joe90 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Dear all, floor tiles are down and about to grout ( when the temperature rises enough that the water is not frozen?) can anyone recommend a good grout sealer, I would rather pay for a good product that does a good job. ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizzie Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I have porcelanosa tiles and grout. I asked them about a sealer and they said their grout didnt need it...I so hope they are right there is mud everywhere at the mo despite the floor being mostly covered in antinox mats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe90 Posted March 2, 2018 Author Share Posted March 2, 2018 Thanks Lizzie, yes our grout is charcoal ( mud coloured) but I would hate it to get stained after all the hard work getting it to look good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToughButterCup Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Ah yes @joe90, I remember you really love gritty, grotty grout don't you? Surprised you aren't covering everything with bathboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lizzie Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I am very worried about my floor grout. I am very particular about grout, dirty stained grout is a very big no no for me.............. mud and muck has got in around antinox mats and builders are in and out in muddy boots and not now taking as much care as they really should I fear....not a good combo for pale beige grout but I cant be there 24/7 to watch them! I asked at Porcelanosa if there would be problem cleaning it up and they said no it should clean up......I am not convinced and won't know until I start to clean the floor up. Question - if dirty best way to clean it? Mechanical scrub, bleach????? Hopefully when cleaned up then just put sealer on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully when cleaned up then just put sealer on? I have pale cream grout too (big mistake with dogs). When I asked the tile shop about the best way to clean it they sold me this which was ace. The dirt just lifted out with no effort and wiped clean. I have tried other things but this has been the easiest so far. Last time however I didn't have any and resorted to thin bleach and a small brush. Was a lot more labour intensive but it did do the trick. I resealed the grout afterwards but it's an uphill battle in truth. I'm sure that the bleach affects the colour but as my grout was so light there didn't seem to be any difference. Mine are ceramic so do check the compatibility of anything you use. Edited March 3, 2018 by newhome 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
