Hello, excuse my ignorance but this is our first property. After just a couple of weeks, the waterproof grouting in our shower is showing major discolouration (going black?!) and some of it appears to be shrivelling away. So, two questions:
1. Why could this be happening?
and
2. What should we do? |

price it right!
