Grouting in construction is the technique of filling gaps, spaces, or seams between two materials, such as stones, tiles, marbles, and so on. There are many types of tile grouts. Choosing the right grout is an essential step in every tiling project. With a variety of options available, such as Cement Grout, Advanced Performance Grout, Epoxy Grouting, and Premixed Grout – it is important to know which product is right for your job.

We use tiling grout to fill spaces between tiles. Also, it aids in the securement of the tile to its base and functions as a sealant to keep moisture out of joints:
Cement-based non-sanded grout remains suitable for use on tile surfaces. It remains dry when you place the grout. Also, it commonly finds use in smaller tile joints.
Sanded grout, which is a cement-based mortar with minute sand grains added to aid the setting and give a stronger grout, is commonly used in larger joints. It should first be tested to ensure that the sand does not scratch the tile.
Epoxy grouting material is water-resistant and doesn’t need to be sealed after installation. It also inhibits the growth of microorganisms and minimizes cracking. When tiles are exposed to a lot of water, chemicals, or oil, this sort of grout is perfect. It comes in both sanded and unsanded forms.
