Your Tile and Grout Water Damage Cleanup Questions Addressed
Does wet grout always need replacement?
Not if it is dried promptly and completely, though heavily contaminated grout may need replacing.
Can water under tile damage the subfloor?
Yes. Trapped water can rot wood subfloors and loosen tiles if it is not dried properly.
Why is grout water extraction important?
Grout absorbs water like a sponge and holds it against the tile and subfloor unless it is extracted.
When is emergency grout drying necessary?
After any significant water event on tile, since grout starts absorbing water right away.
Can I dry wet tile myself with fans?
Household fans only dry the surface and cannot pull moisture from deep in grout or under tiles.
