STATEN ISLAND, N.Y., May 24, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ – Mold and mildew are unrelenting parasites that feast in the shower and bath areas of our homes. Their mere presence is unsightly, unhealthy, costly and, at times, embarrassing for the homeowners.
The battle to prevent an home invasion of mold and mildew may seem futile, but it doesn't have to be that way.
"Part of the solution rests upon the type of grout being used," said shower systems expert Tony Vanario, president of Richmond Tile & Bath. "Mold and mildew feast on most types of grout. If you remove their source of food, you're preventing a mold and mildew problem from even getting started."
Richmond Tile & Bath suggests replacing traditional grouts with the cutting-edge products of StarQuartz, the inventor and leading manufacturer of Urethane Grout Technology.
"It's truly amazing. These revolutionary urethane grouts are highly resistant to mold, mildew and staining," Vanario said.
StarQuartz's urethane grouts are a logical complement to wedi® products, which "provide an opportunity to construct entire bath systems in a totally waterproof environment," Vanario said.
"StarQuartz's QuartzLock and StarGlass Grouts are arguably the best choice you can make when replacing or upgrading common grouts," he added.
"The manufacturer's urethane grouts are very easy to clean," Vanario said. "They're nonporous and not as brittle as conventional grouts, so they are less likely to crack."
