Default Re: Tile Floor - DIY

Live in Northeast AR right now. We have tile, wood and limited carpeting. Tile grout is light color and after 6 1/2 years I have a few spots that require a little extra cleaning. Tried to keep grout lines as thin as possible. We do have hight temps and humidity here from about May through Sept and one problem with wood floor is lifting in one area. Floor was acclimated before laying down and overall few problems with the wood. Tile is easy to take care of, just use a swiffer pad to clean so no extra water gets into grout that can add to problems of it staining. We've built five house and 2 resales so we have mostly had tile and wood. Sure I will do same in TV.
