Finally, someone who got to the point and demonstrated as he spoke instead of 2 minutes of uselessness and then a weak demonstration. This is the video I needed.
Yeah, they were made for a different time, one such as TV where air time is expensive. TH-cam on the other hand, we have people trying to stretch a 1 minute video into a 10 minute video for more ad revenue
I say this from the bottom of my heart, thank you and God bless you and so many others like you for posting DIY videos on TH-cam. I have learned soooo much from experts and you have all saved me so much time and money on my household projects. with all that's sideways in this world, there is so much more good an surely this is no small part of that
Excellent Video!! PEOPLE do not be afraid of taking on this task. It's not very difficult, just be careful and take your time. You will get the feel for how the grout flows and sets as you do this and it will get easier as you go. Also Don't be afraid to mix your own grout if it's powder. Just wanted to share some encouragement🙂
I think this video demonstrates ‘how to’ on two levels. How to fix grout, & how to make an instructional video on TH-cam. 😉 Thanks for an awesome video on both.
Best video I have seen on the subject . I like how you don’t have your back to us and you are showing us an example on a flat surface. You get straight to the point ! I feel confident about doing mine now. Thanks for the very “clear”, no nonsense video !!!😃
I so needed this video Ron. I’ve moved into a new house with dirty old grout tile. So if I can’t get it clean I will refresh it. Looks easy and something I can do myself. Thank you👍🏼
Ron! I’m elated to have found your channel. I have early memories of my dad watching your channel and I just want to thank you for all you do! 10/10 immaculate vibes
My man! This video is perfection because it looks like it was recorded during a time when people took pride in their work and weren’t focused on just clicks and likes.
I needed this. I’ve scrubbed and scrubbed, and can get the grout looking better, but not to the original color. I’ve wondered if there was a tool like this, and voila! There is. Thanks so much. I’m saving your video.
I would add one step, use a heavy duty disinfectant to kill any mold or mildew after you scrape! This was you don't have any growing underneath your new grout, otherwise the grout sealer will make it impossible to clean as it would seal over top and it will still show! Thanks for sharing
That golden brown hue actually matched these tiles better than white! 😁 but seriously, thanks for the tips. You demystified it enough for me to give it a go. 😊 Whether I’ll have the stamina to do:the whole bathroom remains to be seen! 😁. Thank you 🙏
Same here. I have been looking at so many options. This will hold me over until I save enough to get a new countertop. I’ve been resisting since I saw this about a year ago lol
Fantastic! I missed this grout saw step and each time I went to touch up the excess just eroded off the top leaving it the way it was before. It was good if I got a chip out since it filled the hole, but the rest just came back like it was before.
Thank your sir old video still helpful going to re grout my old sink with tiles around it , I’ve been gathering prep tools 🛠️ instead paying someone $2k no thanks!!
mix a baking soda paste and spread over the grout and allow to sit for a while. It will remove staining also. Id try that before Id try and scrape out the grout but this is a good idea if that didnt work as good as you want it.
Excellent video. Will definitely try. I have the exact tiles but mines are a lil scratched and scuffed. Any tips on how to bring back the shine? Thank you in advance
I wish I had seen this 35 years old ago when we moved into a solid built older house. Really big enough for 4 children. 3 full baths and kitchen have white grout that needed regrouting since we moved in. I’m gonna do this. I just didn’t know there was such an easy solution.
I have 650 sq feet of gross grout to deal with. I will do this on a weekend instead of deep cleaning and using grout paint. I wasn't sure if i could scrape the grout like that, thanks for the green light!
Hi Ron, Thanks for such a good video for "Refreshing Tile Grout". I am ready to try your method but have a concern. We bought the house over 10 yrs ago and I believe the Tile is Natural Stone. My Shower tile is 6" square, however the Tile surface is NOT perfectly flat. There are "Divers and pockets" on the surface, where I am concerned about applying new grout on the tile. I will try to attach a photo. Do you have a method for Refreshing the grout with this type of tile. The grout lines are 1/8" to 1/4" wide?
Thank-you! So informative!!!! Can I do this but use a different color? The existing grout is nice but maroonish in color...would like to change it to a neutral!
All my floors are grade 5 commercial white porcelain tile, I mop it every week and periodically use an older machine that scrubs floors and has wheels for applying wax to wood floors which I dont use, but the brushes do a great job cleaning the grout and tile. My kitchen counter is made up of many 3" square Talavera tiles of different colors and designs, I use a scrub brush and sponge on that
Haben sie den alten fugenmörtel mit einem selbstgebastelten Instrument sauber gemacht? Oder kann man das kaufen? Ich bin eine Frau und habe keine Ahnung, muss aber eine solche Arbeit vollbringen. Wie also gestalte ich womit ein solches Instrument? LG Angelika
I used hydrogen peroxide and bicarbonate of soda mix and a toothbrush. Seriously doubted it would work but it did. Try a test patch to see. Grout looks like new.
I need to replace my Bathroom Faucets and spout. On the backside is a tiled wall is there anyway I can remove the tile and grout from a square section of it without destroying the whole wall. The person who built this wall did not put an area to get to it from the backside...But on the otherthand you solved my other problem I use to breed dogs and that room has a tiled floor I think I will try your idea as no matter how much I mop and other things there is still a faint odor from thr urine in the grout
Thank you so much Ron for this video, much appreciated. If you have the ceiling to paint of a shower room, do you first paint the ceiling and walls and then do the grouting?
The PROPER way to wipe off the grout with the sponge is to make one pass diagonally, just like with the float, then flip the sponge and take another pass, then rinse and wring the sponge. Repeat, rinse, repeat.
Would this method work if replacing the grout with a darker coloured grout? I would like to refresh from white discoloured grout and replacing with grey? Thanks
Finally, someone who got to the point and demonstrated as he spoke instead of 2 minutes of uselessness and then a weak demonstration. This is the video I needed.
My thoughts exactly
@@Firetwirlerschannel he made it look too easy though, tile people charge 4 -800 dollars
This isn’t a grout refresh. It’s a grout replacement.
😆 ah finally someone who put into words what I couldn't!
And thank YOU for putting my thoughts into words. Haha Just read above.
No ads
No sponsor
No crap intro
Only the very necessary steps
100% gold
(G)old
None of that clout grout bullshit. I'm here for the grouting.
100% grout 😂
it's a clip from an old tv show dumbass - you know, those things with ads and intros
Idk but these classic old educational videos are gold
Yeah, they were made for a different time, one such as TV where air time is expensive. TH-cam on the other hand, we have people trying to stretch a 1 minute video into a 10 minute video for more ad revenue
This is possibly the best how-to video I've ever seen. So perfectly concise.

