Home Repair........Ceramic Tile?

I have ceramic tile throughout home and in kitchen around one tile the grout or whatever the stuff is between the tile has crumbled and is getting bigger. Can i seal it myself,with what? or do i need to hire a stud to fix it?

Answer:

Hire the stud it sounds like you don't want to do this, but to have some handsome well chiseled hunk to watch work.
you can go and get it at lowes or home deport and sealing it is like cleaning your windows it is very easy to do, but if you still want a stud just call me
The moisture is deterioratng the grout around your sink , you need to get it out ,regrout and seal the grout.Get help.
You can go to the hardware store to get a kit to fix it but, if the cracks are growing or continueing further to other tiles you might have a problem with the underlayment. Fix the area now with a kit and keep a close eye on it. If the cracks come back and or start to show in other places don't waste your time with patching. The underlayment is very critical for tile, it must be flat and secured very well. If not you can get flexing in the floor from movement which will cause cracks.
Go to local hardware store and ask for grout repair.
