WHY GROUT GETS DIRTY OVER TIME AND HOW TO RESTORE ITS FRESH LOOK

Quality Tile Care • Sep 09, 2024

Grout is an essential part of any tile installation, whether on floors, walls, or countertops. Over time, however, grout can become discolored, stained, and dirty, detracting from the overall appearance of your tile surfaces. At Quality Tile Care, we specialise in professional tile and grout cleaning services across Greater Manchester, Liverpool, Cheshire, Lancashire, and Derbyshire, helping you restore the fresh look of your grout.

 

Why Does Grout Get Dirty?

 

Grout is a porous material, meaning it absorbs dirt, liquids, and contaminants over time. Here are some reasons grout becomes dirty and stained:


  • Porosity: Grout easily absorbs spills and grime, leading to discoloration, especially in high-traffic areas like kitchens and bathrooms.
  • Mould and Mildew: Humid environments, such as bathrooms, encourage mould and mildew growth, causing grout to turn black or green.
  • Improper Cleaning: Using harsh cleaning products or dirty water during mopping can worsen grout stains by stripping away its protective sealant and spreading grime.
  • Foot Traffic: Dirt and dust brought in by foot traffic can settle into grout lines, making them look dull.
  • Aging Sealant: Over time, the protective sealant on grout wears away, leaving the grout more vulnerable to dirt and stains.

How to Restore and Maintain Clean Grout

 

Maintaining clean grout can be challenging, but with the right techniques, you can keep it looking fresh:


Regular Cleaning: Sweep and mop tiles regularly using a pH-neutral cleaner designed for tile and grout to prevent dirt from settling.

Re-Sealing: Re-seal grout every 1-2 years to create a protective barrier against stains.

Professional Tile and Grout Cleaning: If DIY methods aren't enough, contact Quality Tile Care. Our expert technicians use advanced cleaning techniques and professional-grade products to deep clean grout and restore its original look.

PATIO RESTORATION IN WESTHOUGHTON BY QUALITY TILE CARE. Patio cleaning, regrouting with Easyjoint
by Quality Tile Care 17 Sept, 2024
At Quality Tile Care, we love bringing outdoor spaces back to life, and our recent patio renovation project in Westhoughton showcases our dedication to quality and detail. This patio had seen better days, with algae, black spots, and worn-out grout making it look tired and aged. We're thrilled to share how we completely transformed it into a fresh and inviting space once again. Step 1: Old Grout Removal Our renovation process began with the careful removal of the old brush-in grout. The existing grout had been incorrectly applied by a previous business and was already coming loose in several areas. We meticulously removed all the old grout, ensuring a clean and smooth surface to work with. This step was crucial in preparing the patio for a fresh application, setting the foundation for a long-lasting finish.
