Grout is an integral part of tiling, creating a protective barrier between the tile and the wall. Unfortunately, grout can be subject to cracking and crumbling due to extreme temperatures, moisture buildup, or even just general wear and tear. Grout cracking isn’t just unsightly – it’s also a potential source of water damage if left untreated.
Fortunately, fixing cracked grout is relatively simple and easy. First, use a grout saw or utility knife to carefully cut away any loose chunks of grout from between the tiles. After that, you’ll need to mix up some fresh grout using either sanded or non-sanded material depending on your particular situation. You can then spread the new grout over the old using an applicator bottle before wiping off any excess with a damp cloth or sponge.
