Tile and Grout Cleaning San Diego
Tiles, whether stone or ceramic, are a great way of brightening up the appearance of your kitchen or bathroom. Tiles come in all sorts of styles and patterns nowadays, allowing you to replicate the appearance of more expensive materials at a much more affordable cost. They’re also great for the exterior of your home too, and can transform an entryway into a much more luxurious area. Whether they’re on your bathroom walls or your backyard patio, stone and ceramic tiles are a core part of many people’s homes. As the best tile and grout cleaning company in San Diego, we can make these areas of your home look spotless and good as new.
Yet while tiles undoubtedly look great, they still need care and attention to remain looking their best. If you don’t regularly clean your stone, tile and grout flooring, then before you know it, mold and dirt will start to build up across them. Since many of these materials have porous surfaces, the bacteria could be lurking beneath the surface, so you need to make sure you get right in there to remove them. No one wants to put their family’s health at risk, and it’s especially important to keep kitchen tiles clean, since this is where your food is prepared. Although mopping and sweeping the floor will undoubtedly help, you’ll need to go one step further to get a deep clean that actually keeps your floors and tiles free from germs.
One option is to tackle the problem yourself. In that case, you’ll have to get down on your hands and knees with a toothbrush and start scrubbing at the tiles. However, this can be an exhausting process that takes many hours to complete, and even if you go through all that, you still likely won’t have solved the problem completely. Luckily, though, there is another solution- let the experts at Smart Dry Carpet Cleaning take care of things for you!
While most people know us for our outstanding carpet spot and stain cleaning service, we also provide a professional stone, tile and grout cleaning service, too. We know all there is to know about cleaning, meaning we can completely eradicate any germs and bacteria which may be present in your stone and tiles. Not only will we leave your floors and surfaces sparkling clean, but you can also rest assured that they are completely safe for your kids and pets, too. Hire us, and we’ll give you the most effective clean you’ve ever had- guaranteed!
Don’t just take our word for it, though. We recently hired an independent laboratory to check the effectiveness of our cleaning processes for tile, stone, and grout, to ensure that we’re doing a great job. After testing multiple homes after we had done out work, they found that we managed to remove around 99% of bacteria from these surfaces- meaning your home will be as clean as can be when you work with us!
Keeping Your Home Clean and Hygienic
As well as ensuring that your home looks clean and tidy and protecting the materials themselves, stone, tile, and grout cleaning also has an even more important purpose. While you might think that your home is where you and your family are safest, studies have found that on average, the inside of your house is around twice as polluted as the air outside- and in some cases, it can be much, much more than that. Dust, dirt, and allergens can quickly build up inside your home, leading to allergic reactions and chronic illnesses like asthma. Don’t allow this to happen to your family- instead, it’s time to take steps to keep your home as clean as possible and give you and family allergy relief.
That being said, it’s important that you make the right choices when it comes to the cleaning products used inside your home. Some of these can have a harmful effect on your health as well- but that’s not a concern when working with Smart Dry Carpet Cleaning. With our green carpet cleaning process, we only use eco-friendly cleaning products that are completely safe for use around both humans and pets, so you’ve got nothing to worry about!
Using the most advanced equipment and techniques available, we’ll penetrate deep into the porous surface of your tile, stone, and grout to completely eliminate all bacteria inside. It leaves your floors and tiles looking great, and it also destroys all the dirt and bacteria that you can’t see. We provide much better results than you could ever achieve by yourself, because we use deep-cleaning extraction equipment to eradicate dirt build-up. When we’re done, your house will be cleaner than it has ever been before. We are ready to tackle any residential cleaning or commercial cleaning project at a moment’s notice!
It’s not just the tiles themselves that you need to take care of, either. Even if the tiles and stone look clean, the grout used to fit them is extremely porous, and therefore sucks up anything that it comes into contact with. It can be tricky to get all of this material out of your grout, but we take the time to clean deep into the grouting to keep it free from dirt, dust, and bacteria. After we’re done, we also apply a special sealant which will protect the grout from any further spillages. This gives you more time to clean them up before they soak into the grout, so give you a long-lasting clean you can rely on.
Our expert cleaning technicians have all been highly trained in tile, stone, and grout cleaning, so they always know the best way to approach a project. We begin by carefully testing the tiles or stone to determine the precise material used to make them. This knowledge allows us to tailor our approach accordingly, and use products which won’t cause any damage to the tiles or stone. Some materials, such as marble or limestone, are particularly vulnerable to acids- which is why we never use harsh chemicals when cleaning tiles and stone floors.
Before we start cleaning, our expert cleaning technicians will also tape off the area to be cleaned. This ensures that no other surfaces are damaged, and allows us to easily remove any dry soil and surface dirt and dust at this early stage. With that removed, we’re more able to tackle the dirt that’s deep within the material, meaning our method provides the very best results around!
Throughout the entire process, Smart Dry’s cleaning technicians also carry out a range of quality checks, to be certain that we’re eradicating every last speck of dirt and dust. We are so confident in our work that we offer a 30-day guarantee, so you have plenty of time to call us back if the job wasn’t up to your standards. We don’t just go over the stone floor or tiles once and then hope for the best. Instead, we like to do things thoroughly, to get your stone, tiles, and grout as clean as possible. It doesn’t stop there, either. The very moment that we finish cleaning, we immediately apply specially formulated sealants to the surface, to block out any dirt from entering the material afterwards. This keeps your tiles and floors spotless for longer, and means you can go back to using them just hours after we’ve performed the clean. We also offer a range of other extra services, and if you so desire, from polishing to grout recoloring- just let us know what you need, and we’ll be happy to provide!
Our service covers a huge range of different materials, including:
- Ceramic
- Granite
- Porcelain
- Slate
- Saltillo
- Travertine
- Concrete
Don’t put up with soiled or dirty tiles and stone. Instead, let the experts at Smart Dry Carpet cleaning provide your stone and tiles with a penetrating deep clean that will keep your home clean and hygienic- as well as looking great- for a long time to come.
Before our cleaning technicians arrive, we ask that you prepare the area to be cleaned. This will allow us to get the job done as quickly as possible, and minimize any disruption to your normal routine. First of all, make sure any tripping hazards, including small objects like shoes and kids toys, are put away beforehand. It’s especially important that you clear any countertops that are to be cleaned, especially with breakable objects like mugs and plates.
If you’re getting a stone or tile floor cleaned, then you’ll need to remove any floor coverings such as area rugs so that our technicians can easily clean the entire surface. By having full access to the floor, we’re able to use a deep cleaning approach that really works wonders. If you’ve got rugs that you would also like cleaned, then let us know before we arrive- we’ll be happy to thoroughly clean these during our visit, too!
Naturally, any large furniture like chairs, kitchen tables, and patio furniture will need to be moved well out of the way. Once the area has been cleaned, please wait for the sealant we apply to dry thoroughly before you put this furniture back, or you run the risk of dislodging it.
It’s also a good ideal to sweep your floors before we come to cleaning. There’s no need to go all out- after all, we are the best tile and grout cleaning company in San Diego, and we are ready to tackle any task at hand. We’re the ones who are going to be doing the hard work- but if you could get rid of any surface dirt like crumbs or litter, then this will allow our technicians to get to work much quicker. You should also ensure that we’ve got a clear path from the front door to the area that’s going to be cleaned, so we can easily get our equipment in and out without anything getting damaged. Ideally, our technicians will want to park as close as they can to your front door, so if you could move your car to give them some space, that would be great, too.
