We finally got our tile floor and backsplash finished. I am going to do the sealing. I am wondering if I need to go through the headache of sealing under the fridge? I have a small kitchen so the fridge will be blocking part of the kitchen if I pull it out to seal. which isnt that big of a deal but I am wondering if I am being to anal. hubby says I dont need to.

I would seal it one day first, then the rest the next day...

The tile under your fridge looks go from my house.

I would seal it nevertheless. It's not so much more work. It could be that some water might run under the fridge (through a leak or whatever, such things happen) then you're on the safe side.

Congratulations on nearing the end of a long-haul project! Don't skimp now: a little more work for the peace of mind of having done it ALL RIGHT is worth the extra effort. (Plus, it takes just one spill from the fridge to make you worry. You don't want to contend with that mental demon!)
