Tackle the tiles. While you’re in spring-cleaning mode, pay attention to worn grout between floor tiles in the bathroom or kitchen. A small crack in the grout or caulk can lead to an expensive repair later. If necessary, re-seal as soon as possible. For the bath, get into the habit of wiping down shower walls and tub after each use to eliminate soap and scum build-up.The bottom line is a message you hear about your automobile time and time again: Preventive maintenance is crucial. Keep your home happy and in tip-top shape with regular check-ups to save you the headache of emergency repairs from season to season.
