Question 3

What are the different types of grout?

Accepted Answer

Sanded and unsanded grout are the most common types of grout. They're cement grouts. Other grout types include epoxy grout and furan resin grout. Epoxy grout is used to set shower and floor tile, as it's waterproof and resistant to cleaning chemicals. Furan is used in industrial settings more often than in homes.

Question 4

What is the difference between epoxy grout and cement grout?

Accepted Answer

Cement and epoxy grouts have different strengths, application times, uses and looks. Epoxy has a stronger bond than cement, but you must apply it fast and clean it up immediately. Cement grout doesn't set as quickly, so you have more time to clean up the excess. Epoxy grout is a better choice in wet environments like showers, as it's waterproof. Regular cement grout must be sealed to keep out water because it's absorbent without it. Epoxy and furan resin grouts look like plastic, while cement grouts look like stone.

Question 8

Is grout waterproof?

Accepted Answer

Epoxy grout is waterproof by nature and doesn't need to be sealed. Neither type of cement grout is waterproof. To keep out water from absorbing into unsanded grout and sanded grout, seal it to make it water-resistant. Sealing also helps prevent staining from cleaning products, hair dyes, colored shampoos and conditioners, or cosmetics.

Question 9

How long does grout take to dry?

Accepted Answer

Grout takes 24 to 72 hours to dry. It can be affected by the humidity in the room and how much water is in the grout, too. For best results, read the manufacturer's instructions on the grout package. Follow those directions closely for a strong and durable bond. Don't disturb the tiles until the grout is completely dry. This helps prevent cracks. Also, avoid walking on floor tiles before the grout has cured.

Question 10

Is it necessary to seal grout?

Accepted Answer

Cement grout, including sanded and unsanded grout, should be sealed. This helps the grout resist water, stains and mildew. It also makes it last longer and less likely to chip out. Epoxy grout doesn't need to be sealed because it's already waterproof, but you can if you'd like extra protection.

Question 11

What is grout used for?

Accepted Answer

Grout fills the space between tiles. It helps bond the tiles together and keeps water from seeping between them, weakening the tile bond. The type of grout you need depends on how much room is between tiles, where the tile is located and what the tile is made of. Altering the width or color of grout changes the look of a tile project.
