Professionally installed tile and grout flooring looks great while also being tough and long lasting. Over time, however, tiled surfaces will become worn and lose their like-new appearance. Grouting collects dirt, losing the colour and sparkle it initially had.
Looking for help cleaning and rejuvenating your tile and grout floors? Our specialist restoration team in Hertford have both the knowledge and the experience required to deliver first class results. We get rid of marks and stains from your floors and buff out any scratches before applying a protective sealant, which repels dirt and makes it easier to maintain after we’ve finished our work.
How to tell if your tile & grout needs cleaning or restoration
To maximise the lifespan of their tile and grout floor, we suggest customers to regularly brush and dust their floors so that sharp pieces of debris aren’t ground into the floor by foot traffic.
Exactly how often you should plan to have your tile and grout floor professionally serviced depends on a number of different factors, such as the amount of footfall it experiences. Business premises usually require professional cleaning more regularly than homes, but if you have pets and children regular upkeep is a must as bacteria can quickly build up on an unclean floor.
The following are some common issues to look out for when arranging a professional restoration of your tiles and grout. Our Hertford team can help resolve a wide variety of problems, including:
- Loose tiles or worn grouting
- Faded, lifeless appearance
- Unclean, uneven edges
- Dust and dirt which is difficult to remove
- Sweeping does not clean the floor
- Permanent marks on the surface of the tiles
- Tiles look different to when they were new

Scratches, scuff marks and damage on the floor can be removed if they are surface-level and in the dressing. Deeper scratches on the surface may require a more intensive process to use diamond pads to repair the scratch.
We are happy to give a ballpark figure from pictures and room sizes, as this can help customer budgeting on renovation projects if they are unsure whether to restore or replace, but ultimately we would need to carry out a full survey and demo before any work can take place.

Normally the floor needs around 4 hours to dry. If we are only sealing the grout, the floor is fine for socks and slippers after 1 hour, but depending on the porosity of the tiles, room temperature and other factors, the floor can take longer to dry.
Every job is different, due to furniture, size of area and treatments required, but during the free survey and demo we will give you an estimate of how long it will take. By way of example, we recently completed a deep clean and grout seal of 40sqm in 1 day.

Yes, the floor is fine to use once we leave on the first day. We try to leave protection on the floor in the main traffic way or around the kitchen island, in front of the sink or oven. We normally suggest just not to cook anything like spag bol or curry, however, because the sauce might end up splattering on the floor
