If you're like most people, managing your tile flooring can be a burden and a nuisance. Surprisingly though, cleaning tile and grout is one of the easier chores around the house when you follow these simple steps (between our trips to your home for the DEEP cleanings).
1) Make sure you are sweeping and mopping every other day in high traffic areas.
(It is very important to wash the mop head thoroughly to get the grimy mess out and prolong the life of the mop head)
2) When you have spills, clean them off the floors promptly.
3) When you were mopping, you may not have seen it, but you left some nastiness in the corners of the room. Use a rag that's wet and soapy to wipe down the corners of the floors. Oh, and don't forget to wipe the baseboards down because you pushed grit and grime onto them too.
*Remember to avoid using any soaps that are with oil or wax based. These will be absorbed by the porous materials in the grout and will eventually attract dirt from being walked on.
4) For those extremely nasty grout lines, start the scrubbing by using white vinegar and an old toothbrush. The vinegar will pull all the dirt and stains out of your grout lines.
As previously stated, these are tips to make sure that your floors look clean in between our DEEP cleanings by our trained technician. If you have further questions, please contact our offices at 901-624-9200 so we can put the "Cornerstone Clean" back into your tile and grout.
