What is Laticrete Grout?

Laticrete grout is a high-quality, professional-grade product used for filling the gaps between tiles in flooring, walls, and other tiling projects. It is a type of cement-based grout that is mixed with water and applied with a grout float. Laticrete grout is known for its durability, resistance to cracking, and ability to withstand harsh conditions, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

It comes in a variety of colors to match or contrast with the color of the tiles, and it can be sanded or unsanded depending on the size of the grout lines. Laticrete also offers epoxy grouts that are stain and chemical resistant, ideal for areas like kitchens and bathrooms where the grout may be exposed to substances that could cause discoloration or damage.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Step 1: Multiply the area by the depth and width of the grout joint:

\[ A \times D \times W = 100 \times 0.25 \times 0.125 = 3.125 \]

Step 2: Divide the result by the product of the thickness of the tile and the coverage rate of the grout:

\[ GC = \frac{3.125}{0.5 \times 1} = 6.25 \text{ lbs} \]
