Maintaining Tiles: Why Epoxy Grout Is The Right Choice
Tiles add beauty to any space in your home. Chicago Tile & Backsplash only uses epoxy grout as it is non-porous. Normal tile grouting will get dirty or moldy if in a wet area like your bathroom or kitchen. It shows and automatically makes the space lose its beauty.
Backsplash contractors from Chicago Tile & Backsplash only use epoxy grouting because it does not stain and is long-lasting. Epoxy grout comes in many colors. It is by far the right choice for all your grouting needs.
WHAT IS EPOXY GROUT MADE FROM?
Epoxy grout is made from a few things combined like epoxy resin, pigments, silica fillers, and hardeners. This makes the epoxy grout mixture durable, non-porous, and resistant to chemicals and color stains. It is suitable for all types of tiles like ceramic, porcelain, and even marble tiles. Chicago Tile & Backsplash has the widest range of tiles in Chicago.
THE BENEFITS OF USING EPOXY GROUTING
If you are going to install tiles in your home, call professional tile installers. Choose epoxy grout for your bathroom remodeling project and backsplash installation.
DURABILITY
The great thing about epoxy grout and its durability is that because it is shock-resistant it will not break or even crack. You will never have to worry about something disturbing your epoxy grout. It is flexible and resistant to any chemical or liquid. It is the preferred choice among tile installers as it is easy to apply and dries super-fast.
NON-ABSORBENT
Cement grout is porous and absorbs moisture which leads to mold and mildew on the grouting. Epoxy grout is water-resistant so water will not stay on the epoxy grout, it runs right off. This is why tile contractors and backsplash contractors recommend epoxy grout to all their customers.
RESISTANCE TO CHEMICALS
Cement grout was the popular choice for many decades, however, because it dissolves over time with the use of cleaning products, an alternative was made. Epoxy grout is water-resistant and chemical resistant so it can be cleaned with any cleaning product and it will not deteriorate over time.
RESISTANCE TO WATER AND STAINS
For maintenance-free grouting use epoxy grout because it never has to be sealed again and it is water and stain-resistant. Epoxy grout is guaranteed to last a lifetime. Chicago Tile & Backsplash use epoxy grout because it surpasses standard cement grout. It is easier to do the epoxy grouting and it dries way faster than cement grout.
VERSATILITY OF EPOXY GROUT
