I bought a hand brush, cleaning detergent, and tile supplements right away. I applied detergent and used a the hand brush to remove all the mold. The cement between the tiles also fell off little by little, so I filled them with tile supplements. I cleaned the bathroom every Sunday during 2 hour hours for about a month.
