Grout Cleaning and Maintenance Tips
Keeping grout lines clean after a professional service is simple with a few regular habits. These tips will help you prevent stains, discolouration, and moisture build-up, keeping your tiled areas looking fresh and hygienic for longer:
-
🧴 Use Mild, pH-Neutral Cleaners
Harsh bleach or acidic cleaners can weaken grout and fade its colour. Always use gentle, pH-neutral products designed for tile and grout to keep the joints strong and clean without damage.
-
🚿 Dry Surfaces After Use
In bathrooms or wet rooms, moisture can lead to mould growth. Wipe down tiled surfaces and grout lines with a dry cloth after showers or mopping to keep the area dry and free from mildew.
-
🔁 Reseal Grout Periodically
Even sealed grout can lose protection over time. Reapplying a sealer every 12 to 18 months helps prevent new stains and makes routine cleaning easier while extending the life of the grout.
