Grout Stain, Your Questions Answered

The Grout Medic receives many questions about grout stain.

As long-standing grout care and repair professionals, we would like to take this opportunity to answer some common grout stain questions all in one place.  It’s simple to perform a search online for information concerning changing your grout color, but often times the answers you find are erroneous or out-dated.  The most common question homeowners ask is whether they can do the job instead of hiring a professional.  And while there are various products and tutorials available, we highly recommend hiring a professional grout stain company.

Can you stain grout a different color?

The Grout Medic can stain your healthy grout a different color.

Yes, grout color can be changed a little or a lot, depending on your preference.  The Grout Medic performs custom color staining for any type of tile, on any tiled surface.

Is grout color staining the same as color sealing?

Yes, these terms can be used interchangeably.  Grout color stain is also a color sealant, which penetrates into your grout’s pores to improve or completely change the color of your grout.  This service not only enhances your grout color, but it protects your grout from staining, as well.

Does grout stain work on epoxy grout?

Yes, there are specially formulated color stains that can change the color of epoxy grout.  Epoxy grout is not as porous as cement based grout products, so we recommend consulting a professional to ensure whether your grout is a good candidate for color staining.

Must my grout be cleaned before grout stain can be applied?

The end result of any grout improvement service will greatly rely on preparation.  Grout must be thoroughly cleaned before any color staining or clear grout sealing service.  If color staining is applied to dirty grout, the color will not look great, nor will the stain properly penetrate the surface of your grout for a long-lasting result.
