A hotel bathroom is more than just a functional space—it plays a crucial role in shaping guests’ first impressions. Over time, grout lines can become discolored due to moisture, dirt, and cleaning chemicals, making even the cleanest bathrooms look tired and uninviting. Rather than a costly and time-consuming tile replacement, grout recolouring offers a fast and effective solution to rejuvenate bathroom aesthetics.
Why Recolour Grout in a Hotel Bathroom?
1. Restores a Fresh, Clean Look
Discoloured grout can make an otherwise spotless bathroom appear dirty. Recolouring restores the original brightness or even allows for a completely new look.
2. Cost-Effective Solution
Instead of retiling an entire bathroom, grout recolouring provides a budget-friendly alternative with a similar impact.
3. Increases Hygiene and Stain Resistance
Recoloured grout helps seal porous surfaces, preventing the buildup of mold, mildew, and dirt—critical in maintaining a high hygiene standard in hotels.
4. Minimises Downtime
In the hospitality industry, room availability is key. Grout recolouring can be completed in a matter of hours, ensuring minimal disruption to business operations.
Step-by-Step Guide to Grout Recolouring with Tilemaster Products
1. Deep Cleaning with Tilemaster Cleaner
Before applying any recolouring solution, it’s essential to remove any dirt, grease, and residue from the grout. Tilemaster Intensive Cleaner is an excellent choice for breaking down grime and preparing grout for treatment.
• Apply the cleaner to grout lines using a brush or sponge.
• Allow it to sit for a few minutes before scrubbing.
• Rinse thoroughly and let the grout dry completely before proceeding.
2. Choosing the Right Grout Colour
Tilemaster offers a variety of grout colourant options, allowing you to either restore the original shade or opt for a new, modern look. White, grey, and darker tones are popular choices in hotel bathrooms, as they enhance the overall aesthetic while resisting visible staining.
3. Applying Tilemaster Grout Colourant
Once the grout is clean and dry, it’s time to apply Tilemaster Grout Colourant, which not only changes the colour but also provides a protective, water-resistant finish.
• Shake the bottle well before use.
• Using a small brush or applicator, carefully apply the colourant along the grout lines.
• Wipe away any excess from tiles with a damp cloth before it dries.
• Allow the product to cure according to the manufacturer’s instructions (usually 24 hours).
4. Sealing for Long-Lasting Protection
For extra durability, consider sealing the grout after recolouring. Tilemaster’s range of sealers helps to repel moisture and stains, ensuring the new look lasts for years with minimal maintenance.
