Most people or business owners don’t know that hairline cracks in the grout can lead to leaks and other issues.

Over time, hairline cracks will expand and even cause the flooring material to break.

If it is possible that the grout lines will look perfect when inspected; however, grout lines will crack over time if not properly cleaned after the installation.

If grout lines were not cleaned periodically with a proper grout cleaner, hairline cracks will likely form.

The main cause of hairline cracks is moisture. If the tile flooring is exposed to water, especially for a long period of time, the grout lines will expand and even break.

The grout lines will begin to expand and then break due to the weight of the water.

Imagine what could happen in a public bathroom, employee shower stalls, or entryway where water is tracked in when it snows or rains?

We strongly recommend that you use professional tile grout cleaning periodically so you can keep your flooring looking fresh, more importantly, keep it from cracking.
