Re: prep for grouting

Hello @angelique5 

 

If you are planning to regrout your shower area, I suggest using a Multi Tool with a grout blade attached. I suggest covering all the appliances in the bathroom with painters drop sheet and securing it with masking tape. This will prevent the grout dust from going everywhere in the bathroom. Once you've finished removing the grout, I recommend cleaning the surface and removing the grout dust from the tile gaps. 

 

Once the tile walls are ready, you can then begin to regrout your tiled bathroom.

 

Here is a handy step-by-step guide: How to grout tiles

 

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
