tile and grout cleaningAt the very least, discolored grout is unsightly. Grout’s porous nature makes it prone to soaked-in cleaning solutions, embedded dirt particles, and mildew and mold in showers. Discoloration of grout is the biggest problem faced in our tiled spaces. It may occur quickly, and lead to a dull appearance of the tile’s surface. Dirty grout not just disparages the tile, it may be misleading. Because business owners and homeowners do not have the ability to get their grout lines clean, they’ll frequently believe it is time to replace the grout. But is that the best option?

The grout might just have to be cleaned

It is true. That unsightly grout may not be a lost cause, after all. Although you’ve spent a lot of time and a lot of energy attempting to get those stains out, the grout may be salvaged with a simplistic grout cleaning service by A Fine Shine. How is that possible? Well, the answer is steam. And not just any steam. Our powerful grout cleaner system can heat tap water to roughly 310-degrees Fahrenheit. When heated, our grout cleaning professionals have the ability to apply a surge of steam right onto the grout lines. Coming in at a scorching 600 – 800 psi, that steam penetrates the porous grout, and pushes dirt particles and contaminants out that produce discoloration.

How to tell if you require grout repair?

As you consider a regrouting job, there are a few tell-tale signs that grout repair is needed. Dreaded discoloration might trigger a regrouting project; however, more often than not, grout damage is the problem. What type of damage? Anything from fissures inside the shower’s grout or chips on the floor, to missing parts of grout from impact damage may trigger a grout repair job.

Are there any other solutions for discolored grout?

We offer another option for discolored grout, which isn’t able to be fully cleaned using a professional grout cleaning. Grout color sealing may pick up where deep-cleaning left off.
