Comments (4)I like the contrasting gray grout, but for resale (in my area - mostly 100 year old homes, HCOL) I'd definitely go with matching (white) grout (well, just a bit off white to hide dirt). While many do like the gray grout on white tile, plenty are turned off by it. I doubt many buyers would be actually turned off by white grout on white tile. Its just 'safer,' at least according to real estate agents where I live (I asked many when I was doing my master bath). And, if the tile work isn't very straight, the contrasting color will magnify that problem. With similar color grout you won't notice tile issues as much. I guess the best thing to do - if you are concerned about resale - is ask a real estate broker in your town. HTH!...See MoreShower: White subway, white grout, marble floor
Comments (3)The secret to less maintenance with grouted tiles of any color is using grout properly mixed in order for it to not be porous. A grout mixed soupy will be porous versus a grout mixed to a thick consistency. As the grout dries air bubbles come up through the grout leaving pin holes to trap dirt and hard to get clean. It is very difficult to properly seal a porous grout....See MoreGrout color white subway tile
