How to Choose a Grout Color

If your home needs a refresh, you might not have to do extensive renovations or projects to get it looking different or “new.” Believe it or not a change to the color of the grout can completely transform the look of a room and your home, whether it’s in the kitchen, bathroom, pool, or other another room or space in your home.

Grout has many purposes; it locks titles together, it fills in spaces between stone and tiles, it prevents edges of tiles from chipping and cracking. However, it also adds to the design of a room. The color of a grout can change the whole look and feel of the room.

The color should be selected with a purpose in mind; it should not be an afterthought. People have many options with the color – they can match the color to the tile, they can contrast it with the tile, or go with a neutral color. Each one of these choices can create a different look for a room.

By matching the color to the tile, the grout line doesn’t show much giving the walls or floor a more seamless, fluid look; the room will look very sleek. If you want your tile to stand out, contrast the grout color with the tile. With this option, the grout frames and highlights the tile. Many people choose a neutral color (gray, beige, tan); this is considered a “safe” choice for a color; neutral is not bold and the color matches different styles and colors of tile and everything else in the room.
