Orlando Tile and Grout Cleaning Company
Standard mopping cleans tile surfaces but leaves grout lines dark. Grout is porous – in Orlando’s year-round humidity, it absorbs moisture, dirt and organic matter that mopping cannot reach. Over time, grout lines darken, discolor and develop mold and mildew.
Philip White Painting and Restoration LLC uses a truck-mounted high-pressure hot water system to deep-clean grout lines and restore tile surfaces to like-new condition. We clean all tile types found in Orlando homes – ceramic, porcelain, travertine, marble and other natural stone.
After cleaning, we apply a professional penetrating grout sealer that protects your grout from re-soiling and moisture absorption. IICRC certified, BBB Accredited A+, 5.0 Google reviews, serving Orlando since 1989.
Trusted in Orlando
Tile is the dominant flooring type in Central Florida. The majority of Orlando homes have ceramic or porcelain tile in kitchens, bathrooms, and living areas, and a significant proportion feature travertine or other natural stone. Despite being a durable surface, tile and grout present a specific cleaning challenge: the tile itself is non-porous and easy to wipe clean, but the grout lines between tiles are porous and trap dirt, bacteria, mold spores and mineral deposits at a depth that household mops and scrub brushes cannot reach.
Philip White’s truck-mounted high-pressure hot water system operates at temperatures and pressures that penetrate grout lines completely, flushing embedded contamination out from the base of the grout rather than simply loosening surface soiling. We then apply a professional-grade penetrating sealer to protect restored grout from re-soiling, the step that makes professional cleaning last.
Our tile and grout cleaning service is a complete process that covers pre-treatment, deep extraction, grout sealing and final inspection. Every job includes grout sealing at no additional charge because cleaning grout and not sealing it immediately allows re-soiling within weeks. We bring the right cleaning solution for your specific tile type to every job.
Every cleaning begins with a detailed inspection of the tile and grout. We identify surface materials, test cleaning solutions in a discreet area, and apply a pH-balanced pre-treatment tailored to the tile type. This process helps loosen embedded soil and prepares grout lines for safe and effective deep cleaning.
Our truck-mounted hot water extraction system delivers professional-grade cleaning power that portable equipment cannot match. High-pressure hot water penetrates grout lines while simultaneously extracting dirt, bacteria, soap residue, and mineral deposits. The result is cleaner, healthier floors with minimal drying time.
After deep cleaning, grout lines are left clean but vulnerable to moisture and staining. We apply a professional penetrating grout sealer that creates an invisible protective barrier against water, dirt, and common household contaminants. This helps keep grout cleaner longer and extends the results of professional cleaning.
Natural stone surfaces such as travertine, marble, slate and limestone require specialized care. Acidic cleaners can permanently damage stone, so we use pH-neutral cleaning solutions and appropriate pressure levels to safely remove dirt and buildup. Our sealing process helps protect against moisture, staining, mold and mildew, extending the life and beauty of your stone surfaces.
Over time, grout lines become stained, faded, and discolored from daily use. Our grout color restoration process renews grout with a professional colorant that penetrates and seals the surface for a uniform appearance. The result is cleaner-looking grout, long-lasting color, and improved resistance to future stains and moisture.
Bathroom and shower tile are exposed to moisture, soap residue, body oils,and mineral deposits that create soap scum and mold buildup. We use specialized cleaning solutions and high-pressure extraction to safely remove contamination and restore tile and grout surfaces. If mold has spread beneath the tile, our restoration team can assess the proper solution.
Florida’s combination of year-round humidity, warm temperatures, and minimal seasonal variation creates conditions for grout deterioration that do not exist in cooler or drier climates. Grout is a porous, cementitious material that absorbs moisture continuously in humid environments. In Orlando, where relative humidity regularly exceeds 70 percent for most of the year, this means grout lines in kitchen, bathroom and living area tile are essentially never fully dry. Persistent moisture creates ideal conditions for mold spore germination, bacterial growth and mineral deposit accumulation inside grout pores. The result is grout that darkens and develops biological contamination faster than in northern or western states and that requires professional cleaning at more frequent intervals to maintain a healthy and attractive appearance.
Professional tile and grout cleaning every 12 to 18 months is recommended for most Orlando homes. More frequently for homes with heavy foot traffic, pets or natural stone flooring. Regular professional cleaning prevents permanent grout damage that requires costly regrouting or tile replacement.
Travertine, marble, limestone and slate are beautiful flooring choices that require specialized care. Unlike ceramic and porcelain, natural stone is acid-sensitive and can be permanently etched by common household cleaners including vinegar, citrus-based cleaners, and many commercial grout cleaning products. Natural stone is also more porous than ceramic tile, which in Florida’s humid climate means it absorbs moisture, biological growth and mineral deposits more readily. Philip White uses pH-neutral cleaning solutions formulated specifically for natural stone, operates at appropriate pressure levels for the stone’s surface and applies a penetrating stone sealer after cleaning that protects the stone’s pores without altering its natural appearance.
If your natural stone flooring has been etched, scratched or damaged by improper cleaning products, contact us for an assessment. Some etching and surface damage can be addressed through professional honing and resealing. Avoiding full replacement of expensive stone flooring.
Commercial tile floors in restaurants, offices, retail stores, medical facilities and apartment communities accumulate soiling at a rate that residential floors do not. High foot traffic, grease splatter in commercial kitchens, constant moisture in restrooms and the absence of regular professional maintenance create grout conditions that require specialized commercial cleaning equipment and scheduling flexibility. Philip White Painting and Restoration LLC provides commercial tile and grout cleaning throughout Orlando with scheduling available after business hours, on weekends and in phases that minimize disruption to your operations. We service all commercial tile types and provide written documentation of cleaning and sealing for property maintenance records.

