  "Why Mopping Your Tile and Grout Is Not Enough"

Maintaining a high level of cleanliness, appearance and sanitation in restrooms can be very difficult even for cleaning professionals. This is true in commercial settings or in your home.

This is especially true where restrooms are heavily used, and often abused. An inexperienced person would think that all the tile and grout needs is a good mopping. That might be true. But, over time mopping is not enough.

Tile, and the grout used to anchor it to these surfaces, is "porous". Time, moisture, contaminants, dirt and mop water will eventually discolor the tile and grout, causing staining and odors, contributing to the growth of bacteria, mold and mildew. When mopping small amounts of water even dirty water are left behind. This also gets trapped in your grout. When you are mopping a dirty floor the mop is pulling and lifting most of the dirt. Even a new mop with fresh water will leave some dirt behind.

Some believe that simply sealing tile and grout will prevent these problems from occurring, but while most tile and grout is sealed when installed in a commercial setting and can be resealed as necessary, the sealers eventually break down.

Very often, this happens because of the strong detergents and other chemicals used to clean the tile and grout areas especially floors. When this occurs, the cleaning problems begin and the surface areas end up looking "un-mopped and dirty". The cleaning company will start getting complaints that they are not mopping. When the exact opposite is the truth. Mopping does not and will not remove all of the dirt.

In time in a factory, restaurant or in large facilities with restroom with 10 to 20 fixtures that are used 12 or 24 hours per day. You will need a deep clean with a powerful cleaner. This also applies to homeowners.

Restrooms often take more time to clean than any other area of a facility. Additionally, they get the most complaints.
