About us

The Grout Expert is a professional grout, tile and stone services company serving the San Francisco Bay Area and Orange County. We've worked with California homeowners and businesses since 1999, completing thousands of successful grout and tile cleaning projects. From kitchens and bathrooms to restaurants and fitness centers, The Grout Expert repairs, cleans, and seals grout, tile, and stone with an unparalleled combination of efficiency and care. We approach every grout cleaning job—from the smallest bathroom to the largest commercial kitchen—with the highest level of care and thoroughness. The end result is that your grout, tile, and stone will be very clean, consistently color matched, and properly sealed. Our staff treats your home and time as if they were their own. We communicate clearly, work quietly and efficiently, and clean up after ourselves. Read our testimonials to see what people say about us. Just about anyone can do a simple grout-over. But when a project gets complicated, entailing wet rock or vintage tiles, you need a professional with grout and tile cleaning skills and experience far beyond the basics. We handle the tough projects that our competitors decline to take on—in fact, they often refer customers to us. In our business, it's easy to take shortcuts. Steam cleaning with harsh chemicals or grouting over old grout can be done quickly and cheaply, but it often causes additional damage and work in the long-term. We do the work right the first time by hand cleaning and replacing old grout. $50 charge for out of area service. Award wining. Additional fax - (650) 324-1734. Additional email - [email protected].

If there were an A+ I would have given that grade to Peter and his company. The area that was to have grout removed and redone was immense. Peter did the job in three days. He removed all the grout by hand and his regrout method was so clean. There was no disruption to the family during that time. Peter and I corresponded by email, he arrived with sample books, and completed the job beautifully. Thank you Peter!

It went exceptionally well. Peter went above and beyond. Everything he did was excellent. Tile and grout look brand new. He even did a few small jobs that he did not charge us for. We are very happen with the work and professionalism he showed. We would definitely hire him again without thinking twice.

Excellent result very good work by Peter. He worked hard all day, very good professional and nice man to work with. We will call him back for additional projects and give his contact information to my uncle that will need work done in a few months. Peter is a perfectionist and expert at this type of work.

I requested an estimate to install tile. Peter showed up on time, looked at job and said he was really busy and said he didn't have time to do the. I then asked him why he even came out. He said he thought it was a grout repair that he could do in one day. What a waste of my time.

The install went great. Peter was very helpful and took extra care as I was having glass subway tile installed and not your basic ceramic tile. It turned out great!

Not only am I thoroughly impressed with the work performed on my tile but I was also impressed with how courteous and professional the receptionist is at The Grout Expert. I thought the tile in my bathrooms looked good but after seeing the work done on my entryway and kitchen, I want them to come back out and finish the tile in my bathrooms too!

Excellent. Peter Mangel did the work. He was thorough, efficient, & friendly. I used the Real Deal coupon--$129 for 3 hours of caulking/grout restoration + paid an additional $91 due to extra time to complete the job. The additional cost was discussed prior to the start of the job. It has been about 3-1/2 months since he performed the work, & all still looks new. The contractor that remodeled my bathroom actually had used sand grout around the bathtub (twice because it only lasted a couple of months before chunks of grout dislodged around the tub, so this contractor returned to "fix" it). It was obvious the sand grout was not working & silicone was a better solution. The colored silicone installed by Peter looks great. Definitely would hire again.

Peter came on time, worked like a driven professional, and left it all beautiful and did more than I expected. His price was fair for the work he did.

Charging outrageous prices. There was no work to be done for only$129. Cheapest job was $190. Cancelled the promotion. Didn't want to work to clarify the incongruity of the pricing. In addition I didn't have any confidence he would do a decent job.

While doing the work, they found a number of loose tiles around the tub. Had to pay extra, but they re-cemented the loose tiles, did an awesome job of calking and left it all VERY clean when done. Very happy

He looked at the the area we wanted done (in the kitchen) and said that it was not something he would be able to do. So I asked him to look at the bath room and said he could do the bathroom. After taking a second look at the kitchen he said it would take longer than the three hours of the deal to do the kitchen and quoted a price of $250. I felt like he was up selling us on the deal instead of just providing the service. He provided no explanation as to why it would take so long

Peter did a good job on the repairs. He was on time and relatively relatively neat (there will be grout dust so cover things).  He also did a small grout repair in a second bathroom that I added on at the last minute for no additional cost..
Initially, I had him repair the grout on the bathroom floor.  His price was $300 which seemed high, but not outrageous.  The tile looked great except for two small areas which he took care of on his second visit. 
I asked for a quote to repair the grout on the shower floor, pony wall and 1/2 way up the shower walls.  We settled on a price of $400 which again seemed high, but based on the amount of time he had spent on the first job, perhaps not that out of line.  However, the second job took 4 hours (as opposed to the 6 to 8 hours estimated) which averaged out to $100 per hour. 
I asked him to quote a third job and the price seemed out of line with similar work I had done a couple of years ago.  I  will look for someone else who does good work at a more reasonable rate.
If you want excellent work and are not concerned about cost use this provider.

  • Easy to make an appointment and got an estimate.  Peter showed up on time and he is a hard worker, does excellent job as he promised to do.  I am more than happy with the end results.
