Small Hole in Grout

AOIS · Feb 19, 2020

Hi all,

I have had this small hole in the grout of my bathroom for about 6 months, I am ashamed to admit I am completely ignorant when it comes to any form of tilling or DIY for that matter. 😳

Is a hole this size likely to cause an issue? This tile is right under the shower, I am a bit worried water is going to penetrate and cause a bigger issue.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

You will have a problem if you don’t fill it soon - as well as the one above the Silicon on the shower tray!!

Thanks for the reply, any advice on how to resolve would be appreciated.

I presume I need to purchase a grout removal tool and remove as much grout as possible?

In terms of re-grouting, can I use the grout that comes premixed in a tube?

Thankfully there isn't a hole above the Silicon yet, it’s mould.

Just put a dab of Silicon over it!
