Dear All
I'm in the process of tiling our new downstairs bathroom and hallway. The tiles I'm using are 30cmx30cm beige (ochre) porcelain. My other half wanted to use an ivory grout and the tile shop supplied us with granfix limestone grout which I'm assuming is an ivory cream colour?
One of my relatives has advised against using limestone/ivory grout on floor tiles particularly in the hallway as they said the grout would show the dirt easily. I know it's a light colour but it's not white. My question therefore is in most people's experience is it wise to use limestone grout on floor tiles - particularly in the hallway - or should I opt for a darker colour? I'm using 3mm spaces between the tiles.
A quick further question is the tiles are described as natural, unpolished porcelain - will I need to seal them once they are down and if so what's the best product to use?
Any advice gratefully received.
Matthew
