What we do
Tile and grout cleaning is the service HomeProud Inc is built around, our specialty and the work we are known for across Orlando. Most Central Florida homes need it long before they realize. Homes here run tile through the kitchen, the bathrooms, the entryway, and half the living space, because it handles the heat and the humidity better than carpet. The trade-off is the grout. Grout lines sit lower than the tile, they stay damp in Orlando's humidity, and damp grout becomes a magnet for mildew, mold, and ground-in dirt. A mop just pushes gray water across the top and leaves the buildup down in the channel.
We clean tile and grout with a high-pressure spinner machine that hits the whole floor with hot water and the right chemistry for the surface, whether it is ceramic, porcelain, or natural stone. It lifts the mildew and stain buildup out of the grout channel and brings the lines back to their actual color, not a bleached-over version of it. Then we seal the grout so the next round of moisture and dirt sits on top instead of soaking in.
Floors, showers, backsplashes, and entryways all qualify. Eco-friendly products are available on request. Adam Corbett does the work himself, licensed and insured, no subcontracting, and the job is guaranteed.
Our process
We test a small area first to confirm the right pressure and solution for your specific tile and stone, because porcelain, saltillo, and travertine do not all take the same treatment. Then we apply the cleaner, let it break down the mildew and buildup, and run the high-pressure spinner so the hot water lifts the grime out of the grout channel and vacuums it back up in the same pass.
Once the floor is clean and dry, we apply a penetrating sealer to the grout so it resists the humidity, mildew, and everyday spills. Sealed grout stays clean longer and wipes up instead of staining.
Who tile and grout cleaning is for
- Kitchens and bathrooms where the grout has gone gray or spotted with mildew
- Tile-heavy Central Florida homes where humidity keeps the grout damp
- Entryways and hallways with ground-in traffic dirt
- Natural stone that needs a gentler, correct method
- Pre-listing or move-out cleans where floors have to show well
- Anyone tired of mopping and getting no result
Humidity is the real reason your grout looks gray
Central Florida homes are tiled almost everywhere, because tile handles the heat and the humidity better than carpet does. The catch is the grout. Grout lines sit lower than the tile and they hold moisture, and in Orlando's humidity that moisture does not evaporate the way it would up north. Damp grout grows mildew, and it traps everyday dirt and grease into a gray crust that a mop cannot reach.
That is why so many Orlando floors look dirty right after they are mopped. The mop moves dirty water across the surface and leaves the buildup down in the grout channel. It takes pressure and the right chemistry to actually pull it out, which is the difference between mopping and cleaning.
The spinner machine, then a seal, so it lasts
We clean tile and grout with a high-pressure spinner machine. It is an enclosed head that hits the tile and grout with hot water and vacuums it back up in the same pass, so it reaches down into the grout channel where the mildew and buildup actually live. That is how the grout comes back to its true color instead of a bleached-over version of it.
Cleaning gets the grout back. Sealing keeps it there. After the deep clean we apply a penetrating sealer so the next round of humidity, mildew, and spills sits on top instead of soaking in. Sealed grout stays clean noticeably longer and wipes up instead of staining, which matters a lot in a climate that never really dries out.
Ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone are not the same job
Porcelain, ceramic, saltillo, and travertine do not all take the same pressure or the same solution. Natural stone in particular needs a gentler method and the correct chemistry, or you risk etching a floor you were trying to restore. That is why we test a small area first on every job.
If a floor needs a specialty approach, you hear it from us before we start, not after. We would rather flag it up front than surprise you, and it is the same reason we quote the real job instead of a flat rate that ignores what is actually on your floor.

Central Florida heat and humidity are hard on a home. Summer storms and months of high humidity feed mold and mildew in grout and carpet backing, and spring oak pollen settles into every fiber.

Tile and Grout Cleaning FAQs
Why does my grout look dirty even after I mop?
A mop moves dirty water across the surface and leaves the grime down in the low grout channel. In Orlando the grout also stays damp, so mildew sets in on top of the dirt. Grout has to be cleaned with pressure and the right solution to actually pull that buildup out, which is what our spinner machine does.
What is the tile spinner machine?
It is an enclosed high-pressure head that blasts the tile and grout with hot water and vacuums it straight back up in one pass. That is how it reaches down into the grout channel, which a mop or a hand brush never really does.
Do you seal the grout after cleaning?
Yes, and we recommend it. A penetrating sealer keeps the humidity, mildew, and spills sitting on top of the grout instead of soaking in, so the floor stays clean noticeably longer in a Central Florida home.
Can you clean natural stone like travertine or saltillo?
Yes. Natural stone needs a gentler method and the correct chemistry, which is why we test a small area first. We will tell you upfront if a floor needs a specialty approach.
Will cleaning make my old grout look new again?
It comes back to its true color, which is usually a dramatic difference from the gray or mildew it turned. If the grout is cracked or missing in spots, cleaning will not rebuild it, and we will point that out so you know what you are getting.
Do you clean shower tile too?
Yes. Shower tile and grout take the worst of the humidity and soap scum, and the grout is where mildew shows first. Tell us if the shower is the main concern and we will plan for it.
