Tile and grout cleaning process

Step 1: We carry out a pre-inspection of the tiles in order to determine what type of tiles they are and what is the best cleaning solution for them.

Step 2: In preparation for the tile cleaning we micro-fibre mop the floor.

Step 3: The cleaning solution is applied to the tiles. This solutions is applied hot and once applied, immediately begins breaking down the soiling and grime.

Step 4: All the tiles and grout lines are scrubbed and agitated.

Step 5: With our powerful truck mounted machine, we perform the high pressure steam extraction.

Step 6: We perform a final dry with high velocity air movers and fibre mops

WE PROFESSIONALLY CLEAN, RESTORE AND SEAL ALL TYPES OF TILES IN ADELAIDE INCLUDING.

CERAMIC TILE CLEANING

Ceramic tiles are a popular choice of tile due to their wide array of colours, designs and textures and their reasonably low cost. Ceramic tiles are hard wearing and low in porousity and generally cannot be sealed. We often seal the grout lines after cleaning this will keep the surface cleaner and make future cleaning much easier.

SLATE TILE CLEANING

Slate tiles are a natural stone tile and can vary in colour, texture , density and in size. Slate tiles are quite porous and need to be sealed. Old sealer coats often need to be stripped and removed during the cleaning process, then re -applied after cleaning – commonly known as stripping & sealing.

PORCELAIN TILE CLEANING

Porcelain tiles can be polished, glazed or natural and depending on the type will vary in maitenance and cleaning requirements. Polished and natural porcelain tiles will require sealing with a quality penetrating sealer whilst glazed porcelain tiles do not require sealing.

TERRACOTTA TILE CLEANING

Terracotta tiles are porous and also sensitive to acids so generally sealing is required . Terracotta tiles can vary in colour from light grey through to a yellowish colour and of into the shades of red. Terracotta tiles are quite soft and should not be cleaned with high water pressure.

TERRAZZO TILE CLEANING

Terrazzo tiles are made from a composite of materials , usually a combination of marble , quartz and granite and are available in the large range of shapes sizes and colours. Terrazzo tiles are very porous and can easily be stained and damaged by acids therefore require sealing.

TRAVERTINE TILE CLEANING

Travertine tiles are a natural stone tile and are best sealed. Travertine tiles come in a range of surface finishes , the colour ranges from white to cream and tan and they are best recognised by the holes in the tile surface that are often filled. Travertine tiles are quite soft by nature and should not be cleaned with high water pressure.

QUARRY TILE CLEANING

Quarry tiles are known for being hard wearing , durable and reasonably inexpensive Whilst quarry tiles are often red in colour they can vary from brown , grey , to a tan colour. Quarry tiles are often used in areas that receive high traffic due to their hard wearing characteristics. Quarry tile is quite vulnerable to staining and requires sealing.

MARBLE TILE CLEANING

Marble tiles are available in a wide variety of colours and sizes and are most easily identified by the veins running through them. Marble is a natural stone and it is very sensitive to acids and prone to scratching it is also quite porous and requires sealing.

GRANITE TILE CLEANING

Granite tiles are versatile , tough and very hard wearing and are commonly found in a variety of colours from white to black and many shades in between. Whilst granite tiles are quite dense they are also porous and they do require sealing to protect them and keep them looking their best for a long period of time.

LIMESTONE TILE CLEANING

Limestone tiles are very porous , extremely senstive to acids and prone to scratching and staining. Most commonly very light in colour limestone tiles are used for both floor and wall tiles. Limestone tiles need to be maintained with a high quality penetrating sealer rather than a top coat sealer.

HOW DOES OUR TILE CLEANING SYSTEM WORK ?

We use the very latest in tile cleaning technology to properly perform the job at hand and to acheive the very best tile cleaning results for our customers. The system we use is widely known as “clean and capture” this is where we utilise our powerful truckmounted machinery to generate high water pressure and high water temperatures to pressure clean the tile surface and at the same time the vacuum motors of our machinery recover the dirty water into a holding tank in the rear of our van. This system allows us the clean your tiles without any splashing of dirt or water and your tiles are left virtually dry once we have finished the tile cleaning process.

TILE SEALING

All porous tiles need to be maintained with a high quality sealing agent, professional sealing of your tiles will help protect the tiled surface from staining , general wear and tear and it will add years of life to your floor . For acid sensitive stone tiles sealing is an absolute must , this will create a protective barrier between the surface and the stone tile giving you time to wipe up any acidic spills such as fruit juice, vinegar, wine, etc. before it damages the tile. Depending on the type of tile you have we can apply either a penetrating sealer or a top coat sealer to your tiles , at Master Class we can best advise you on the most appropriate sealer for your particular tiles.

GROUT SEALING

In some cases certain types of tiles cannot be sealed yet you may still want the benefits of the ease of cleaning that comes with the sealing of tiles , ceramic tiles are a good example of this. In such cases we recommend sealing the grout lines with a high quality penetrating sealer, this will keep the grout clean much longer and it will also make cleaning of the entire tiled flooring much easier.

TILE STRIPPING

If your tiles have an existing sealer coat on them then generally this will need to be removed during the cleaning process in order to properly clean then re-seal your tiles , this process is widely known as stripping & sealing. We perform this stripping process using specialised stripping solutions in conjunction with rotary machine scrubbing this process breaks down and seperates the old sealer from the tiled surface. Once this process is completed we then steam clean the surface at high water pressure removing the old sealer and any dirt and grime with it. We then neutralise the tiles with our specialised solution to remove any chemical residue , the floor is now ready for sealing.

BATHROOM TILE CLEANING:

Bathroom tile cleaning can present different challanges for the professional tile cleaner these being soap scum on floor and wall tiles , calcium deposit build-up and water staining on tiles. At Master Class Cleaning Services we have specialised tooling for the cleaning of wall tiles and of tiles in small tight areas. We also use a specialised chlorine based cleaning solution for the cleaning of shower and bathroom wall tiles this not only cuts through soap scum and fatty build-up on wall tiles it also has the added benefit of completely sanitising and dis-infecting the tiles. Our bathroom tile cleaning will not only leave your bathroom tiles beautifully clean it will completely sanitise them as well.
