How It Works

How to Clean and Revive Tile Grout: Step by Step

With the right approach, you can transform dingy grout into a spotless, like-new finish. Follow these simple steps for professional results.

1

Start with a Thorough Sweep

Remove loose dirt and dust from tiles and grout lines using a vacuum or broom. This prevents debris from turning into muddy streaks during cleaning.

2

Apply Your Cleaning Solution

Mix a paste of baking soda and water or use a pH-neutral cleaner. Spread it along the grout and let it sit for at least 10 minutes to break down grime.

3

Scrub, Rinse, and Seal

Use a stiff brush or old toothbrush to scrub the grout lines. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. For long-lasting results, consider applying a grout sealer.

Tile Grout Cleaning: Common Questions

Grout cleaning can raise a few questions, especially if you want to protect your investment. Find expert answers below.
