One of the most popular flooring options in the modern home is ceramic tile and grout, and for good reason. But unfortunately, many people neglect to properly clean their tile floors. Let’s talk about where many people go wrong, and how The Steam Team can help.

The Brush Method

The most common method for tile and grout cleaning is by vigorously scrubbing each tile and in between every grout line with a small brush. This method is extremely tedious and not as effective as you might think it is. Many people also use harsh chemicals that may cause irritation to themselves or children and pets. With help from The Steam Team, you won’t need these methods anymore. Our professional technicians provide a tile and grout cleaning service that uses the latest technology to completely restore your floor and eliminate any harmful bacteria without the use of harsh chemicals.

The Steam Team Technicians

When our technicians arrive, they’ll begin the cleaning process by inspecting the troubled or dirtiest areas of the tile and figure out how to best treat them, then they’ll separate the tile from other materials and remove any furniture from the tile. Then the floor will be thoroughly swept and vacuumed to remove all dry soil so that an advanced tile cleaner solution can be sprayed across the floor. Hand brushes, mechanical rotating brushes, and a self-contained pressure cleaning system will be used to clean the floor with the solution.

A final coat of finish will be applied to the tile at the end of the cleaning process to help protect the floor from further damage or dirt. Then our technicians will do a final walkthrough to make sure that you’re satisfied with our service. For more information on tile and grout cleaning from our team, visit The Steam Team website.

Natural Stone Floor Repair From The Steam Team in Austin Texas

For the most part, hardsurface floors are an easy flooring option to maintain. But over time, scratches, water and other forms of damage will erode your once appealing hardsurface floors. When this happens, you’ll want to have a solid plan in place of how to renew and refinish your hardwood. We want The Steam Team in Austin, Texas to be part of your plan!

When To Refinish Your Natural Stone Floor

There are some very easy signs to look out for that will tell you that your floor is in need of refinishing. An old, damaged floor will look far different than a newly finished floor. The most obvious sign will be a lack of the shine on the surface that usually characterizes a healthy, finished natural stone floor. If your floor has little to no shine, it might need a refinishing. If you dust and/or mop the floor and it still appears dull, that definitely means that the finish has been worn off. Also be sure to look out for deep scratches or dullness in the floor, as these could go through the finish and allow the floor to be more easily damaged. If you find any scratches that go deeper than the finish, it’s time to have your floor refinished and honed.

Refinishing Process

When our Austin, Texas technicians arrive for the natural stone floor refinishing process, they’ll start with a visual inspection to find the most troubling areas in the floor and work out the best solution. Then they’ll move on the damage repair; fixing all the trouble areas and mark any major problems and scratches. Then the cleaning process will begin; eliminating any traces of dirt or grime on the floor that may get in the way of the refinishing process. Finally, the floor will be refinished by applying two coats of finish, making your natural stone floor look better than ever and adding years to its lifespan.
