This can be one of the hardest signs to see. You might think that is relatively easy because you can see it growing on your caulking and grout. However, what most homeowners don’t know is that by the time that you can see it, it’s already too late. Mold and mildew first begin to grow behind the grout and caulking. Therefore, without the regular checkups and cleaning your shower tile and grout mold and mildew can creep in, making it difficult to kill and eradicate.
There is another major sign that your tile and grout could use a little love. Your grout has a life expectancy just like anything else.

It prevents the deterioration of the grout and address if there is a need for any repair.
