Tile and grout flooring looks great and is hard wearing enough to last for years. Over time you will find that tiled surfaces start to look worn, losing their shine. Clean grout lines will eventually collect dirt and lose their colour. The result is a dull floor that looks old and is often covered with bacteria.
TileMaster Bath are a specialist tile and grout floor restoration team in Bath who can rejuvenate your hard floors. Our team has the knowledge and experience needed to deliver top class results. Our team can scrub out stains and marks from the tiles, buff out scratches, and apply a protective sealant which will protect the tiles in future. A professional seal will repel dirt and you will find the floors much simpler to maintain when the work is done.
When does your tile and grout need cleaning?
Planning how regularly to have your tile and grout floor professionally cleaned will depend on a variety of factors. Commercial tile floors need cleaning more often than those in residential settings. However, if you have children or pets then more regular deep cleaning is a must in order to prevent any build up of bacteria.
Here are some common problems with tile floors that customers should be mindful of. Our Bath-based team can assist you with any of the following issues typic of tiled floors:
- Loose or wobbly tiles
- Worn out grouting
- Dull and faded tiles lacking in colour
- Uneven or sharp edges
- Dirt which won’t sweep away
- Tiles that are difficult to clean
- Permanent marks on the tiles
- Tiles that look old
As well as booking a professional clean, it is also important to dust and sweep the floor at least once a week. This prevents debris from scratching the floor while you’re walking on it.
