Tile and Grout Cleaning

A Guide to Sparkling Tile and Grout

Tile is an excellent choice for its design aesthetic, durability, functionality, and versatility, and it can be a terrific investment in your home without sacrificing style. However, dirty tile and crumbling grout can quickly detract from a home’s appearance. At Carr’s Rug Cleaning, we are here to help you protect your tile and other textiles. Today, we are sharing our guide to caring for your tile and grout. It can be relatively low maintenance with just a few simple steps.

Mats and Rugs

Strategically place mats and rugs in protect high-traffic areas to help to catch dirt and debris before it has a chance to damage or stain the grout.  Mats or rugs are suggested anywhere you may find tile as a floor surface, such as entryways, kitchens, and bathrooms. This will be your first line of defense against protecting your floors in the long run. If your rugs need cleaning, we can help with this, too!

Minimize Moisture

Moisture can create mildew and mold if left for too long. Ensure bathrooms are well ventilated and run a fan after baths and showers. In kitchens or entryways, wipe up any spills. The less time the tile spends wet means less wear on grout sealants and protective coatings.

Sometimes, even after trying every DIY method you can find, the issue is simply too much for you to handle yourself. If the grout begins looking dark and dingy, it may be time to call Carr’s Rug Cleaning. Our proven cleaning process uses cutting-edge technology and will leave you with pristine results.
