Common Quarry Tile Problems

Quarry tile is common in kitchens, so grease is usually the main problem:

  • Grease buildup. Floors turn dark and sticky near fryers and prep areas.
  • Slippery floors. Grease and water together are a slip hazard.
  • Black grout lines. Grease and food soil collect in the joints.
  • Dull, uneven color. Grime settles into the unglazed surface.
  • Old wax or coatings. Worn finishes trap dirt.

Our Quarry Tile Cleaning Process

  1. Inspection. We identify the quarry tile and its finish and check the grout and any existing sealer.
  2. Preparation. We protect walls, baseboards, and nearby surfaces. Our technicians can move small, light furniture. We don’t move heavy or fragile items, so please clear those before we arrive.
  3. Degreasing. We apply degreasers suited to unglazed quarry tile and let them break down grease.
  4. Scrubbing. We work the tile surface and grout lines.
  5. Rinse and recovery. We rinse thoroughly and remove the greasy residue.
  6. Optional sealing. Sealing helps quarry tile and grout resist grease. If we seal, allow 24 to 48 hours for the sealer to cure before normal use and mopping.
