The kitchen is an area that is prone to moisture.
There can be spills and splashes when you are working in the kitchen and little by little, the moisture can seem through the grout and affect the underlying substrate. This can cause damage to it as well. But when you regrout, this will create a protective barrier so that water is not able to seep inside. When water is seeping into the underlying structure through cracks in the grout, it can lead to expensive water damage repairs. Grout has a functional aspect as well. This is what holds the tiles in place. But with time, grout can deteriorate and the bond between the tiles and the grout can become weak. You can strengthen this bond by regrouting.
