Tile Grout Float
A tile grout float is a tool used in the process of installing ceramic or stone tiles. It typically consists of a flat, rectangular or square-shaped rubber or foam pad attached to a handle. The purpose of a tile grout float is to apply and spread grout into the joints between tiles. The flat surface of the float helps ensure an even distribution of grout and allows for effective filling of spaces between tiles. After the grout is applied, excess grout can be wiped away with the edge of the float. Overall, a tile grout float is an essential tool for achieving a clean and professional finish when grouting tile installations.
Tile Spacer
A tile spacer is a small, typically plastic or cross-shaped tool used in the installation of tiles. Its primary function is to maintain consistent and uniform gaps between tiles during the installation process. These gaps, known as grout lines, ensure that tiles are evenly spaced and allow for the application of grout, which helps secure the tiles in place and provides a finished look to the tiled surface. Tile spacers come in various sizes to accommodate different spacing preferences and tile dimensions, contributing to a professional and aesthetically pleasing tile installation.