Call (407) 860-5846 or request a free estimate online. For standard ceramic and porcelain tile jobs, estimates can be provided over the phone based on square footage and room description. For natural stone flooring, heavily contaminated tile or commercial properties We recommend an in-home assessment to evaluate the tile type, grout condition and appropriate cleaning and sealing approach. We typically schedule appointments within 24 to 48 hours.
Our technician arrives, inspects all tile and grout surfaces, confirms the tile type and grout composition, and tests cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area. We apply pH-appropriate pre-spray to all surfaces, allowing proper dwell time for the solution to penetrate and loosen embedded soil. Grout lines receive targeted agitation with a stiff brush to work the pre-spray solution deeper into porous grout before extraction begins.
We connect our truck-mounted high-pressure hot water system and clean all tile and grout surfaces using a rotating tile wand that simultaneously injects hot pressurized water into grout lines and extracts the loosened contamination. High-traffic areas and heavily soiled grout lines receive additional passes. For natural stone surfaces, we use appropriate pressure settings and pH-neutral solutions throughout. All waste water is extracted and removed from your home.
After cleaning, we allow surfaces to dry sufficiently and apply professional penetrating grout sealer to all grout lines. For color sealing or natural stone sealing, we use the appropriate sealer product for the specific surface. We conduct a full floor-by-floor walkthrough with you after sealing, reviewing all cleaned and sealed areas. We provide care instructions and maintenance recommendations before closing the job. Your satisfaction is confirmed before we leave.
We use a truck-mounted high-pressure hot water cleaning system on every tile and grout job. This professional equipment delivers temperatures and pressures that portable machines and consumer equipment cannot match, penetrating grout lines completely to flush embedded contamination from the base of the grout rather than the surface only.
Every tile and grout cleaning job includes professional penetrating grout sealer application at no additional charge. We believe that cleaning grout without sealing it is a disservice to the customer, unsealed grout re-soils within weeks. Sealing is part of our standard service, not an optional upsell.

The cost depends on the size of your floor and how dirty the grout is. Small areas cost less, while large or very dirty floors may cost more. We offer free estimates so you know the price before we start.
In Orlando’s humid climate, we recommend professional tile and grout cleaning every 12 to 18 months for most homes. Kitchens and bathrooms benefit from cleaning at the shorter end of that range due to cooking grease and constant moisture exposure. Homes with pets, heavy foot traffic, or natural stone flooring benefit from annual cleaning. Homes that had their grout professionally sealed after the last cleaning can often extend the interval because sealed grout resists soiling significantly better than unsealed grout.
Yes. travertine, marble, limestone and slate are among the tile types we clean regularly in Orlando. Natural stone requires pH-neutral cleaning solutions and specific pressure settings to avoid etching or surface damage. We test our cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area before beginning and use only stone-safe products throughout the job. After cleaning, we apply a penetrating stone sealer to protect the stone’s pores. If your natural stone has been etched or damaged by acidic cleaners, contact us for an assessment. Some surface damage can be addressed through professional honing and resealing.
Yes. We apply a professional penetrating grout sealer after every tile and grout cleaning job at no additional charge. We believe cleaning grout without sealing it immediately provides only temporary results because unsealed grout re-soils rapidly in Orlando’s humid environment. We also offer grout color sealing for grout that has been permanently stained or discolored. This is a separate service with a separate cost but is included in the estimate conversation.
Yes. Bathroom and shower tile cleaning is one of our most common services. Shower tile presents the most challenging cleaning conditions in any home. Constant moisture, soap scum, calcium deposits from Florida’s hard water and mold growth in grout lines. We use specialized solutions formulated to dissolve soap scum and mineral deposits without damaging tile or grout, combined with our high-pressure extraction system to flush all contamination from shower and bathroom surfaces. We also address mold in bathroom grout and for severe cases where mold has penetrated beyond the tile into the substrate. Our restoration team can assess the full scope of remediation needed.
Tile surfaces are non-porous and dry within 1 to 2 hours after professional cleaning. Grout lines retain slightly more moisture and are typically fully dry within 2 to 4 hours. We recommend staying off cleaned tile for at least one hour after the job is complete. In Orlando’s humid climate, we always deploy air movers to accelerate drying and reduce the time before you can use your floors normally. Grout sealer applied after cleaning should be allowed to cure for 24 hours before wet mopping.
Yes. If cleaning alone cannot restore your grout color, we offer grout color sealing. A grout colorant is applied to clean grout lines and dries to a uniform, sealed finish that permanently covers staining and discoloration. Color sealer also allows homeowners to change their grout color entirely. Updating the appearance of tile floors without the cost of replacement. The colorant acts as both a color restoration and a long-lasting sealer in one application. Color restoration is priced separately from standard cleaning and is discussed during the free estimate.
Yes. We provide commercial tile and grout cleaning for restaurants, offices, retail stores, medical facilities, apartment communities and other commercial properties throughout Orlando. Commercial cleaning is scheduled around your business hours. We offer evening, weekend, and after-hours appointments. Commercial tile cleaning uses the same truck-mounted high-pressure system as residential cleaning. We provide written documentation of all work performed for property maintenance records. Call us to discuss commercial scheduling and pricing for your specific property.
