Grout Tile Cleaners questions, answered by experts

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.

If you are wondering how to get rid of mold in your shower or bathroom, substances like dish soap, vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, and rubbing alcohol all can potentially do the job. You also could create a mixture of bleach and water to remove the mold, but be very careful never to mix bleach with other cleaning agents. Only mix bleach with water. Exposing bleach to other cleansers could cause a release of extremely dangerous chlorine gas.

Steam mopping effectively cleans and sanitizes floors to kill germs and remove ingrained grease and grime. However, vacuuming or sweeping the flooring first is always a good idea. This removes the larger dust and debris particles that can end up being pushed around the floor by a non-suctioning steam cleaner.

Grout haze will appear within a few days of tile installation and should be removed as quickly as possible. That said, if caught early, grout haze can be left overnight while you gather supplies or make arrangements for it to be cleaned—but the grout haze will be more difficult to remove the longer it is left.

You shouldn’t add new grout over grout that’s broken, cracked, or crumbling. If you do, the new layer might not adhere properly to the old one, and you could end up with even more grout issues. Plus, if you don’t remove the damaged grout, you’ll be ignoring whatever underlying problem initially caused the grout to crack, which could lead to more serious issues down the line.
