Now you can deliver grout faster and cleaner than ever before. And since labor is usually one of the the biggest expenses on a masonry job, a tool that allows you to cut costs and do a better job is worth checking into.

The Grout Grunt is a dual-handled plastic scoop that quickly and efficiently scoops and pours mixed grout. Two men in rotation can usually empty a standard 9 cubic foot mortar tub in about 5 minutes. 

The Grout Grunt was invented by Giovanni Agazzi, a bricklayer for more than 30 years.

The Grout Grunt ($35) weighs less than three pounds and washes clean with water.
