Grout Tile Cleaners questions, answered by experts

Grout lasts about eight to 20 years, depending on the type of grout and where it’s installed. Grout in high-moisture areas, like showers, may have a shorter life span. When grout reaches the end of its life span, it may look discolored or have missing pieces. Old grout can also cause some tiles to loosen, which is a sure sign that it’s time to regrout.

You should not use caulk as a direct substitute for grout, but it can be used as a temporary solution or supplement for repairing minor cracks. Caulk is more flexible and does not dry as hard as grout. To perform the repair, first use a grout or rotary saw to remove the old, cracked grout. Then, apply a matching caulk into the cracks, smooth it over, and allow it to cure. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for drying time, which can be up to 48 hours.

There are many benefits to hiring a professional floor cleaner. First, these flooring pros know the right chemicals for your flooring type, which is essential for its longevity. Likewise, they have the proper deep-cleaning equipment, which is often more complex than a mop or broom. Not only that, but deep cleaning your floors can be a time-consuming process, and by hiring a professional, you can spend that time on other home improvement projects.

Yes, you can reseal grout regardless of its age. What matters is its condition: If you’re unable to clean or repair it effectively, sealing the grout will not restore its look. In cases of cracked or damaged grout, you’ll need to repair or replace it to ensure your tiles don’t shift around and create a safety hazard.

Porous grout requires sealing, which includes all cement-based grout, including sanded and unsanded grout. Epoxy grout, on the other hand, doesn’t require sealing because it is non-porous.
