A grout float is a tiler’s finishing tool, a trusty companion that a tiler’s toolkit would never be without. Grout floats are flat surfaces designed to push, pull, smooth and compact grout into the spaces set between tiles. They typically use a soft rubber face to push and pull grout along the surfaces of tiles without risking chipping, scuffing or otherwise damaging the tiles as it does so, this allows a professional to apply a good amount of pressure to bring the grout where it needs to be, in the spaces between tiles. Without a grout float, applying grout to create a dirt and moisture barrier, as well as join all the tiles together for added durability, would be a drawn-out and finicky job requiring greater precision and multiple tools. Instead, the handy grout float allows the grout to be pushed and pulled around the floor with ease, naturally falling into the spaces and compacting down as the float moves over the top, smoothing the surface and creating a perfect finish. Coupled with a good sponge to clean the grout left behind on tiles before it dries and you have the perfect finishing kit.
