The Problem:

Have your grout lines turned black or gray? Mopping only moves dirt into the pores of the grout. Without high-pressure cleaning, bacteria, limescale and grease accumulate, making your floors look dull and unsanitary.

Restore the original look of your floors with professional steam cleaning under controlled high pressure, combined with a powerful extraction system. The alliance of 30 years of experience, advanced cleaning technologies and premium eco-friendly products restores shine to your ceramic tile and grout — without splashing, with almost immediate drying.

Ceramic tile and flooring cleaning

On tile floors and ceramic flooring, grease, limescale, mop residue and soiled grout lines embed in the pores. Regular household cleaning moves the dirt without truly extracting it.

We use pre-treatment, specialized grout brushing, then steam cleaning under controlled high pressure with simultaneous extraction — for a cleaner ceramic floor, deep-cleaned joints and fast drying, without splashing furniture or baseboards.

Shower wall and bathroom tile cleaning

In bathrooms, humidity, soap and limescale darken wall tiling and shower grout. Shower wall cleaning treats these vertical surfaces differently from a floor: adapted tools, controlled water, protected finishes.

We remove soap scum and visible deposits on ceramic tile, clean soiled shower joints and restore a fresh look to the stall and tiled walls — without soaking silicone, niches or shelves.

Kitchen backsplash cleaning

Kitchen backsplash cleaning targets cooking splashes and greasy residue that build up behind the countertop and cooktop — a different challenge than bathroom humidity.

Precise hand tools clean ceramic backsplash tiles and grout without projecting water onto cabinets. Ideal alongside a kitchen floor cleaning, without redoing the full method on the walls.

Our professional process (steam, high pressure and extraction)

The alliance of 30 years of experience, advanced cleaning technologies and premium eco-friendly products guides every visit. We restore ceramic tile, flooring and grout — in homes, condos or apartments — with professional steam cleaning under controlled high pressure, combined with a powerful extraction system.

1

Inspection and pre-treatment

Identification of the tile type (ceramic, porcelain, natural stone) and application of an alkaline cleaning agent specifically designed to break down grease and soap residue.

2

Specialized grout brushing

We use specialized brushes to vigorously scrub each grout line. This mechanical action is essential to release embedded black dirt before extraction.

3

Controlled high-pressure steam and extraction (200°F)

Our machine projects pressurized hot water inside a closed rotating head. It cleans and vacuums simultaneously, guaranteeing zero splashing on your walls or cabinets.

4

Neutralization and drying

A final pH-balanced rinse removes any sticky residue. We then use high-power fans to ensure fast drying, ready for the final step.

5

Protection (grout sealant)

Optional grout protection available: we can apply a professional protective sealant that penetrates the grout pores to help resist dirt and make future cleaning easier.

Why do your joints turn black so quickly?

Grout is like a sponge: it is extremely porous. When you mop your floor, dirty water ends up accumulating in the "hollows" of the joints. Once the water evaporates, only the dirt remains at the bottom. Only professional steam cleaning under controlled high pressure, combined with extraction, can “empty” these pores. Applying a protective sealant after cleaning is the best investment to keep your joints white for years.

Frequently Asked Questions — Tile & Grout

How long should I wait before walking on the floor?

Thanks to our powerful suction, the floor is dry to the touch almost immediately. However, if we apply a protective sealant, we recommend waiting about 2 to 4 hours before walking on it with shoes, and 24 hours before mopping with water.

Will your machine splash water on my kitchen cabinets?

Not at all. We use a 'Turbo' tool which is a hermetically sealed bell. High-pressure water is projected inside this bell and instantly sucked up by the vacuum. Your walls, baseboards, and cabinets remain perfectly dry from start to finish.

Can you clean moldy shower grout?

Yes, we can remove surface mold and soap scum. However, if the mold has penetrated *behind* the grout or if the silicone is deeply blackened, cleaning will not be enough; a replacement of the silicone joint (caulking) might be necessary.

What does your steam cleaning involve?

We perform professional steam cleaning under controlled high pressure, combined with a powerful extraction system. Heat (200°F), controlled pressure (800-1200 PSI) and industrial suction work together to extract dirt from the bottom of the grout — far beyond a household steam cleaner.

Does the sealant change the color of my grout?

We generally use an invisible penetrating sealant that does not change the natural appearance of your grout. It protects from the inside. If you wish to change the color of your grout, there are colored sealants (ColorSeal), but it is a separate specialized service.

Do you also clean kitchen backsplashes?

Yes! We use smaller hand tools, specifically designed for vertical surfaces, to clean your backsplashes and shower walls with the same efficiency as your floors.

How often should ceramic tile and grout be cleaned?

We recommend a professional cleaning every 12 to 18 months depending on usage, pets and traffic level. Regular maintenance helps prevent grout darkening and extends the life of your joints.

Are your products safe for children and pets?

Yes. We use premium eco-friendly professional products suited to family environments. They clean deeply without compromising your ceramic finish.

Do you clean condos and apartments in Montreal?

Yes. We regularly clean tile and grout in condos and apartments across Montreal, Laval and the South Shore. Our closed turbo head limits splashing and works well in more compact spaces.

While we are there, many clients also book carpet cleaning or upholstered furniture cleaning for a complete home refresh.
