Grout is what’s used to fill the joints between tiles, and is usually selected together with mortar. Grout is normally a cement-based filling. One of the downsides of tile splashbacks is that grout can be difficult to maintain, and may get dirty or mouldy in wet areas.
Splashbacks in wet areas in general will need to be properly waterproofed using a special membrane, so that even if the grouting on the tiles fails and lets water through, the structure of your house won’t be threatened by rot.
Tiles themselves are pretty tough and rarely fail – in most cases, if tile splashbacks do have problems it’s because grouting or adhesive has been improperly prepared or has grown ineffective.
