Cleaning tile grout can be an extremely tough, tedious, back breaking job. You spend hours on you hands and knees scrubbing the grout lines, just to see them get dirty within a month or two later. Grout is very porous, therefore everything that touches the grout is absorbed directly into it. Any and all spills are directly absorbed into the grout immediately. This makes it impossible to clean, because the liquid is actually deep into the grout opposed to sitting on the surface.
The #1 cause of dirty, discolored grout lines is due to failure to clean the the grout regularly. When you start mopping the floor the dirt from the tile and grout is turned into a liquid that is immediately soaked up by the porous grout. The more you mop your floor the dirtier and darker your grout lines become. The dirty water from your mop bucket is darkening your grout with every stroke of the mop. However, there are solutions to dirty, discolored grout lines!
Removing the grout completely from the tile and replacing it with new grout is a tactic that some homeowners and businesses use. This process is extremely messy, dusty, expensive and takes days to weeks to complete. This process has to be done with extreme perfection and precision to avoid cracking or chipping the tile. Once the old grout is removed and the new grout is installed it will only be a matter of weeks before you are right back where you started with dirty, discolored grout lines!
Steam Cleaning grout lines or using rotary machines has become a very popular method over the past several years. Cleaning grout lines with this method can be effective on the surface dirt but can not eliminate the stains and discoloration that are deep in the grout. Steam cleaning alone can only remove a small fraction of the stains and bacteria and can cause significant damage to both the tile and the grout. High pressure cleaning and rotary machines weaken the grout lines by removing layers of the grout and forcing water under the tile. Over time the grout will begin to deteriorate, crack, and eventually crumble out. Once the grout begins to deteriorate and weaken water will begin to build up under the tile causing the tile to loose, crack and buckle.
Color sealing grout is the most effective and efficient technique to obtain perfect, stain free grout lines. The process starts by using a mild cleansing product that will remove all surface dirt and bacteria. Once the grout has been cleaned a color sealer will be applied to the grout lines that will fill all the holes and cracks that make grout porous. Our color sealer can be matched to any shade or color. The customer can choose to go back to the original color or completely change the color of the grout to match the tile or décor of their home or business.
Once our color sealer has been applied, the grout lines are permanently protected from any stains, bacteria or discoloration. Our color sealing process is typically done in 1 day and does not create and dust or mess. By the time our technicians are done the grout can be walked on as normal. Our color sealing process is always guaranteed against cracking, chipping and peeling to ensure a lifetime of perfect stain free grout lines!
