Grouting Tile – More Tips to Improve Your Tile Finish
Grouting can be a rewarding task if the right set of tools and equipment are made use of with the right grout mix and application technique. Following are the top tips to avoid some common pitfalls that can lead to grouting disasters, and to obtain a perfect tile finish.
- Clean the Joints: A knife or a blade can be used to scrape between the joints to remove any dirt or build-up. This will make the grout settle better and last longer.
- Choose the Right Type of Grout: There are two main types of grout, namely, sanded and unsanded. Sanded grout is used for joints larger than 1/8 inch in width. This type of grout is mixed with fine sand and is suitable for filling larger joints to avoid any shrinking or cracking. On the other hand, unsanded grout is used for narrower joints.
- Ensure the Right Mix: It is important to get the grout in the right consistency.
- Get the Grout to ‘Slake’: A pro tip is to let the mixture ‘slake’ (rest) for five minutes. This ensures perfect bonding of the materials and will be less prone to cracking.
- Work Section-Wise: It is important to work in smaller sections across your tiled surface. This will ensure an easier grout cleaning task. Mix new batches of grout every half hour after the first section. This will give enough time to clean the first, and by that time, the second section will be ready for cleaning.
- Using the Right Set of Tools: These include a pro hydrophilic sponge, a micro fibre towel, a grout float, a proper sealant, for a proper finish.
