• How to Repair Damaged ...
I love listening to this lady. Such a soothing voice. I don’t even have grout issues but i watched the whole video
I love how often I search for a home repair video only to find Leah has one from a few years ago that perfectly, and concisely walks me right through it.
Nicely edited. I like how you get right into it, without a long introduction. Thanks!
Me too, no time-wasting and very clear & helpful! Thanks!
DITTO! No kissing butt of the viewers, & no begging us to "click like and subscribe" ;-)
Another video I found from you to help me repair something as a first time home owner with a builder who didn't care about building me a quality home! Thank you! Headed to Ace now to pick up my supplies and get this project started!
My builder installed a ledge in our master shower and decided it would be the best idea to ensure the tile install allowed water to pool nicely, now the tile is cracked on the top of the ledge and water was certainly getting behind the tile. It's been a week since we used the shower so I hope it's all dried out, I think only 4 showers were taken since the large crack formed and my wife finally listened to me and stopped using the shower so it could dry out. Good luck me! hah
I followed your instruction and restored my shower walls. Thank you so much for your easy to follow instructions!
Thank you for an easy-to-follow video! Do I need to seal the grout? If so, what product would I need to use? Or does the grout already come not needing to be sealed? Thank you again!
Yes! Perfect timing. We're having new counters out in today but are keeping our tile backsplash. This answers the big question of how to redo our grout where it's messed up. Thank you!
I'm glad you made this video! Our bathroom's tiles need some regrouting soon and I was hoping we can fix it instead of calling someone to do it for us
I am getting ready to regrout much of my bathroom. I have already removed the problematic grout and cleaned it up. Now I am going to apply the grout. My contractor told me what to do, but watching your video gives me confidence that I CAN do this! lol. Thank you., Great video!
Leah, you rock. Did a search, saw a bunch of videos but was psyched when I saw you! Always my first choice
You have a real knack for putting out videos just when I need them! Thanks for motivating me to finally fix up the shower 👍
:)
I’ve never hit the subscribe button so fast. You’re such a clear and soothing teacher. ❤️
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your video was released just in time. I am about to remodel my bathroom and have to keep the bath/shower that is currently there. The grout is broken in several places. This video will help tremendously. Thank you, Leah. Keep up the great work.
glad it will be of help!
You are very good at this (the repairing and the videoing)! Your videos are always entertaining, simple to understand, consequently, very informative. Please keep up the good work.
Excellent job! Plain, simple, thorough. Two thumbs up 👍
That grout saw is perfect. Using that saw makes the job look a lot easier than I thought it would be. Thanks a bunch, Leah.
thanks, Linda!
@@seejanedrill Can that saw be used on floor tile grout too?
I am a first time home owner... Leah, you have saved me over and over again! Thank you for posting your instructional videos & giving me the confidence to tackle these projects!
you're very welcome, Suzanne!
Thank you so much. Simple and to the point. Anymore these days, when I want to learn how to do something, I start my search with “See Jane [name of project].” Solid advice and easy to follow everything you teach. Thank you!
Your videos are some of the best(if not the best) for diy'ers. Thank you so much. You've saved me thousands of dollars as a first time home owner.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video Jane! It's great seeing some basic stuff explained to give me the confidence to try it myself. Can't be worse than leaving the cracks there, right?
Exactly what I needed to know. I’m so excited to do this in my bathroom and get rid of the spots that are either cracked or stained!! 😁😁😁
Great video! Can you please make another grout video explaining the different types of grout and where they should be used?
Handyman just left me hanging with no grout in the tiles he fixed when he didn't show up the next day. Thank you for you informative to the point easy to follow video. Noe I can fix it myself!
This is a God send!! I have a lot of grout to repair! I will be purchasing the tools through your Amazon link. And you earned some coffee with this one because you have saved me big time $$$.
Wow, thank you so much. I have several wall tiles in my shower that the grout is breaking down & needs repair. Watching your video makes me a bit more confident. I think I can do this.👍
You have a wonderful voice and soothing demeanor! Thanks for the help. I am going to tackle my own shower now.
This is a great easy to understand video. Ty so much. Can you please share what grout you used? My shower tile is exactly like the kind in the video. Ty!
This video is so detailed, probably the best on this subject.
Taking out the old grout was the hardest, longest process. But! Now it looks great. Thank you for the info👍👍🏾👍🏿👍🏻❤️
Thanks for another very helpful video. I always enjoy your presentation style and always feel like i came away with the info I was watching to gain.
So I was thinking this would be a huge job.
Glad I saw the video. Looks like I could keep up with grout problems much ,much easier
than I thought. Keep up the Great Videos. Thank You !!!!
You are a pleasure to watch & listen to. Even if I think I know how to do something I always wind up learning something. Thanks.
If only all 'how to' videos were as straight forward as this. A great tutorial.
Thanks Jane, I always know where to go if i need a quick lesson or refresher. Keep killin it
Do you normally use sanded or non sanded grout in a shower? Also do you recommend sealing grout in a shower?
OMG I follow you on Tik Tok and just found you on TH-cam! thank you for your expertise!
your videos are always great....what are your thoughts about using a grout sealer afterwards, particularly in a bath/shower area?
Leah you are a money saver thanks for the tips and I’m going to attempt this weekend.
Thank you so much for a wonderful and educational video with no extra fluff!
Of to the store, I am. Tonight I am sure my wife will want to thank you too.
Thank you for this video! What's the difference between the little float and the big one? Why use both?
