How to Choose Grout Colors


NBC CT visits Tile America in our Brookfield Showroom to talk to Lana Camera, our Product & Creative Director about the importance grout plays in the overall design of your next tile project.


 

Watch how WFSB's Great Day Connecticut speaks to Joe Limiero in our West Hartford showroom to see how important grout color is to your next tile project.  Choosing a grout color is a hugely impactful decision in the overall look of your finished project. 

 


The grout's color will interact with the tile and impart the color to every nook and cranny.  This said, you can emphasize the shape of the tile by using a contrasting color or you can minimize the tile's silhouette by using a matching grout color.  The choices add another layer of complexity that can be very impactful.  Talk to a design consultant to get it right!
