Everyone wants their tiles to be clean and glossy, but how you get there depends on how much time, energy, and resources you have. It can feel like a full-time work to keep the flooring clean in North Shore houses because people walk around with dirty shoes, beach sand, and pet paw prints all the time. Should you do it yourself or hire a professional? Read here!

For regular maintenance, doing it yourself works great. Everyday dust and minor stains may be cleaned up with a decent mop and some common household materials like baking soda and vinegar. It’s faster, cheaper, and even a little rewarding to watch the dirt go away when you clean up tiny mistakes or conduct routine maintenance yourself.

The problem? Grout lines, textured tiles, and active areas like kitchens and entryways are where dirt likes to hide. Grime builds up over time, and no matter how hard you scrub, the grout can stay dark.

That’s when pros really help. They use strong steam cleaners and extraction machines to blast away years of dirt and grime that have built up deep in your tiles and grout. They also use cutting-edge treatments for difficult stains that home cures can’t get rid of, like pet mishaps, red wine spills, and mildew. What happened? Floors that appear and feel clean and help get rid of germs and allergens.

So, what’s the best thing to do? It all depends. It’s fine to clean your tiles and get rid of little stains yourself, but it’s best to hire professionals when your tiles lose their luster, your grout gets darker, or your allergies act up. What is the best way? Make sure to clean your home regularly and get professionals to do deep cleaning every once in a while. Your knees and your tiles will be happy.