Exactly what I needed to help with my damaged grout!
Your videos are always so informative. I so enjoy being one of your subscribers
Should we use a different grout saw with multiple blades if we have wider grout spacing than you demonstrate? Our bathroom is tiled on the vanity top and walls so that the grout where they meet appears to be wider. Thanks for any advice.
Do you have a video on the different types of grouts and their applications? For example, for use in showers, vs counter tops, vs floors? Thanks in advance!
Short and very good video for explaining basic regret. Thanks!
Hi great video, I have a few shower tiles that need to be re-grouted, and I was wondering if there is a recommended waiting period before we can start using the shower again?
Great video! Could you tell me what brand/type of grout you're using?
Thanks I'm new to DIY, this was helpful, plain and simple, hopefully I can fix those two tiles in my bathroom now.
Thanks for the help your info is the best. One question can you use a sealant??
This was so helpful and easy to digest, thank you so much.
Well. Looks like I have another project to work on.
Thank you. Now I know what I will be doing in confidence! 👍👍
Short, to the point, good clear instructions
and video
Great video! Do you use sanded or nonsanded grout?
Thank you so much! You demystified that job delightfully!! Grateful.
I’ve watched several uhhh demos and instruction. Yours is masterful ! Thank you!
Thank you!! I was super anxious of fixing mine, but this helped tremendously!
Thank You! excellent job & easy to understand and follow
I knew I would find something in your arxhives on how to do this! We jusy brought a house with a tile shower, so there's a few places that need a little help. One question: we have this sort of shelf thing for soap, also made of tile that is attached in the corner in the shower. There is a visible gap on ome side where the graut chipped or wasn't put in correctly. How so I fix that so it doesn't eventually fall off the wall?
You mentioned to clean the tile before starting. Any suggestions on cleaning white 4” square shower tile that was laid in 1970? I can’t get them clean.
Simple and to the point! Great job!!!! Will be checking out your other vids. All the best
Thanks Leah, the video is just what I needed.
Thank you so much Leah! I was insecure starting my project but you make it look do-able! Simple, straight to the point, loved it! Good karma is coming your way for helping ladies all across the world :)
The only honestly useful video I have found. Thank you! You make a girl feel like this is going to be possible!😬here goes nothing!
THANK YOU! You made it look so easy!
Great video!! What if the grout has aged a couple years & the grout repair area looks newer & cleaner? Im guessing as a paid job the handyman would have to clean a small section bordering the repair & do a sample right?
Excellent video, about to repair some grout in the shower.
Do you recommend a sealant on the new grout?
Great video I liked it question does grout completely replace caulk?
Thank you Leah, another one that's already on my to do list!
Brilliant video, thank you, now I'm going to tackle this job confidently!
Would this technique work also for kitchen grout which has a bit thicker line?
Leah, you are unique! Cheers!!
Thank you so much. I feel so empowered by your video. I think I can do it now.
Is there a specific kind of grout you would recommend?? I just finished removing all the grout around my tub/shower. I'm really nervous about replacing the grout. I have all my tools and bought some grout. What grout would you use? Love your channel!!!
Why do I feel like I can do anything the moment I hear this woman's voice?
Thank you for the information, very helpful.
I've heard that you can't apply grout on top of old grout. can't prevent that from happening if you are regrouting only a small area. But now I see you did it. I guess it is alright. And do you have to apply sealant? Or are you using eproxy grout?
Thank you! I have this same repair to make and was wondering how to do it. Great instruction, as always. Much appreciated.
Leah to the rescue! 🔨📐
This video is so helpful! Thanks!
Do I have to scrape it all out ? Or can I just put grout on top of existing grout ?
Leah I have a question. I only have one bathroom and I know you must wait 24 hours for the grout to dry. Can I use the shower after I remove the grout, before I replace it for a day if I am only using it once of twice at the most?
Thanks! Super clear and easy to follow.
Oustanding! I appreciate the "you can do this!" Yes, I can!
Great video!!! So clear! Thank you!
WOW AMAZING VIDEO VERY EDUCATIONAL
Are you supposed to use grout for the joint adjacent to the bathtub, or should that be caulk? Also, what about the vertical corner of the walls?
Do you know what a steak knife is? Is it serrated? When you cut the steak do you just use backward stroke to cut the steak or do you go back and forth?
Great video. Should be careful to no damage the waterproofing under the tiles.
Hi, Leah, hope you are good! Leah, I am working on our shower floor tile, the grout is a little lower than the top of the tile, the grout is not flush with the face of the tile and I am scrapping the grout down a bit, in order to regrout it. My question to you is, how much of the grout do I need to remove? By the way, the tiles are spaced approximately, 1/8+" from each other. What do you think about epoxy grout for this and will it stick to the grout already in place?? Thank you, Luis
Well done. Ezsy peasey... you have inspired me.
Thank you for much a clear instruction.
thank you for this video - simply explained!
very helpful and a well done video as usual.
Thanks for the tips, Leah!
Great instruction and right to the point! Thank you!
Thank you Leah 👍 I have never seen powdered grout before. I have only seen the kind in a tube. Is this it? The is the same as a sealer?? Have a wonderful day Leah.👍👏🏡
Hi Mae, it isn't the same as a sealer. That is a different material and process.
seejanedrill would you seal the grout after applying?
Great video as always! Thanks Leah!
:)
I've been waiting for you to do this one! Thanks!
Thank You Leah. I need to do this.
This was nicely done!
