Porcelain Tile Cleaning

Tile Cleaning Solutions cleans porcelain tile and grout in homes and businesses, including polished, matte, textured, and wood-look porcelain. Porcelain is dense and tough, but grout and textured surfaces still trap dirt. For a free quote, call 888-294-0404 or fill out the quote form on this page.

Common Porcelain Tile Problems

Porcelain resists water and stains well, so most problems come from what sits on top of it:

  • Haze and residue. Leftover cleaner or installation grout haze makes porcelain look streaky.
  • Dirt in textured tile. Matte and textured porcelain traps grime in its surface.
  • Dark grout. Grout is still porous even when the tile isn’t.
  • Dull traffic paths. Polished porcelain shows wear where people walk.
  • Slippery wet floors. Polished porcelain gets slick when wet.

Our Porcelain Tile Cleaning Process

  1. Inspection. We identify the porcelain 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. Pre-treatment. We apply cleaners suited to porcelain and the type of residue.
  4. Scrubbing. We work textured surfaces and grout lines where dirt hides.
  5. Rinse and recovery. We rinse thoroughly so no residue is left to cause streaks.
  6. Optional sealing. We can seal the grout or apply a grout color sealer. If we seal, allow 24 to 48 hours for the sealer to cure before normal use and mopping.

We provide porcelain tile cleaning for homes and businesses in four service regions: Bay Area, Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego. Follow the link for your region to see our work there, or call us if you’re not sure we cover your neighborhood.

Aftercare for Porcelain Tile

  • Allow 24 to 48 hours after sealing before normal use and mopping.
  • Use a pH-neutral cleaner and rinse well to avoid streaks.
  • Use a soft brush on textured tile. It reaches into the texture better than a flat mop.
  • Put mats at entries to cut down on grit.

How long results last depends on foot traffic, sealing, and daily care. Plan on resealing about every 2 years.
