The shower floor has some major wear in the grout. We've gotten several quotes about repairing or replacement. The original people used unsanded grout in these 1/4-1/8" spaces.
One company told us that the grout replacement with epoxy was recommended, but might be cheaper to replace the whole floor tiles. Another said they'd cover over with a filler that'd seal the old grout for much cheaper.
here is one spot I scrapped w a grout remover
here is another
here is the supplies they left
My question is... we only plan on keeping this house another year or two.
- Would be better to just band-aid it for $200 and let the next people deal with it?
- Or replace for $1000 and just not worry about the next people requiring the replacement on closing?
- Or look into the $ to replace the floor including tiles.
There's other tiling that also needs regrouted, but I'm gonna fuck around with the old grout they left and do that myself, since it's not water related.
