From commercial to residential tile and grout cleaning, Lone Star Carpet Care has been the trusted choice of San Antonio residents for all their tile and grout cleaning needs for over 20 years.
Tile and grout is notoriously difficult to clean. Even with regular mopping, tile and grout can still look "dirty." Over time, dirt settles deep into the tile surface, into pores, and deep into grout lines. Unfortunately, mopping, even when performed combination of over-the-counter tile cleaning products fails to restores a "clean" appearance to your tile. This is because consumer products aren't made to penetrate the ground-in dirt, trapped mildew, and germs that lie trapped deep within the tile's surface, nor are mops able access hard-to-reach crevices. This is where the professionals at Lone Star Carpet Care come in. Equipped with our high-pressure truck-mounted cleaning systems, Lone Star Carpet Care not only cleans but sanitizes your tile and grout, restoring it to its original brilliance and color. For maximum results, Lone Star Carpet Care recommends our acid wash treatment which is designed to restore even the dirtiest tile and grout to a like new appearance.
After your tile has been cleaned and sanitized, Lone Star Carpet Care apply our special tile sealant to block out and repel dirt, stains, mold, and mildew. Unsealed grout, coupled with a moist environment (especially in bathrooms) provide the ideal breeding ground for mold and mildew. Sealed grout provides a barrier, repelling mold, mildew, and stains for up to two years. Not only will your home be healthier, but clean up will be easier.
It's clear why tiles are such a popular choice for bathrooms and kitchens. These are the two rooms in a household that are most often under attack by spills and various substances that could ruin many other types of flooring. With tiles, a quick mopping job is usually all that is needed – or so you'd think.
While it's true that using a wet mop with some soap or a cleaning agent will remove much of the dirt found on tiles, it won't always be enough to take care of the material connecting the tiles – grout. Being porous, grout is extremely prone to discoloration and attracting all sorts of filth. Even a timely intervention sometimes won't do you any good once grout becomes dirty. This material is supposed to be white, yet many of us have only known it in shades of black or gray for most of our lives.
Dirty and discolored grout can easily make people forget about the beauty of your tiles. We all have a tendency to focus on the unpleasant sight that sticks out above everything else. Oftentimes, we'll get a call from a customer asking right off the bat: "Can you do something about my dirty grout?" We always answer with a yes.
With unclean grout, it's not just a matter of looking bad – it can also attract bacteria and mildew if left unchecked. That's why you shouldn't leave it dirty for too long, and should definitely give us a call if you see a pink hue to it.
Once we're there, we'll see how much of the grout can be salvaged. The material itself often doesn't need to be replaced, although sometimes this is necessary (at least partially) in the case of severe discoloration, staining or dirt accumulation. Most of the time, however, the combination of a professional-grade electrical brush (think an electric toothbrush, only a lot bigger and badder) and a bleaching chemical will do the trick. After we're done cleaning your grout, we'll seal any cracks it might have to prevent it from attracting dirt in the future.
We won't forget your tiles, either. Many home owners no longer remember the true color of their tiles – they're covered in a subtle layer of dirt that takes away the shine and reduces the overall appearance. Our clients rarely, if ever, have access to tools powerful enough to deal with this layer. It doesn't just look bad, it's also bad for your health. We'll also take care of any stains that became hardened and would otherwise be impossible to remove without harming the tile – as you might have realized by now, removing stains or grime from a tile after too much time has passed is a job meant for the professionals.We'll also help restore the natural color of your tiles, regardless of whether the discoloration was caused by damage, smoke, a chemical or anything else. Once we're done, you can expect your tile-covered surfaces to shine and sparkle. Even better, they'll be free of any bacteria that might have set up camp long ago without you being aware of it. Don't let dirty tile and grout comprise your health or distract from the beauty of your home.
