What is different about tile & grout cleaning in Perth
Perth homes are tiled more than most. Porcelain and ceramic floors through living areas are standard in the suburbs built since the 1980s, because they cope with heat, sand and the beach lifestyle, and that gives the city a busy tile and grout cleaning trade. The fine sand that blows in from the coast and the dunes works into grout lines and dulls tiles faster than in cities with less sand, and light-coloured grout in particular goes grey within a few years.
The work splits into machine cleaning of large tiled floors, priced per square metre, and wet-area work in bathrooms and laundries where mould, soap scum and limescale from Perth’s hard scheme water are the problem. Sealing after cleaning is popular here because it slows the sand from getting back in.
Sand
Fine coastal sand works into grout and abrades tiles; regular cleaning and sealing slow it down.
Hard water
Perth’s scheme water leaves limescale on shower tiles and glass that needs specific treatment.
Large tiled areas
Whole-house tiled floors are common, so per-square-metre pricing with a minimum charge dominates.
Sealing
Penetrating sealers after cleaning are usually worth the extra in Perth conditions.
