Wash boy recommendations - Tile Advice

I’ve always been bucket and sponge bloke but with two very large floors coming up I’m wondering if there are any advantages in purchasing a wash boy. If yes, any particular brand?

wouldn't be without mine. For the sake of 20 quid for a genesis one from ctd why would you not, so much easier and quicker

had one of those before Albert and just kept the metal drain plate when the bucket broke,
I think you can buy them separate

Hi guys. Thanks for the thumbs up on using a wash boy. Got a cheap one from Topps only because I had some points to spend and used it to grout 26 square metres yesterday. Im not often gobsmacked but what the hell have I been doing for the past 20 years with a bucket and sponge? Suffice to say Im a little embarrassed I hadn't used one before. The amount of time I saved coupled with the evenness of the grout lines is brilliant.

Buy the squeezeasy one, it’s over £100 but the best I’ve used for getting the sponges properly squeezed.
