My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Grout for Backsplash

4 years ago

We are in the final stages of kitchen design, down to the fine details. The grout being proposed is Mapai Ultracolor Plus. https://www.mapei.com/us/en-us/products-and-solutions/products/detail/ultracolor-plus-fa

Is this good grout for a backsplash? I want to not have to worry about stains, mold, mildew or anything. It’s a working kitchen, but not particularly humid like a bathroom.
