In many Longwood, FL homes, tile dries quickly.
Grout does not.
That lingering dampness causes long-term problems.
How Grout Holds Water Inside Its Pores
Grout is cement-based and absorbent.
When water enters, it must evaporate from within.
This takes time — especially in humid environments.
Why Florida Humidity Slows Drying
High ambient moisture:
- Reduces evaporation
- Keeps pores saturated
- Traps contaminants
Even air conditioning can’t fully counter this.
Where Moisture Retention Is Most Common
Problem areas include:
- Bathrooms
- Laundry rooms
- Kitchens
- Shaded hallways
- Slab-on-grade floors
These zones rarely fully dry.
The Hidden Damage of Persistent Dampness
Wet grout encourages:
- Bacterial growth
- Odors
- Discoloration
- Surface erosion
These issues compound over time.
