Tile Cleaning

The Red Carpet Experience®

For 15 years, Troff Services has been delivering The Red Carpet Experience®. The best tile cleaning service near you.

Have you ever tried tile cleaning by hand? It’s hard work and it quickly becomes messy and uncomfortable. It is impossible to get the same result that comes with The Red Carpet Experience® for tile cleaning with at-home cleaners and regular mopping.

Impossible, why? Grout lines are porous and dirt eventually finds its way deep and hidden within. Regular mopping, even with added scrubbing, simply can’t reach the hidden dirt.

Our professional tile cleaning service uses special equipment and our hot water extraction cleaning method to clean out the dirt hidden in your grout and clean the tile itself. With our specifically designed tile cleaning equipment, your grout will receive an increased water pressure rinsing. Combine this with our professional tile cleaning solutions and your floors will return to an almost like new appearance. The Red Carpet Experience® for tile cleaning removes over 95% of all dirt, body oils, and allergens.

How We Clean

Pre-Inspection

Notating any existing damage or color seal applied to the grout. Color seal is similar to a paint put onto the grout to hide dirt and discoloration.

Pre-Treatment

The tile and grout is treated with an alkaline solution. Grout is porous and so the solution works its way into the grout to break up dirt, oils and other contaminants.

Brush Agitation

Tile cleaning brushes are used in some situations where the cleaning solution needs assistance breaking up the oils, dirt and other contaminants.

Rinse & Extraction

Next a device called a turbo cleaner is used to clean. The turbo is a wand with a round dome like head. It has vacuum ports on the outside ring and spinning jets on the inside. This device can high pressure wash your tile and grout without wetting other services besides the tile.

High Speed Drying

The cleaned areas are wiped dry and high speed dryers are placed on the areas to ensure the grout is dry enough for a sealer to be applied.

Grout Sealing

A grout sealing solution is applied to protect against stains and other contaminants making personal cleaning easier and allowing professional cleaning to preserve the look of the tile and grout for many years.

Post Cleaning Inspection

Your technician will go over the results of the tile cleaning. Areas that have permanent stains or other issues will be gone over.

FAQ

How to clean tile myself?

Starting with an already dirty tile floor can be tough to clean. Grout is a porous substance and tends to soak up and spills and oils. These contaminants sink down into the grout and are impossible to remove without pressure (kind of like a driveway). After your tile cleaning with Troff Services, make sure to add on grout sealing. This will prevent spills and oils from absorbing into the grout. Next use a neutral cleaner (one without soaps or shine qualities) to mop the floor with a microfiber mop. A good cleaner to use is vinegar and water (1-10 ratio). This will upkeep the floor until it is time to professionally clean the tile again. Tile cleaning should be done professionally on average once a year.

My grout is crumbling and missing in some places?

Generally this is an issue of either age or poor craftmanship. Grout needs a specific combination of grout and water. Too much or too little and the grout will begin to degrade much sooner than it should. The solution is to have the tile regrouted in the damaged areas or the entire tiled surface. Just note that regrouting only specific areas may come with color differences as it is almost impossible to match grout color.

How do I know if my tile is dirty when it all looks the same?

Checking in low traffic areas will give you the best view of your tile. Check behind that cabinet that never moves or along walls that don't recieve too much traffic. Usually you will see a difference in the color of the grout and in some situations you may even see a color difference in the tile itself.
