“It is very ANNOYING as our new tiles are left with tiny DIRTY SPOTS. We do not know why. We could not remove them.” “I saw a lot of BUBBLES on the TILE JOINTS. They undermine the surface of our floors.” “Some DARK LINES are sticking on our bathroom mosaic tiles.” These are the SOS messages from our clients when they ask for HELP from our tiling services. The problems, they face, seem irrelevant. ACTUALLY, it is FAULTY GROUT that caused their annoyings: shaded or splotchy grout, uneven joints or scratched-out grout. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Quite a few of our clients have no ideas about grout, until our tilers ask them about the type and color of the grout they would like to apply for their tiles. Let’s start with: What is tile grout? There are two basic types of tile grouts: sanded and un-sanded. Which one you use depends on the width of joints. Specifically, un-sanded grout is recommended for <4mm grout joint and Sanded grout used for =>4mm grout joint. Remember: sanded grout is rougher and harder to clean. Besides, there is one more special grout: epoxy grout – the most stain-resistant. There are various grout colors (mapei: 51 and ardex: 36), which satisfy all your tiling needs, tile sizes and colors. So, how to remove bad or faulty grout? You need a snap-off knife, so buy one at a local store if you don’t have any. You will use the knife to scrape away faulty grout from tiles joints. This process needs doing gently. Be cautious: knife blade might cause chips to tiles. Then, you carefully vacuum the grout dust and use dry cloth to clean surface surround grout joint. After removing the faulty grout, you need to move to the preparation of the grout.
