Identifying Bathroom Mildew

Bathroom mold and mildew can typically be seen. However, here are some other signs to determine whether your bathroom needs professional cleaning:

  • Musty odor
  • Mold in the corners
  • Mildew along grout or caulk
  • Standing water on the floor or another surface

These signs typically point to mold or mildew growth. Whether it’s already happened or not, it’s important to thoroughly clean the area. Mildew can quickly damage water barriers throughout your commercial bathroom, including mold and grout.

Replacing Grout and Caulk

While mold cleaning solutions and mildewcide are effective mold and mildew clean techniques, sometimes the problem is deeper than a surface solution can handle. In that case, it may be time to completely remove and replace your grout or caulk.

Grout in between bathroom tiles and caulk along the edges of fixtures are common areas for mildew to grow in a commercial bathroom. Because of the porous nature of grout, it’s essential to completely remove it and replace it to ensure a thorough cleaning.

However, improper removal and installation of these materials can compromise the waterproof barrier and allow water to collect behind sinks, under toilets and in corners of your commercial bathroom. Choose a professional remediation service to maintain the high cleanliness of your business bathroom.
