You just moved into the home you purchased where the tile floor has old, worn and discolored grout. What are your options?
Grout over grout?
It is not the optimum choice. While it’s possible to apply new grout over existing grout, the results are usually less than satisfactory. Since the layer of new grout would be very thin and vary in thickness, it may not adhere well and the old grout could show through.
Remove the grout and DIY re-grout
Removing grout from a tile floor is not nearly as difficult as it used to be. Inexpensive oscillating and rotary tools are available with grout removal attachments that can make quick and effortless work of removing old grout.
Once you’ve removed the old grout, vacuum up any remaining loose grout and dust before applying new grout to the tile. Use a sponge and clean water to remove any excess grout or grout haze on the tile.
Hire a company to clean the grout
Tile and grout look amazing when brand new but can quickly turn dull and lifeless without proper care and cleaning. Whether you have Ceramic, Porcelain, or a natural stone, professional grade cleaning products and equipment are the best and safest way to bring shine back to the tile and brighten the grout as if it was new!
Once professionally cleaned, it is highly recommended to use sealing products which is the best way to maintain your tile floors in between professional cleanings.
Don’t spend hours or days scrubbing your tile flooring and grout with caustic cleaning products.
