Grout Repair

Keeping wall and floor tiles looking good is an important job.

If you have spotted a damaged tile, you might be considering grout replacement as part of the repairs. This is a difficult task unless you have the right expertise, so why not call a professional? They will remove or repair the affected tile and replace the grouting, leaving your backsplash, flooring or countertop looking good as new.

Grout repair costs

The cost of repairs such as replacing grout in a shower will depend on several factors, including the size of the area that is affected and what materials are required to complete the job. 

Cost breakdown

Labor

Most tilers have a minimum price they will charge for their labor, often between $100 and $150* per project.

 

Materials

When it comes to paying for the materials, a key factor is what type of tiles you have in your kitchen or bathroom. The cheapest options include ceramic and porcelain, which can range from $0.50 to $15* per square foot, while marble can cost between $5 and $50* per square foot.

 

Maintenance

If you do not have tiles that need repairing and you simply want to keep your grout in good working order, you can pay to have it cleaned for $80 to $250*. 

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes grout to crack?
Cracks sometimes develop due to age, but they can also be caused by problems with installation. For example, if the grout has been mixed with too much water or if too little adhesive is used when applying the tiles to the wall. Cracks may also appear as a result of humidity or even a shift in the foundation of your home. Call a professional, and they will be able to identify the root of the problem.
How much would it cost to re-grout my bathroom?
Re-grouting an entire bathroom costs an average of $411*, but this cost may rise if you have a large bathroom or expensive tiles, made from a material such as marble. 
Is it worth paying for tile grout repair?
Trying to fix problems with grout yourself might only make the problem worse. Cracked grout not only looks unsightly, but it can also allow water to seep into the wall or flooring beneath, leaving you facing more costly repairs in the future.
 What is the best way to keep grout clean?
If you have recently paid for a shower grout repair, you can keep it looking good as new by combining vinegar and baking soda into a paste, applying it to the tiles and leaving it time to work. Then scrub the area with an old toothbrush to leave it looking fresh and clean.
