What is a Grout

Grout is an especially fluid form of concrete used in all manner of construction projects to fill holes and plug openings. In terms of kitchen remodeling, a homeowner's most likely usage for grout is in the application of tiling to the walls or floor of the room. The material is used to fill spaces between tiles once they've been applied to their desired surface, a step that enhances the cohesion of the tiling and contributes to its security. If you plan on grouting your own tiling, be certain to get the right variety of the material. Because grout is used in a wide variety of applications, specialized formulations of it have been created in order to best serve those applications. The composition of tile grout, for example, makes it the best choice for any tiling you might do within your home.
