Anything specific to look out for when grouting? Right now, we consistently use Ardex but we recently discovered KERAKOLL an italian bround that is Eco focused, they have created a formula that is eco-friendly, and a naturally breathable alternative, there colour range is also Incredible!! 6.
There is no wrong or right, just a preference to the end-user. The same tile with smaller grout spaces vs the same with larger grout spaces can have a completely different outcome. There are no hard rules, it is completely dependent on the overall look and feel that the end-user wants. Is there a general rule of thumb with how wide your grout space should be when using zellige/cement/terazzo/stone etc? So I would say this comes down to personal preference and the look and aesthetic you are striving for.Ĥ. We created some really unique and exciting patterns by using 5 - 10 mm grout lines. Traditionally speaking, grout space is really minor - anywhere between 1- 3mm thick - however, we have recently played around and experimented with grout spacing. Generally speaking, we believe that zellige tiles shine when there are minimal grout lines. As long as you maintain your tile and grout consistently, your grout will remain cleaner for longer and dirty grout should not be a problem. Choosing the right grout for your tiles is the way to go. When the grout is darker than the tile, it tends to look dirty. Dark grout to hide stains and dirt - yes or no? Leave the grout spaces thin to not draw attention away from the zellige tiles.Ģ. I always choose, and always recommend choosing grout colors that are a tonal match to the tile or a tone lighter. Zellige tiles are so beautiful and should be the hero in every space draw focus to the tiles rather than the grout. My advice is to let the mosaic truly shine, not the grout. Do you have any advice on grout choice? We would hate to do anything to the detriment of these bespoke tiles. Zellige tiles are obviously a form of art. We sat down with Tiles of Ezra founder and director, Georgia, to pick her brain on everything we need to know when it comes to grouting.ġ. That's great! Cue the realization that you actually know sweet-diddly-squat when it comes to tiling and grouting the bespoke tiles you just splurged your salary on and you have yourself a problem. So, you've finally taken the plunge and purchased the dream tiles you've been eyeing out for months.
