WestBay Maintenance

• Wash regularly with a diluted mild detergent or a pH-balanced cleaner specially formulated for ceramic & porcelain to remove dirt and grit.
• Seal grout thirty (30) days after installation or after its cured with a penetrating solvent based sealer. This should be done periodically, once a year after that for general maintenance. This preventative measure to avoid staining and/or penetration of liquids into the grout.
• All horizontal and vertical corners should be caulked with a good silicone caulk in showers, on tub decks, and backsplashes.
• Cracked or missing grout must be replaced.
• Make sure to have a strong fan in the area of your shower to remove moisture during use. Leave your shower door open after use to promote air circulation and to expedite drying.
  
  Note: All surfaces installed in wet areas are susceptible to water damage. Regular maintenance is a must!
