        "text": "The frequency of grout sealing depends on several factors, including the type of sealant used, the amount of traffic in the area, and the environment. High-traffic areas like kitchen floors or shower walls may require sealing every 1-2 years. Lower-traffic areas, such as a guest bathroom, might only need re-sealing every 3-5 years. The type of grout (sanded vs. unsanded) and whether it's an epoxy grout also influences this, as epoxy grout often doesn't require sealing. Regular observation for water absorption is a good indicator.",
