If you are thinking about hiring a professional cleaning service to take care of deep cleaning your home or business, you are probably wondering if they clean grout.

Most professional cleaning services offer some type of cleaning for your tiled surfaces.  Whether that be mopping your tiled floors or offering to scrub the grout lines inside your shower, there are a few reasons The Grout Medic of San Diego Metro recommends leaving the grout to the grout and tile professionals.

Proper San Diego grout cleaning takes time and effort.

You may or may not be abreast of the typical hourly rate for a professional cleaning service, but it can be $80-$130 for two cleaners.  Let’s say you hire a service to deep clean your home for a set number of hours.  If you have two cleaners in your home for four hours, that is $320 to $520 for your deep cleaning, gratuity not included.  While they are in your home to deep clean all your rooms, how much time are you willing to allow for a deep grout cleaning service?  If you want to include that on top of their standard offering for a deep cleaning, it will take additional time.  One hour, two hours, or much more, depending on how many tiled surfaces you wish to have the grout cleaned in.  In order to achieve the thorough cleaning you need, it could take six hours or more with two cleaners.  If you are hiring a private cleaner, it could take much longer.  While the hourly rate for one person will be less, you will have to dedicate more time –  possibly more than one day.  Then, there is the method by which they will deep clean your grout…

The Grout Medic recommends only deep steam San Diego grout cleaning.

Professional house cleaning services might offer to scrub and scour your grout lines with bleach or ammonia cleaning solutions, which is not how we recommend cleaning grout.  Our techs provide deep grout cleaning with our green grout cleaning steam machine, which blasts out dirt and contaminants.  Our grout cleaning machines use tap water, which is heated to about 310°F.  In addition, it applies low-pressure steam, which is not damaging to your grout or tile.  Do not be tempted to use a high-pressure cleaner on your tiled surfaces.  At no point in our process, will we apply a harsh cleaning solution that contains bleach or ammonia.  Our techs will work quickly to achieve wonderfully-clean grout and be finished in only one visit.  Leave the rest of your home to a cleaning service but ensure the health and beauty of your tile and grout by calling on The Grout Medic for your all San Diego grout cleaning needs.
