A local home repair group thought that there was not enough grouting in my bathroom, so they regrouped with white grout. I want to remove that ugly unnecessary grout. Help?

Got new tiles recently, and noticed a crack in the grout across a few tiles. Tiles are directly beneath washing machine, so afraid there may be seepage. Thanks 😊
Hi Patricia, I just removed the grout from around my tub and believe me it is not a fun job. I first took a razor and scored each side. I then took a scraper to try to pull it away from wall and grab it with pliers. I ended up using a hooked tool that I got in some kit to dig it out. Hopefully your is newer than mine and not quite as hard to get out.
You can use a flat head screwdriver, utility razor knife, or a hand grout saw. Hope they removed the old grout before regrouting.

Thanks, I will try that.
Do you mean grout or caulking?? Where is it around sink,tub faucets? Or in the flooring,tile walls?
I guess I mean caulking. They put right over the other grout.
