Bradenton Tile & Grout Cleaning 

• Be sure to use neutral pH cleaners or cleaners made specifically for tile. To keep a pristine appearance, mop your tile 2 to 3 times per week.

• Some professionals recommend this technique:

• Mix 1 capful of dishwashing liquid per gallon of hot water. Mop up excess water and allow to dry. Buff with a dry towel to reduce spotting.

• What not to use: Some cleaning products contain lemon, vinegar, bleach, ammonia. A common recommendation is to use vinegar water to mop tile. Stay away from these products on your tile floors. Also stay way from scouring powders. Repeated use will remove your sealer, wear away your grout, and in some cases strip the pigmentation from colored grout.

Something else to avoid using on your tile floors is any kind of wax. It can create a film or a haze over your tile and grout, and be a mess to clean off.

Avoid using these altogether on tile, including a famous one that ends with the word “Glo”.

Without sealing grout, it will return to a dirty state rather quickly.

When you mop your floor, the water naturally seeks out the lowest spot on the floor. It settles in the grout lines. Soils make their way into the grout along with the water and settle there as the moisture evaporates. Left behind is soil and a detergent residue that binds the soil to the grout, leaving you with discolored grout lines.

By sealing the grout, a barrier is formed between the grout and the dirt, allowing you time to clean it before the dirt penetrates into the grout.

Sealing your grout will also help prolong its beauty and life span.

The manufacturer of the grout sealer we use rates the expected wear as 3-5 years on interior surfaces.

Of course, this can vary depending on the amount of traffic the floors receive.

The Ceramic Tile Council of America recommends sealing once a year, as the tile installation breathes thereby opening microscopic fissures in the grout.

We would never disagree with The Ceramic Tile Council of America but a general rule of thumb realistic for most homeowners is to reseal high traffic areas every 2-3 years.

A full cure is achieved after 24-48 hours, but foot traffic may begin in 4 hours.

The manufacturer recommends you cover the tile with red rosin paper if foot traffic must resume before the recommended time periods have passed.
