DATES AND GROUT

Wednesday, January 23, 2013
So far most of our flooring has been installed. Carpet went in yesterday and ceramic tiles last week. My husband is really not feeling the grout color of the kitchen/morning room tile and I am inclined to agree. We have the fresco caffe tile but this was installed with a light brown grout...ugh! In some areas its only slightly darker than the tile but in others, there's more of a contrast. We don't want it to be white but lighter than it is now. Now it looks like its already dirty or to my husband...moldy. Eeek! The PM and SR know we aren't happy but I don't know what can be done at this point. Who knew? We never had a "grout" discussion when we selected the tile at the model. If it ain't one thing, it's another. We'll have to wait and see.
We've gotten a February 15th walk through date before our February 19th settlement. Things are creeping up fast. This will be our last weekend in this home before we move everything out and into storage.  I'm very anxious/nervous about so much transition especially when school starts back next week. I'm afraid I won't have the time nor space to breathe and or think. I have to keep my spiritual armor on and pray for the best.

  1. I think our grout lightened up a bit after we applied the sealant so that might help a bit... although you wouldn't be able to tell for sure until after closing. Hopefully RH will come up with a solution that you can live with.
