Nobody loves scrubbing grouts (at least, not me) and the thought of scrubbing those grimy lines for years to come, or seeing ants crawl from grout cracks, filled us with dread. So, we made a decision that has transformed our home - we regrouted every single tile with Grout ProTech. It's one of the best renovation choices we have made!

Plus, with epoxy grout, you can ditch the boring white and choose from a variety of colors to match your style and give your home that extra touch of "bougie." So, if you're looking for a low-maintenance, insect-repelling, and aesthetically pleasing solution for your tiles, epoxy grout is the way to go!
