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.

Black Grout Staining Washclothes

3 years ago

When I wipe the tile in my newly installed kitchen, the washcloth picks up a black stain from the grout.


I thought at first this was just dust from the installation, but it has been several weeks and several cleanings and it still happens. Even just wiping the edge of the countertops where they meet the tile picks up black stains.
