How Often Should You Clean Your Grout?
Grout is a porous material – it collects dirt and grime often discoloring the surface. Regular mopping doesn’t reach the hidden dirt deep within the pores of grout lines. We recommend you professionally clean your tiles and seal them every couple of years. It not only protects your grout lines but prolongs the life of your stone. We also recommend you seal your stone at a regular frequency to significantly slow down the absorption of liquid into the stone. If you don’t seal your grout, it will absorb water, bacteria, and stains. Adding a grout sealer protects your grout so it’s waterproof and repels moisture and germs. Sealing the grout helps prolong the look, texture, and consistency of your group and more importantly, prevents mildew and mold.
How Do You Clean an Area Rug?
No two area rugs are the same in our world whether by construction or use. We treat each rug uniquely based on its needs. The first step is to identify the area rug. Its fiber, construction and condition. Then we dust it to remove all the dry soils, next pre-wash (rinse) before washing it thoroughly where we apply a cleaning solution and/or treat the area rug based on its cleaning needs. This is done to break down all the grease and soils embedded in the area rug. We then rinse the cleaning agents and leftover soils so we can place the area rug into a centrifuge to extract as much moisture and soiling that cannot be removed by hand. It’s then groomed, comb the pile in the proper direction, before drying onsite. Upon completion, we conduct a final inspection to ensure it’s clean and dried properly where we’ll post-vacuum once it’s passed inspection. If we feel a second cleaning will garnish better results, we repeat the same process again at no additional cost to you.
