Tile & Grout Cleaning in Maitland and the Hunter Valley
Grout that's been scrubbed for years and never quite looked right - professional cleaning gets results that scrubbing simply can't.
The floor you've stopped noticing
Tiled floors are easy to maintain on the surface — a mop keeps them looking presentable day-to-day. But the grout lines are a different story. Grout is porous. It absorbs cleaning products, dirt, grease, and moisture over time, and it discolours in a way that mopping can't reverse.
The result is a floor that looks clean until you look closely, and then you realise the grout has gone from white or cream to grey, brown, or near black.
Scrubbing by hand improves things temporarily but rarely gets back to the original colour — and it's exhausting work for a result that doesn't last.
What professional tile cleaning actually achieves
Professional tile and grout cleaning uses high-pressure hot water extraction to remove what has built up deep in the grout over time. The difference between before and after is usually significant — and it shows up in photos that genuinely surprise people.

Why locals book Phoenix for tile cleaning
Tile and grout cleaning requires the right equipment and the right technique. Consumer-grade cleaners and scrubbing tools aren't in the same league as professional hot water extraction.
We bring the same standard of care to tile jobs that we bring to carpet and upholstery work - professional equipment, careful handling in your home, and a result that's worth the call. We'll also let you know about any sealing options after the clean if it's something worth considering for your grout type.
The results - before and after
Tile and grout cleaning — common questions
Do you clean both floor tiles and wall tiles?
Our primary focus is floor tiles and grout, but get in touch if you have wall tiles or a specific area you'd like assessed.
Will professional cleaning get grout back to the original colour?
In most cases, yes — or very close to it. Grout that has been heavily stained for a long time may not return completely to white, but the improvement is typically significant. We'll give you an honest assessment before starting.
Can the grout be sealed after cleaning?
Yes — sealing grout after a professional clean helps prevent future staining. Ask us about this when you get in touch.
How long does a tile and grout clean take?
It depends on the size of the area. A standard kitchen or bathroom might take one to two hours. Larger tiled areas will take longer. We'll give you a time estimate when you enquire.
How often should tiles be professionally cleaned?
Most homes benefit from a professional tile clean every one to two years depending on usage, particularly in kitchens and bathrooms where grease and moisture build up.
