Tile & Grout Cleaning in Bronkhorstspruit

An alkaline pre-treatment to break down grease and soap scum, machine agitation with rotary brushes, then high-pressure hot water extraction that vacuums the dirty water away. It reaches into grout pores that mopping never touches.

A typical kitchen or bathroom floor takes 1-2 hours; a whole-house tiled floor half a day. Floors are walkable almost immediately after extraction, but wait 24 hours before wet-mopping, and longer if sealer was applied.

Mopping pushes dirty water into porous grout lines, which sit lower than the tile face and act as gutters. After a professional clean, sealing the grout and switching to a flat microfibre mop with frequent rinse water dramatically slows re-soiling.

Yes for cement-based grout — a penetrating sealer slows re-staining and makes mopping more effective. Sealing is pointless on epoxy grout (already non-porous). Expect sealer to add meaningfully to the bill and need reapplying every 1-3 years in wet areas.

Marble, travertine and limestone need pH-neutral chemistry — acid-based tile cleaners etch them permanently. Tell the company your surface type up front; stone-safe cleaning and polishing is a different (pricier) service from ceramic/porcelain work.

Machine clean and extraction typically runs R30-70 per m² with minimum callouts around R500-800. Grout sealing adds roughly R20-40 per m². Coastal metros price toward the top of the range.