Definitely going to be doing this soon! Thank you!!
Perfect. Great example of how TH-cam videos should be done!
I wasn't expecting a 90's Saturday afternoon PBS type video😅

Amazing! I feel most channels would've turned this into a 20 minute video to accomplish the same thing.

This video is great. Easy on the eyes and ears and very professional. I could listen to him all day. Thank you!
I'm addicted to these videos for some reason, I've been binging them all day.
It's healthier than heroin
You can get ointment for that.....😄
Great video. No filler. Straight to the point.
When you regrout make sure you buy the stain proof premixed grout. Its more expensive but it will last longer.
I so needed this video Ron. I’ve moved into a new house with dirty old grout tile. So if I can’t get it clean I will refresh it. Looks easy and something I can do myself. Thank you👍🏼

Buying a house and one of the few interior repairs I need to do is fix the grout in the master bath. This helped. Thanks!

I’ve been looking into painting / staining my discoloured grout. I think I should spend the extra time and do this. Thank you for this video.

Exactly what I needed and mission accomplished. Thanks for the no-nonsense video! :)
EXCELLENT VIDEO FROM THE TOOLS TO USE AND HOW TO REMOVE THE OLD GROUT. ALSO HOW TO RE-GROUT AND PROPERLY FINISH OFF THE NEW GROUT.
Fantastic! I missed this grout saw step and each time I went to touch up the excess just eroded off the top leaving it the way it was before. It was good if I got a chip out since it filled the hole, but the rest just came back like it was before.
Fabulous demo! Thank you so much……you’ve taken all my fears away about re-grouting! Now I just have to do it 😅.
youtube.com/@aqeelahmed2281?si=q_f9QccGCjBfL4Tt
So much better than me taking out the whole damn grout thanks a lot. Especially since I’m new at this and just redoing my bathroom
This was exactly what I needed to see. Thank you so much!
Just the ticket, I had no idea how to refresh my bathroom tiles ~ now I have the knowledge, thanks buddy👍

this has such a warm feeling to it
Thank-you! So informative!!!! Can I do this but use a different color? The existing grout is nice but maroonish in color...would like to change it to a neutral!
Agree this is excellent. But I wish he had shown his application of the sealer.
Thanks! Awesome video. Is it okay not to replace the grout immediately after scraping it?
Great video. Straight to the point.
So I've got 10 sq yards of floor tile to scrape and clean working on my knees? How quick was that gonna get done?
Superb informative 👌 👏 👍, now everyone will start doing it at home.
Perfect instruction video! Commend you for this! Appreciate thus! Thanks!
Amazing video! Thank you so much!
Fastest subscription I ever made.

Are there specific grouts you need for tiles in shower floors?
So 90's. I love it.
Great explanation. Thank you.

Perfect. Concise and to the point A+
Thanks so much for this video. My counters are peeling some glue like substance. How do I get that all off before regrouting?
I used hydrogen peroxide and bicarbonate of soda mix and a toothbrush. Seriously doubted it would work but it did. Try a test patch to see. Grout looks like new.
Thats the way.
Thanks for Tip! I will definitely be trying this.
Nicely done. Thanks for your help!

Damn good video. I hope I can find it again once I actually need to refresh my grout.
how do i get the tile at waist level ? 👍
Thank you, great tutorial 🙏😀

The PROPER way to wipe off the grout with the sponge is to make one pass diagonally, just like with the float, then flip the sponge and take another pass, then rinse and wring the sponge. Repeat, rinse, repeat.
Or... Work along the same angle as the grout lines to make them look nice. Then second pass diagonally to polish the tile
@@anonymous7192 I'm referring mainly to removing grout from the tile surface.
@@RA82828 Yes, I am a "know-it-all." I prefer to be educated. You can continue to wallow in your ignorance since learning something offends you.
Would this method work if replacing the grout with a darker coloured grout? I would like to refresh from white discoloured grout and replacing with grey? Thanks
@@melissamaughan4354 It will take a lot of work to get the grout cleaned down far enough so it won't show through the darker grout, but it will work.
Good job and making it look so easy. Thanks.
