If you have decided to pick tile flooring for your home, you couldn’t have picked a more durable choice. There is a reason that many people in the Vegas Valley choose to put tile flooring throughout their house. It’s easy to clean, cool on your feet and offers a beautiful, polished look. When it comes to choosing the right tile, there is something that many people haven’t put much though into and that’s the grout. Choosing the right grout is important when it comes to keeping it clean. Silver State Floor Restoration is here to share some tips to help you choose the right grout that will be easier to keep clean.
Different Grout Options
When you are making the grout selection for your tile flooring, there are two main choices you have to choose from uniform and contrast. If you want the grout to blend in with the tile that you have chosen, or the tile has a strong pattern on it, you may want to choose a uniform grout that is a similar color that to the tile. If you are wanting the grout to stand out with a unique tile layout, choosing a contrasting grout will help you achieve that look.
Choosing Easiest to Clean Grout Color
One thing that everyone should think about when they are choosing the grout for their flooring is cleaning. Dirt, grime and debris often get stuck in the grout because the surface is so porous. When you choose white grout, the debris that gets stuck in it will often show up extremely easily. However, choosing a black or extremely dark grout can be just as difficult to keep clean because dust will pile up on it. Choosing a grout color that is somewhere in between those two will be easier to keep clean than any of the extremes on both the light and dark ends of the color spectrum.
Importance of Sealing Grout
If you have tile flooring, it is always a good idea to have the grout sealed. No matter how careful you are, there are bound to be spills that happen. When your grout is sealed, you don’t have to worry nearly as much about staining occurring in your grout lines. Sealing makes this porous surface not as porous and capable of allowing debris to settle in.
