Fixing Grout Cracked When Removing Caulk

By (Guest Post)

You don't need grout under caulk. just make sure you do a good job sealing the corner off with the caulk and you'll be fine!

Where the plane changes on a grouted surface you should use caulk. That means corners whether they be inside or outside corners, vertical or horizontal. Caulk and grout are not the same things.

Just buy some more grout and apply. Then put the caulk back on it looks like a small job. Easy fix.

Go to your local Hardware store and get a tube of silicone grout and a grout gun, ask the rep. to show you how to use it. Run a line of grout down the corner and then run your wet finger along the line, wipe off any that gets on the tile. This is something that is not hard to do and materials are not expensive. The glue behind the tile holds the tile on the wall not the grout. So the tile should be OK.

My suggestion is to call the Grout Dr. He will scrape the old/loose stuff out, and he'll regrout. He does a great job. It's what we had to do as well.
