Once the tile is grouted, it should cure for 72 hours. Most
manufacturers suggest letting the tile set 24 or more hours before
grouting, follow their directions. I would highly recommend this

I would like to tile my utility room where I keep a lot of junk,
storage and
heavy racks. I will need to move all my stuff to one side of
the room, tile
the other side, grout it, wait for it to cure, then move
everything (racks,
boxes and other things) to that side, then tile the other side.

How long do I need to wait after I tiled one side before I can
move heavy
things on top of the new tiles so I can do the other side?

A week? 10 days? A month or even longer?
