Q: What’s the difference between caulk and grout?

• <div><p>Caulk and grout are two different materials with different purposes. Caulk is used to seal corners, cracks, and edges, while grout is used to fill the gaps between tiles. While the consistency is somewhat similar, caulk and grout can&rsquo;t be used interchangeably.</p></div>

Q: What are common tile issues?

• <div><p>Common problems include cracks, loose tiles, and grout discoloration. Proper maintenance prevents many issues.</p></div>

Q: Will vinegar remove tile adhesive?

• <div><p>While vinegar can remove some adhesives, it may not work at removing floor tile adhesives. Floor tile adhesives are particularly strong in order to hold up to foot traffic, so vinegar may not be powerful enough to remove them. However, if you use peel-and-stick tiles for your kitchen backsplash or mudroom floor, vinegar may help clean up any adhesive residue from those types of tiles.</p></div>

Q: How often should tile and grout be professionally cleaned?

• <div><p>Professional cleaning is recommended every 12-18 months, depending on the level of foot traffic and exposure to moisture in the area. More frequent cleaning may be necessary for high-use spaces like kitchens and bathrooms.</p></div>

Q: How much grout sealer should you use?

• <div><p>Be sure to check the grout you use before you apply the grout sealer. Sometimes, grout doesn&rsquo;t actually need sealer at all. </p><p>For the rest, apply one thin coat, clean up any excess mess, and let it sit for at least a full day. After a day has passed, go ahead and apply a second thin coat. Again, let that dry for another 24 hours.</p></div>

I was very pleased with the job Central PA Power wash did on my home. The siding was extremely clean and Wes was very professional in my dealings with him. I would recommend him to anyone looking for power washing.
