Innovation is our benchmark

This Old Grout started in 1993 after Mr. Sherman realized there was a void in the industry for a durable grout restoration/protection system.  The lack of a safe, reliable and easy to use system forced him to start manufacturing a revolutionary product for the restoration of tile and grout – This Old Grout’s Stain Sealer.  The business quickly grew as contractors from the U.S. and around the world began to purchase and utilize Ken Sherman’s products and systems.  Today, his Stain Sealer is used in hotels, commercial properties, and residences throughout the world.

Ken and the This Old Grout Staff have trained hundreds of contractors and companies how to be successful in this profitable field with a one of a kind hands on process.

No moss grows under a rolling Stone…

Today, This Old Grout & Stone manufacturers some of the most innovative products for the Natural Stone Industry.  The company has grown and we have listened to our customers.  Our line of Sealers and specialty products combines the science of chemistry with the chemistry of stone.

Not another manufacturer’s infomercial!

At the Stone House, you can leave those fears at the door.  This training is about the restoration of natural stone, tile, and grout.  Our training always comes from the contractor’s perspective and is completely hands-on.  No Fluff Additives in the Stone House.  Our training is all about giving you the most precise information, enabling you to leave our course and begin a career with practical and usable knowledge. 

The information not being taught is what is most needed in the field.

“The failure rate is typically high for a contractor who attends one of the various training courses available in the industry today.” Notes Bruce Perkins, Chief Trainer for the Stone House.

“Most contractors learn how to move a grinding machine around on an open floor, but that represents only part of the knowledge needed to actually complete a stone job in the customers home.  It’s the 20% that is not being taught that results in a successful and profitable job.”
