Porosity is a natural characteristic of grout. Each mopping session forces contaminated water deep into the grout lines, where soil remains after the moisture dries. That's why grout gets darker no matter how often you clean it, and why over-the-counter cleaning solutions and manual scrubbing fall short of deep cleaning.
We arrive with a truck-mounted power-wash system, 1,500 PSI pressure and water heated to 210,230°F, plus a 14-inch spinner tool that contains the spray and vacuums the dirty water straight into a containment tank. Your walls and baseboards stay completely protected from overspray.
Enough heat and pressure to lift what DIY can't reach — without damaging tile or grout.
The gap between professional-grade tile cleaning and basic surface wiping is heat, pressure, and the ability to extract dirty water before it goes back into the grout. Our system delivers all of these capabilities, inside a sealed vacuum apparatus that leaves your baseboards and walls untouched.
Here's exactly what happens when we show up for a tile & grout job — residential or commercial.
We identify the tile type (ceramic, porcelain, or natural stone), check for loose or cracked tiles and discuss any spots that concern you. Price set in advance so you know exactly what to expect.
Loose soil, pet hair, and debris are removed before any moisture touches the floor. Dry dirt is easier to remove and keeps it out of the grout.
An alkaline cleaning solution tailored to your tile type is applied initially. It dwells on the cooking oil, tracked-in soil, and mop-water deposits, which is where the cleaning actually happens.
The 14-inch spinner runs across the floor at high pressure and 210,230°F. A vacuum hood confines the spray and pulls dirty water straight into a containment tank on the truck. No spray on your walls.
Hand-worked attention of corners, edges, baseboards, and stubborn stains is included in our service. We'll give you straight talk if a stain is permanently dyed into the grout and won't come all the way out.
We use a neutral pH rinse to eliminate solution residue, keeping your floor cleaner once we're done. You can walk on it in about an hour; if you add a sealer, heavy furniture returns once it cures.
The grout on the right looks like it did when it was installed. On the left, years of mopping and traffic had compounded. No bleach, no magic — just the process above.
We'd sooner be honest than take on a floor we can't do justice to. Here's where our process works, and where we'll point you somewhere else.

The best time for sealing is right after a professional cleaning, when grout pores are open and free of soil. A penetrating sealer creates a barrier that allows liquids, oils, and soils to rest on the surface where they can be easily wiped away.
For synthetic tiles — ceramic and porcelain. The tile face itself is non-porous, so only the grout lines need protection.
For natural stone — travertine, slate, limestone, marble. The stone itself is porous, so the whole floor gets sealed: tile face and grout.
Commercial flooring faces heavier traffic loads, greater grease accumulation, higher moisture, and far less forgiving daylight than residential. We scale our approach: multiple-disc passes, careful containment to protect high-gloss finishes, and off-hours work timed to complete before business hours.

Jason with Scott’s Carpet Care was once again awesome—timely, thorough and funny as heck. We will definitely use Scott’s again.
No. saltillo and other clay-based tiles call for distinct techniques and treatment products that our standard system doesn't accommodate. We'd rather connect you with a professional who specializes in them than try to adapt our standard method.
Most will. A few won't. Grout is porous and some liquids like red wine, Kool-Aid, and hair dye can permanently dye the grout itself. We generally bring tile and grout back to approximately 80-90% of their original appearance in a single service, and we'll explain what results you can anticipate before beginning work.
That's it. That's the guarantee. No forms to fill out, no hoops to jump through. If anything about our work doesn't meet your expectations, call us and we'll re-clean it — on the house.
