The Tile Cleaning Problem

Seemingly smooth surfaces become scratched and dulled from daily abrasion that in turn creates micro hiding places for dirt, oils, and bacteria. The condition worsens in a short amount of time and creates an unacceptable floor that cannot be cleaned by mop and bucket. When you wax over this ugly surface it only seals in the worn dirty look.

The newer ceramic tile flooring creates a problem on two fronts. First, the tile surfaces are engineered with more texture than ever before making the mop less useful and effective. Secondly, and even more noticeable and problematic, the grout between the tiles has even more texture to trap dirt residue left by mopping.

The Grout Cleaning Problem

The problem is the cementitious lime based grout easily absorbs moisture, oils and sugars that in turn attract bacteria, dirt and other solids that change the overall appearance by darkening the grout. Other porous surfaces like brick, Italian quarry- tile, limestone and other engineered flooring all acts like concrete or grout, absorbing liquids, oils and dirt to a point that their appearance also darkens with time.

Chemicals can dilute the grime well enough, but without effective removal the formed slurry only soaks deeper into the grout. Rotary scrubbers fail to reach into the grout lines or the texture of the tiles. Tile and grout is often associated with food halls, restaurants, rest rooms and leisure areas. Dirty tile and grout is not aesthetically pleasing. More importantly it is unhygienic. Bacteria collects in the grout lines along with oils, food matter, sugars and moisture. The final "mop and bucket "of the day further exacerbates the problem further adding more moisture and dirt.

Historically this has been tackled by either labour intensively scrubbing with nail brushes and detergents or accepting that after a number of years lifting and relaying the tile and grout surface. This is clearly :

• Very expensive

• Lost business while establishment is closed

• Disruption to clientele and staff

The Tile Cleaning Solution

The new approach to this old problem is the use of the right tools.

Tile and Grout Cleaning tools have the ability to do more than dilute and suspend the dirt. The combination of hot water, high pressure, emulsifier and vacuum creates a one step cleaning process. First the dirt, bacteria and grime is released from its anchoring position by applying an emulsifier. The pressurised water seeks out unwanted grime, bacteria and chemical residues hidden in microscopic pockets within the tile and grout. Finally suction removes the dirty water and leaves the tile and grout clean.

Tile Recolouring Ringwood East

It is normally possible to both recolor and seal grout used with man-made tiles. The process is called Colour Sealing. This can be done either at installation or as part of a restorative treatment. The process has the following benefits;

1. It provides complete uniformity of grout colour; replacing the previously discoloured or faded appearance

2. It protects grout against mildew and orange/yellow staining

3. It prevents the ingress of liquids including urine and the associated smell that results

4. It makes treated areas look lighter, brighter and cleaner; as if they have been refurbished

Grout Sealing Ringwood East

Once a thorough tile and grout cleaning process has been completed it is then ready to be sealed. Our Tile Cleaner will apply a specialist sealer/impregnator which will help to protect your freshly cleaned floor along with making it easier for you to maintain.

This is an important part of the process as grout is very porous. By not sealing the grout would mean that any spillage would be absorbed causing further staining, also when carrying out general cleaning the dirty water would be absorbed.

Residential Tile and Grout Cleaning Ringwood East

Over time, tile floors and surfaces lose their shine and luster. Scrubbing and mopping do not generally yield the results needed for a deep clean. Because grout is porous and absorbs all the dirt and debris on it, mopping only removes surface soil and not the embedded dirt that causes the grout to become dull. Lotus Tile and Grout Cleaning Ringwood East can restore tile and grout to a better clean. Our grout-sealing product helps maintain the cleaned grout for months and makes your regular home maintenance more effective.

Tile and Grout Restoration

At Lotus Cleaning Ringwood East, Tile and Grout Cleaning’s most popular service is that of cleaning, restoring and where necessary and appropriate, the sealing of all tiled floor types.

Tile floor types we can clean

Many types of manmade and natural material can be used in tiles to create luxury flooring. Every one of these materials has it’s own nuances when it comes to cleaning, sealing and restoring, with many different effects being possible. You can find out more about many of the types of tile that we work with below. It is vitally important to know what type of tile or stone floor you have in order to select the right cleaning processes and products to use. We not only adapt our working process to the material, but also your unique needs. All types of tile floor are an investment that should be protected, and used to enhance your home.

How we can restore and maintain your tile floors?

We will use a process and set of products that will get the best possible results for your situation. It is our years of experience and advanced training that enable us to get you a superior finish for your floor.

First, we will normally remove any existing sealant and get rid of any contaminants. We have a wide range of techniques to do this to ensure that your floor is not damaged by the process. Once the relevant solutions are applied to the floor, they are worked into the surface. The solution is then left to dwell for a short period of time.

Once the dwell time has been achieved, the floor is then washed with our powerful fresh water extractor systems to ensure that all old sealers, dirt and other contaminants are removed from the tile or stone surface. The next stage is normally to enhance the surface that has been revealed. This may include some kind of stone polishing Ringwood East or buffing, depending on the finish you wish to achieve.

The surface is then washed over a few times to ensure that the floor is completely neutralised and free of any soiling. Once the floor is dry the appropriated sealers are applied, the sealers range from impregnating sealers which will not affect the look of the tile or stone, to matt, satin or high solid gloss finishes. Lotus Tile and Grout Cleaning Ringwood East will give you advice on the most appropriate sealer to use for maximum effect on your tile or stone floor.

Tile Stripping Ringwood East

Tile stripping Ringwood East is removing a thin layer of grout to remove stains and allow the grout’s natural color to appear. Once completed the grout should be resealed to boost stain resistance going forward. This process is suitable for non sanded grout typically used with marble, limestone, travertine, and other soft natural stones.

Tile Regrouting Ringwood East

Tile Regrouting is designed to replace broken on missing grout with new grout. When faced with broken or missing grout it is important that the root cause be determined else the new grout may also break and be lost. Possible causes include an improper initial installation or building movement. The pattern of breaks is often sufficient to enable a trained craftsman to read the cause and begin to assess long term feasibility and repair options. Once the decision to regrout has been made, the old grout must be cut out such that sufficient installed tile edge is available for the new grout to properly bond to it. Please note, simply wiping in new grout over old grout will result in a failure as new grout does not bond well to old grout. Tile Re-caulking or Tile caulking may also be required if working in a corner where two walls are coming together in a shower or wet environment. Caulk has greater movement capability allowing it to maintain seal integrity under movement conditions which would split grout.
