Gray grout color with white subway and white marble mosaic
Comments (3)Thank you Debrak for the pics, yes, I do like the Deloren Gray. I found a chart on the internet that compares the colors of Mapei, Laticrete and Custom Building Products, very helpful. I do realize it isn't perfect, but will help me narrow down a few colors. mydreamhome, yes, I do have to drive 60 miles to HD and Lowes, so I will be searching out a few real tile stores in the city and calling to see if they have real grout samples. Thanks for that tip. The big box stores are great for a lot of things, but some are very lacking in knowledge and service. I think it is time for professional help! Thanks This is the grout chart in case anyone else is in need. Here is a link that might be useful: Grout-Aide color comparisan chart...See MoreWhat color white grout for white subway tile
Comments (11)kegrant- I too would love to see photos and do post on what you finally decide. I too have simply white cabinets (ikea lidingo) and soapstone counters and am leaning towards white subways with white or possibly silvery gray grout (DH's preference) but everyone who looks at my kitchen says you want to add more white?!?! I am pretty confident I will love the look, but photos are always better. Best of luck to you in your search!...See MoreGlass Subway tile with gray grout?
Comments (23)I too couldn’t find photos of glass tile with gray grout. All the photos I found had white grout. To add to my dilemma, the glass tile is textured. I’m currently renovating our bathroom and my designer suggested it. I’m not sure about it....See MoreGrey grout with creamy-white subway tile?
Comments (10)kats737, we just got our own set of lovely old-house surprises...turns out every renovation the prior owners made was made in the shoddiest way possible. Big holes cut into major beams...An entire 3rd floor shower held up by a few unconnected pieces of plywood and a whole bunch of plaster...Kitchen floor laminate put directly on rotted floor...we've basically had to gut 3/4 of the place. It's gonna be amazing when we're done, but I'm really not loving the prior owners at the moment. Or our home inspector! Mizlizzie, your bathroom is beautiful, thanks for posting! I'm going to go ahead with my creamy tiles and stop worrying about this one....See Moredcclerk
