        "text": "Generally, glazed ceramic tiles do not require sealing because their surface is non-porous and resistant to stains and moisture. However, the grout lines between ceramic tiles should always be sealed. Grout is porous and can absorb liquids, leading to staining and mold growth if left unsealed. If you have unglazed ceramic tiles, which are more porous, then both the tiles and the grout will need to be sealed to protect them from stains and moisture.",
