools for tiles or slabs, comprised of a simple bucket and a large sponge, that were used to clean up grout that has been pointed into tile joints. The development of washboys & pedalos have completely revolutionised grouting, saving tilers and landscapers time and money, enabling them to complete projects faster and more efficiently. What's more, because of the hand held plastic float with sponge, and the rollers attached to the bucket, there is also no longer any need to get hands wet and dirty, ensuring a cleaner job all round.

Simply put, a washboy allows a tiler to increase their speed when grouting and ensures that a perfect clean up is achieved.

How do I use a washboy?

A wash-boy like the Tile Rite Professional Tilers Washboy Set is simple to use, you just:

1. Apply the grout to the tiles or slabs as normal
2. Fill the professional washboy with clean water approximately 20-30mm above the separation grid
3. Submerge the sponge float into the clean water
4. Push the sponge horizontally across the triple rollers to remove excess water, making sure non spills over the edge onto your tiles
5. Move the sponge in horizontal motion across the tiles and grouted joints to clean off excess grout
6. Rub the sponge across the metal separation grid to remove any excess grout (the grout will come off the sponge and settle at the bottom of the bucket underneath the separation grid.
7. Following this process above, leaves clean water above the separation grid to continue to clean your sponge each time you dunk your sponge into the bucket to clean the grout off
8. Continue to repeat the above process from step three until the surface is clean, making sure that you change the water regularly

Why should I buy a washboy?

We recommend washboys because they make projects faster (save up to 40% time compared with traditional cleaning with a hose and water), cleaner and more efficient. However, like a lot of professional tools it is often very difficult to justify the the initial cost until you can start to see the benefits. With the Tile Rite Professional Tilers Wash Boy Set it's much more economical than many of the other professional washboys on the market - and so much more than just a bucket and sponge, especially when you take into consideration the amount of time that you will save by using one, it doesn't take a long time for the wash-boy to pay for itself. You may even want two!
