A pre-purchase building and pest inspection on a home in Malaga uncovered several areas where the grout had chipped or worn away, particularly in the shower recesses. Damaged or missing grout in wet areas results in water getting between and under tiles. This can weaken the glue holding the tiles down and damage the waterproofing integrity of the area. If waterproofing is no longer effective, significant water damage and mould can occur, not just in the bathroom, but also adjoining rooms can be affected.
