Grout choice. - TilersForums.com

[ishi69]

Just looking for suggestions. The bathroom I'm doing at the moment is mocha floor tile 30x30 bottom half of walls is mocha 60x30 then mocha glass and metal border and top half of walls is gloss white 60x30. Was gonna go with brown grout on the mocha tile and white on the white tile. Just wondering if anybody has any suggestions for a colour that may suit both tiles. .

You'll be lucky to get a grout that will satisfy a light and dark tile together. Two options IMO, the one you have chosen, or go for mocha on both walls and floor. I wouldn't normally put a dark grout on a light tile but on a tile that size it may look ok.

Was also thinking of going with the brown straight thru, will probably try a sample on a couple of the spare white tiles over the wknd.

I think you can go brown all over looking at the pics

I would use grey, it is always used on white tiling in Germany and would look good on the mocha as well

I would go with Mapei 113 Cement Grey.

I'd go Tilemaster 3000 mid grey, phenomenal grout.

You like the Tilemaster grout then Doug, you use it regular now?

I think grey grout would suit both tiles but I had a bit of a problem with some of white tiles yesterday being a little inaccurate and have had to open up a few of the joints around the window. As a result I'm a little unsure of using a contrasting colour that might highlight this.

Went with the white and cocoa grout at the finish.

Good choice, I would have always gone with brown grout on a mixed brown tile like that, Looks good.
