Ask your QuestionMy shower tiles have changed colour. Why has this happened? How can I stop it happening again?
"Tiles only really change colour when they are subject to excess water ingress. I would guess that being in the shower area, water has found a way behind the tiles whether that be through failed grout or Silicone. I would firstly assess these areas and consider the plan of action from your findings. Hope this helps."

Answered on 18th Feb 2021 - Member since Jan 2020 - report"Hi there.
Tiles will never change color but what would normally happen is scale building up after a period oft time due to hard water.
Would need cleaning regularly."
"Is it the grout that has changed colour or the actual tiles? I have only seen tiles fade in conservatory’s with sunlight, never in a bathroom! If it is the grout it will be down to cleaning products you are using, it could even be down to sponge or cloth used?"
