Tile as well as shower regrouting has been acknowledged as the most impressive way of transforming the looks of a bathroom. At the same time, this has also been a very useful method to make the shower area strong all over again and immune from any kind of water leakage. In 99 percent cases, it would be recommended to get tiles and shower regrouting done by the experts, but this is also a fact that DIY can be used. However, the problem with DIY is that it is going to be very time-consuming process, plus the results all will not be that great.

You can follow these steps to regrout your tiles and showers and these are the steps that generally shower regrouting experts take in their process.

Step 1

Select The Grout Colour

• The first thing they do is selecting the right grout colour for the area that they want to regrout.

• If the entire area or say the entire bathroom has to be regrouted, the colour choice would be complex.

• In such situations, they will make sure that the colour of the grout matches the colour of the tiles.

• However, if regrouting has to be done only on a small part of the bathroom, in that case, they will make sure that the colour of new grout matches the colour of the older grout.

Step 2

Remove The Old Grout

• Once the colour is chosen, the second step would be to set the area free from the older grout and they will do this with the help of grout saw or utility knife.

• Older grout would surely be hard to remove and to confront the challenge of removing it safely; they will use elbow grease as this will simplify the process significantly.

• At the time of grout removal, immense care has to be taken to make sure that the tiles around the shower area particularly don’t get damaged.

Step 3

Clean The Tiles

• It would take time to remove the grout and once done, their third step would involve cleaning the tiles

• This can be done very easily with the help of a vacuum cleaner.

• This step will set the area clean and totally free from debris and minute dust particles.

• If you are doing this through DIY, you can use a household cleaner or mixture of water and cleaning detergent to clean the tiles and around the shower area.

Step 4

Mix/Apply The Grout

• As far as mixing and applying the grout for shower regrouting, shower regrouting experts too recommend following the steps mentioned on the box.

• The most prevailing method of mixing grout involves mixing the grout with latex because this will make it resistant to wear and tear and some sort of waterproof as well.

• In terms of application, the experts of shower Repair services will use a float for shower regrouting and push the new grout firmly between the tiles.

• They will also distribute extra grout into the grout joints in order to fill them completely.

• Once finished filling the spaces with grout, they will use the float again to remove the excess grout from the tile floor around the shower area.
