Deep Cleaning Textured Ceramic Tile & Grout with Tile Doctor Pro-Clean in Ewell Surrey

I thought I would share with you this tile cleaning example from Ewell that shows what can be achieved when cleaning grubby Textured Ceramic Tiles. Textured Ceramic Tiles are often used in kitchens and wet areas due to the non-slip properties of the tile, however over time the rough surface will trap dirt that becomes increasingly difficult to shift.

In this case the customer had two dogs that often ran in from the garden and so the tile and grout had accumulated a lot of soiling. Unlike stone or clay tiles however ceramic tiles don’t need to be sealed so it’s mainly a question of scrubbing away stubborn surface dirt. The grout was also dirty however this is slightly porous and to clean this is always best to use a strong alkaline cleaning agent.

Cleaning a Ceramic Tiled Kitchen

To get the floor clean the tiler and grout was initially brushed with a strong dilution of Tile Doctor Pro-Clean and this was left to soak in. This alkaline cleaner gradually breaks down the ingrained dirt, then after ten minutes it was worked in with a 17-inch carbide brush. This removes the surface dirt and most of the dirt in the grout lines. The stubborn grout was then cleaned further the old-fashioned way using a wire brush and lots of elbow grease.

The now soiled cleaning solution was removed with a wet vacuum cleaner and the floor inspected to make sure it was as clean as possible. With the cleaning solution removed it became clear a few areas needed a bit more work so they were hand-scrubbed with more Pro-Clean. Once complete the floor dried with the wet vacuum again and then wiped down with warm water.

Once complete the floor looked fresh and clean and was ready for the customer later that afternoon.
