Regrouting Ceramic tile: Tile has a very long life expectancy, but the grout, over time, will eventually deteriorate. The tile may still be near perfect but the grout is either missing, cracked, soft, mildewed or discolored.

Procedure for regrouting

Clean tub/shower walls to make sure there is nothing on the tile to mix in with the new grout
Remove the existing caulk from around the tub and corners
Remove existing grout from around the tiles (all walls from top to bottom) never partial areas
Install new grout
Buff and Polish walls
Caulk the tub, corners, soapdish and faucet

Wall Repairs for Loose Tiles or Leaking Walls: If you have tiles that are "soft", "loose" or "leaking," wall repair is the best option for you. Below are some of the results of "believe it or not", bad grout. Water cannot penetrate the tiles. The only place water can get through is the grout. That is why it is so important to keep your tub and shower walls clean, dry and to use the right cleaners.

Procedures for repairs

Remove all the loose tiles in the repair area
Make sure the wall behind is not damaged. If it is, replace with new "green" board
Clean the same tiles that were taken off and reset them back in place
Followed with the same procedure for regrouting

Caulking: Mildewed caulking is unsightly and unsanitary. It can also allow water to leak into the walls. The most common problem is at the point between the bathtub and tile or shower floor and walls. If these joints are not fixed in a timely manner, great damage to the sructure can occur. Mr. Grout will remove the old caulk and replace with a new bead of mildew resistant caulk.

Sealing: When regrouting tub/shower-walls a sealer can be applied which creates an invisable barrier against staining, moisture, calcium and soap scum buildup.

Floor Grout Colorant (floors): Mr . Grout uses a color-pigmented water borne epoxy grout sealer chemically engineered to penetrate and form a high-strength bond to non-sanded and sanded grout. It recolors, seals and rejuvenates existing grout joints.

Floor Grout coloring (staining): Benefits: Grout coloring is the ultimate way to seal your grout. Using a grout colorant to seal your grout instead of a clear sealer is the best way to keep your grout looking the way you wanted when you first installed the grout.

Grout colorants are perfect for fixing mistakes in grout imperfections, such as:

The grout was improperly mixed
The grout has been darkened over time
The grout you just can't get clean anymore

Benefits:

The grout can be changed to 28 different colors if you wish to have a whole new look
Grout colorant protects grout from hard water and discoloration and spills
It will make your pre-existing grout as completely uniform in color as possible
Grout coloring can restore your grout back to its original color while protecting it from everyday wear and tear
Grout coloring can resist pet urine stains and odors
A grout coloring can bring life back into your grout and the look of your tiles
Grout colorants are the alternative to expensive regrouting costs, or a complete tear up

Floor Grout Sealing: Sealer should only be used on new or very clean floor grout. The sealer Mr. Grout uses is a premium, no sheen, natural-look, water bourne epoxy penetrating sealer formulated to provide maximum stain protection.

Think about it

When people move into homes that were previously lived in, they think of cleaning the oven, refrigerator, carpets and applying a fresh coat of paint. But what about the germs that are harboring in the grout lines, or on the tiles in your shower? The existing mold and mildew or soapfilm?

New Homeowners who have jus purchased their home, should consider cleaning and regrouting tubs/shower walls and cleaning / staining and sealing floor grout.
