Having your tile and grout professionally repaired, cleaned, and sealed is one of the most noticeable improvements you can make in your home’s appearance. Tile and grout cleaning can make your whole bathroom, kitchen, or laundry room look new and smell fresh.
Many households live with a little bit of mold in their grout or tiles that have water stains. We don’t think about it unless we are right there in front of it, and then when guests are coming over, we regret not doing something about it. The next day it gets forgotten again until the next time company is coming.
Grout is installed at a slightly lower level than the tile surface. This creates small trenches that collect every bit of dirt and debris. If the surface is horizontal, like a floor, these trenches also hold water. Particles of dirt and soap scum collect in the grout channels, and since grout is a non-smooth surface, there are lots of tiny pockets to hold all of this debris material. Grout dries slower than smooth tile as well, making a possible breeding ground for mold.

Sealed and unsealed grout can both have these problems, but if your grout is unsealed, it’s going to be extra susceptible to dirt buildup and mold. Sealing is the application of a protective clear shielding material that smooths out the rough surface and makes it more difficult for debris and water to become trapped. Consider having your grout professionally sealed to make it easier to clean and require less frequent maintenance.

Restoring your home’s beautiful appearance is our primary mission, but we also have the health and safety of you and your family in mind. We certainly want to make sure that your tile and grout areas help make your rooms and living spaces attractive. And although mold and mildew removal from tile and grout is the main part of our cleaning process, it isn’t just about appearances.
Mold can germinate and form on all tile and grout surfaces, especially in your home’s high humidity areas, such as bathrooms, the kitchen, and the basement. Fort Worth compounds the high humidity the problem, making it difficult for damp rooms to dry out completely. Certain types of toxic mold are potentially dangerous to your family’s health, as they can cause or exacerbate allergies and respiratory ailments. Some of these ailments are potentially life-threatening.
Some mold varieties are easy to spot because of their highly visible greenish-black appearance, where other types are essentially invisible to the naked eye. In some cases, health problems may be directly attributable to the presence of mold in your tile and grout areas. At especially high risk are infants, pregnant women, the elderly, and those who already have an underlying respiratory condition.
Tile and grout can harbor several common household mold varieties:
When we come to your homing to clean your tile and grout, we begin by applying a cleaning agent that is pH neutral and non-toxic to humans and pets. Our experienced technicians will use a gentle high-speed scrubber to reach deep into the grout material and remove the most stubborn mold and mildew stains.
We also have a vapor steam cleaning method for complicated areas. Steam vapor cleaning uses low-moisture steam with very high surface temperatures. The steam vapor does not leave any residue or buildup inside the grout lines. This is because the steam carries the heat to the surface and penetrates the porous grout material, forcing the soil out. Our steam vapor cleaners use a boiler to superheat the water. This results in much less moisture on the surface than other so-called “steam cleaning” methods since it is actually heat doing all the work. “Dry” steam vapor, as it is known in the industry, has less than 6% humidity. It is very low moisture steam, with a surface temperature between 200 and 220 degrees Fahrenheit.
Over time, grout will begin to disintegrate. When it begins to fall apart, it becomes an even more likely spot for mold growth. If your older grout shows signs of crumbling, we can repair and replace as much of it as you would like, from a small spot repair up to completely re-grouting your whole bathroom, kitchen, or a laundry room. In cases of severe physical damage, we will recommend the removal and replacement of old grout material.
Controlling excess moisture will help prevent future mold growth around your tile and grout. After we have returned your tile and grout to their original fresh new condition, we encourage you to locate and repair any water leakages from plumbing, as well as tub and shower seals.
