Tile and Grout Cleaning

The method used to clean and seal tile and grout will vary depending on the type of tile, and also on the condition of your tile and grout. Most likely a combination of high pressure water and vacuuming will be used to remove the caked on dirt and unseen contaminants. The vacuuming process helps to pull away the excess water and the crud that gets trapped deep within the grout and tiles. For grout and tile not in their best condition our water jet process will lift the dirt and debris. After cleaning, you are given the option to seal the tile which will keep out dirt and residue in the future.

Mopping your tile floors and cleaning tile countertops, really only clean the surface of the tile and grout. Both of these surfaces are porous and they absorb dirt, liquids, water and other residues. Professional tile and grout cleaning is the best way to reach in between those hard to get porous grains removing everything within them. You can never really get your tile and grout as clean with your own techniques as you can by hiring a professional tile and grout cleaning service like Duraclean of Myrtle Beach.

When a spill occurs onto your grout the porous surface absorbs the spill. Even with the best cleaners and elbow grease, some of that liquid will remain in the pores of the grout. Over time this causes staining and damage, that will cause your grout to flake out over time. Grout sealing is important in protecting your grout from these permanant damages. There are generally two types of grout sealers and those are topical and penetrating. Duraclean of Myrtle Beach uses only one kind of sealer and that's our top grade penetrating sealers. It will not leave any sticky residue, but only a clean and natural finish that dries quickly.
