Vinegar harms natural stones like limestone but is safe for ceramic tiles.
Allow air to circulate, squeegee off water, and clean regularly with a pH-neutral product. Apply a grout sealer to stop moisture from entering.
Yes, grout and stone last longer with proper sealing. Reseal porous surfaces every 1-2 years or as advised. Surfaces with frequent use need sealing every 6 months.
