Say Goodbye to Hard Work: Professional Tile and Grout Cleaning.
Cleaning tile floors by hand is hard work. It’s messy, uncomfortable and impossible to get the deep-clean results that come with professional tile and grout cleaning.
This is because regular mopping will never reach the hidden dirt that lies deep within the pores of your grout lines. Grout is a porous material and it collects dirt, grime and spills, often discoloring the surface.
How we clean tile & Grout step by step
STEP 1. INSPECTION
We inspect to determine the type of surface we are cleaning and to select the appropriate cleaning product. We also look for cracks or chips in the grout to bring to your attention.
STEP 2. MOVE FURNITURE
We move most furniture, although there will be extra charges for moving appliances and heavy furniture
STEP 3. “MAGIC SQUARE”
We will pre-clean one of the worst areas to determine that the results are what you expect. Most of the time the results are dramatic, however, if the grout was not sealed and is deeply stained no amount of cleaning will remove deeply set permanent stains.
Benefit: We would rather test a small area than spend hours only to find that the results were not up to your expectations. In some cases, there could be a minimum charge incurred.
STEP 4. PRE-CLEAN – (WASH STEP)
The appropriate cleaning agent is applied.
Benefit: Only safe nontoxic cleaning solutions are used, they will safely loosen, emulsify and suspend deeply embedded soils.
STEP 5. AGITATION
A special grout brush and machine are used to agitate the solution.
Benefit: This step further loosens ground-in soil.
STEP 6. DWELL TIME
The cleaning solutions are allowed ample time to work their magic.
Benefit: Allowing cleaning agents more time to penetrate deeper into porous grout and stone is the only way to completely loosen deeply embedded soil and stains.
STEP 7. EDGE/CORNER DETAILING
We have special tools designed to get into edges, corners and walls.
Benefit: Nothing is missed, difficult areas that may have been neglected are now cleaned.
STEP 8. CLEAN, RINSE & NEUTRALIZE
The cleaning solutions are allowed ample time to work their magic.
Benefit: Allowing cleaning agents more time to penetrate deeper into porous grout and stone is the only way to completely loosen deeply embedded soil and stains.
