Our High Quality Tile Specific Equipment:
The majority of tile cleaners use carpet cleaning machines to clean tile. We at Tonys Best Way use a high powered state of the art machine that was designed to clean tile and grout. Our professional machinery is also designed so that our technician is able to reach underneath and/or around obstructions such as countertops to ensure the cleaning of the entire surface. Our high-pressure cleaning machine performs this deep cleaning method without secondary spray. The built-in suction feature retrieves all residues removed from the surface and places it in a holding tank preventing any further soiling of baseboard and walls.
Inspection:
To begin the tile & grout cleaning service our technician will perform a full inspection of the area to develop a custom strategy that will lead to the best results for your specific type of tile and grout. All tile floors react differently, yet most cleaners treat them the same. We are confident in our ability to get your floor cleaner than anyone else because we do not use shortcuts or one size fits all methods.
Our 7 Step Cleaning Process:
1) We will begin by taking the proper precautions to protect
permanent fixtures and to safely move furniture out of the
immediate area as necessary.
2) The surface will then be agitated with a specialized brush and
strong degreasing cleanser in order to break up deep ground in
soils.
3) We then apply our specialized tile machine which will remove
years of accumulated soil from your tile and grout lines.
4) For deeply stained grout and tile, we have an optional
etching service we can perform at this point. This technique
literally shaves off the top layer of stained grout, revealing
fresh clean grout underneath. After etching we again make use our
excellent machine to remove all traces of residue. Please be aware
that etching is only available for certain types of tiling and
grout.
5) Tile and grout lines are given a final alkaline rinse to protect
their integrity. This is an important step that most cleaners do
not perform. Unfortunately, skipping this final rinse can
permanently damage your floor.
6) Once the tile surface is clean it dries very fast. This is the
best time to seal the surface in order to preserve the new, clean
condition of the tile and grout. Our fast drying, top of the line
sealants will act as a moisture barrier for the tile and grout and
prevent the absorption of oil and dirt. This will make maintaining
your tile and grout much easier. The sealer absorbs into floors
surface and will not change its appearance in any way. This is
important because if the wrong sealer is used it can cause the tile
to look dull and to remove improper sealers may necessitate a full
scale stripping treatment.
7) After we inspect our work one last time and are satisfied that
the entire surface is thoroughly cleaned, we will clean up and
place your furnishings back into their proper places.
After we complete the entire process, well teach you proper
maintenance procedures and recommend cleaners for your specific
tiling and grout. You will then be able to enjoy your beautifully
clean and sanitary floor for an extended time period.
