Re: How to re grout/over grout bathroom shower tile

Hello @RB

 

I recommend re-grouting the whole shower. This will give you a nice uniform finish and your shower will have that brand new look. I will stay with my original recommendation of using the Davco 1.5kg White Sanitized Colourgrout. It can do both partial repairs and full wall re-grouting. 

 

If your grout is starting to fail in sections, it is usually an indicator that the rest of the grout is also starting to fail. I suggest removing all of old gout and give the grout lines a good clean before applying the new one. 

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hi @mich1972

 

Any chance you can post a photo of the grout in your bathroom? Please make sure to post photos of the damaged sections. This will give us a chance to assess the condition of the grout. We can then make recommendations if it needs to be repaired or replaced.
