Are you embarrassed by your dingy tile floors and grout? When you first moved in the tiles were white and the grout light grey, but now they vary from any color of dirty white to black in areas, and the dirt is noticeable. You mop them regularly and even resorted to scrubbing the grout with a toothbrush on your hands and knees. After hours of cleaning it isn’t yet evident that you touched them at all.
That’s why you should be hiring a professional tile cleaner Brisbane today. The fact is that grout is an extremely porous material, so no matter how much you clean, it will absorb dust, dirt, and liquids which will begin to show on the surface. The areas that get more foot traffic are going to show the most staining, while areas that rarely see feet will look as clean as the day they were put in. That inconsistency is what makes the discoloration stand out. Tile and grout cleaners in Brisbane can bring your grout back to the intended color.
They will begin by inspecting your floors to be sure they know the materials involved and decide which cleaning solutions and method to use. Most businesses will be able to work with a variety of different tile materials, including concrete, slate, porcelain, travertine, granite, and ceramic. The method they use to clean your floors will vary some depending on what is considered safe and effective for your tile.
All methods will involve spraying a solution on the tile, which is allowed to penetrate into the dirt and grout to loosen up the soils for cleaning. Next, they will begin the process of cleaning the floor, which may involve a tool with rotating brushes to agitate the dirt and pull it off the surface, or they may elect for steam cleaning, which will penetrate further into your grout to help pull out all the soil that has been absorbed. The use of a vacuum or extraction tool may also be employed at the end to clear the surface of all remaining loose debris.
If that doesn’t completely do the job for your grout, as sometimes cleaning just isn’t enough, most professional tile cleaners in Brisbane can cover your grout with a colored sealant. They will consult with you as to the original or desired color and find a match that works perfectly with your tiles. Once the sealant is applied, your grout will be consistent in color and protected from dirt and spills being quickly absorbed. If the cleaning is successful on its own and the grout looks consistent throughout the area, there is a colorless sealant they can use to help prevent staining in the future. Many tile cleaner Wollongong can handle both your tile and grout but some may offer more services or may be able to clean a wider variety of materials. Some offer stone polishing, sanitizing, granite or tile restoration, and sealants for your natural stone tiles, so look around before choosing who to hire.
