let's start. Things You Need to Know About Grout


The decision to repair or replace grout is partly subjective, but it usually comes down to the age of the grout and the extent of the damage. Your grout may need repair or replacement for a variety of reasons. It could be that the grout is old.


If the grout is not old, it may have been applied improperly or in an unprofessional manner. Movement of floor tiles is a common cause of grout cracking. Determine the cause of the problem first so you can fix or replace the grout without having to do it again.


Replacing or repairing grout can be a do-it-yourself project. There are many reasons for grout cracking. If the damage is extensive, consider hiring a grout expert. If the grout is old, damaged, or crumbling, it should be replaced.

Grout repair or grout replacement?


Grout that has become discolored or dirty will look lifeless and dull. The good news is that a good scrub with warm water and a household cleaner such as Lithofin KF Grout Protector - 500ml can bring it back to life and, if your tile is in good condition, make it look like new again.


If the problem isn't just dirt, but cracked, chipped, or missing grout lines, you'll need to remove the grout and then repair or replace it. It's no longer just a matter of looks. Broken grout lines are ineffective as a vapor barrier, allowing water from the shower or sink to seep behind the tile. The end result will be loose or even falling tiles, as well as mold growth.


You may not need to replace all of your grout, which is great news. To determine the extent of damage, carefully inspect the tile surface. Repairing grout will be an easy task of an hour or two if limited to a small area. However, if you need a more extensive grout replacement, you may want to hire a tile specialist from a trusted resurfacing company like Dr Stone Australia.
