Professional-grade grout restoration for bathroom tile, kitchen backsplash, shower enclosures, and floor tile. Results a mop and bucket simply can't deliver. Optional sealing available.
Grout is porous by nature. Every time a floor is mopped or a shower is rinsed, dirty water is pushed into the grout lines — where it stays. Surface-level cleaning doesn't reach it. Standard tile cleaners aren't formulated to extract what's embedded in the pores of aged grout.
Professional tile and grout cleaning uses high-pressure hot water extraction combined with pH-appropriate chemistry — agitating the grout, breaking down embedded soil, and extracting it completely. The result is often dramatically different from anything achievable with household products.
We select the correct cleaning chemistry for each tile type and grout colour — ensuring the tile face is protected and the grout is cleaned without being damaged or etched.
Bathroom grout is exposed to soap scum, hard water minerals, body oils, and humidity every day. We restore bathroom tile floors, walls, and shower surrounds to a clean that looks like the grout was just laid — not like it's been accumulating for years.
Shower grout is among the most challenging to clean — soap scum and hard water combine with mildew growth in the grout pores. We address all of it: grout lines, silicone joints, tile faces, and glass panels — without damaging caulking or glazed surfaces.
Grease, cooking residue, and food splatter embed in kitchen tile grout over time. We restore backsplash and countertop tile — removing years of buildup that regular cleaning misses.
Entryways, mudrooms, laundry rooms, and main floor tile — high-traffic tile areas accumulate ground-in dirt that routine mopping redistributes rather than removes. Our extraction process lifts it out completely, restoring the original grout colour.
Once your grout is professionally cleaned, sealing it is the smartest thing you can do to protect the result. A quality grout sealer penetrates the pores of the grout, creating a barrier that repels water, oil, and staining agents.
Sealed grout is dramatically easier to maintain — routine cleaning actually works on it because soil can't embed in the pores the way it does on unsealed grout.
Benefits of Sealing
We assess tile type, grout condition, and soiling level before any product is applied. The correct chemistry is selected based on what we're actually dealing with — alkaline for organic soiling, acidic for mineral deposits. The tile face is always protected from chemistry that could etch or damage the glaze.
Grout lines receive a targeted pre-treatment application — dwell time is what breaks down embedded deposits before extraction. Tile faces are pre-cleaned of surface soiling. Stubborn mineral buildup and stained grout get additional treatment time before the extraction pass begins.
High-pressure hot water extraction is worked systematically across the tiled surface — grout lines cleaned and extracted section by section. The process is methodical, not random — each area is fully addressed before advancing. Residual chemistry is flushed completely so nothing is left sitting in the pores.
Where sealing is included in the scope, sealer is applied to clean, dry grout lines following extraction — locking in the result and slowing re-soiling significantly. We walk the full scope on completion and inspect the finished surface before packing up. Anything that needs attention is fixed before we leave.
