Grout is not adhering properly.

Ensure the tile edges are clean and free from dust or debris. The surface should be slightly damp before applying the grout.

Grout is cracking after setting.

Apply the grout within the temperature range of -20°C to 50°C and avoid applying it too thick. Make sure the grout is not drying too quickly, consider working in small sections and avoid direct sunlight exposure.

Grout color appears uneven.

Ensure consistent application and wiping technique. Check the lighting conditions, as they can affect how the color appears.

Mould is growing on the grout.

Clean the area with a mould remover specifically designed for grout. Ensure proper ventilation in the area, and consider the application of a grout sealant for additional protection.
