Shower and grout maintenance that keeps tiled showers clean, mold-free and watertight with simple daily habits and periodic checkups.
A tiled shower stays beautiful when it is allowed to dry. Water, soap and humidity are the enemies of grout and caulk, and a few small habits make a big difference. Homeowners in Nashville, where summer humidity lingers, find that ventilation, a squeegee and a yearly check of caulk lines can add years to a shower.
Run the exhaust fan during and after showers, and squeegee glass and tile when you can. Wipe standing water from the floor and ledges, and use a mild cleaner regularly so soap scum does not build up. Check the caulk in corners and at the tub or floor each season and replace it when it cracks or peels. Reseal cement grout as recommended, and fix small grout cracks promptly. We offer maintenance visits that clean, recaulk and check for early signs of trouble, and we explain what we see. Every few months, press along the corner caulk and look for gaps or soft spots. Check the glass door seals and the drain cover. If you see dark spots returning in the same place, tell us, because the cause may be a small leak or a ventilation issue.
