8 Super Effective Methods for Cleaning Grout

Photo: istockphoto.com

Tile is beautiful, durable, and generally easy to clean, but cleaning grout? That’s a different story. Because it’s typically light-colored and has a porous composition, grout is prone to staining. In a tiled entryway or mudroom, dirt and grime are the usual culprits but in the kitchen, spills are more likely to blame. In the bathroom, homeowners must contend with grout that’s marred by mold and mildew.

The good news is that the best way to clean grout doesn’t come with a big price tag. It’s possible to clean and restore your grout using common household products and of course, a bit of elbow grease.

Before you get started on your grout-cleaning endeavors, understand that it is best to begin with the first cleaning option on this list, which is the mildest, least harmful method. If that doesn’t work, you can work your way up to incrementally more intense, odiferous, and potentially time-consuming options on this list. If you’re in doubt about whether a particular grout cleaner is suitable for your surface, test it in a hidden spot first—under an appliance in the kitchen, say, or behind the toilet in the bathroom. 

Tools & Materials

Before you begin cleaning, it’s important to understand the different types of grout.

There are several types of grout, and most types come in multiple colors. It’s important to take both type and hue into consideration before you start gathering cleaning supplies and making a cleaning plan. The two most common types of grout these days are traditional cement grout and the newer standard, epoxy grout. These grout types can be further broken down as follows:

Some types of grout are precolored and are as a result better able to resist stains and fading. There are also grout formulations that add polymers to provide helpful features such as moisture and mildew resistance. Finally, as you’re figuring out how best to clean your grout, it’s important to know whether the grout has been sealed, or possibly needs resealing. This might affect both how well the grout holds up and what solutions you can use to clean it.

1. Scrub dirty grout using warm water and a medium-bristle brush.

If you don’t already have a grout scrubber, most home centers and hardware stores carry a number of products that are specifically designed for the purpose of cleaning tile grout. To avoid damaging the grout, opt for a medium-bristle nylon brush, not a hard steel one. Simply spray warm water on the grout lines and scrub in a circular motion, then let it dry. Don’t use too much water or let it sit on the grout for too long. Remember: Porous cement grouts absorb water, which could lead to mildew.

2. Spray grout with equal parts vinegar and warm water.

If you know your grout has been sealed but it has accumulated heavy dirt or mild stains, turn to vinegar, that trusty old household staple. Fill a spray bottle with a half-and-half solution of vinegar and warm water. Spray the mixture on the grout, let it stand for 5 minutes, then scrub the surface with a stiff brush. Avoid using vinegar on unsealed grout.

3. Apply a baking soda paste and then spray with vinegar.

Cleaning grout with baking soda will bring even more power to the party. Here’s what to do: Cover grout lines with a paste of baking soda and water, then spray on the vinegar solution listed above (remember, only apply vinegar if the grout has been sealed). Once the mixture stops foaming, scrub with a brush, rinse with plain water, and wipe dry. If the grout is unsealed or needs resealing, apply just the baking soda solution and scrub carefully.

4. Pour on some hydrogen peroxide.

Moderate stains may require you to use hydrogen peroxide, which is available in most drug stores. You can use the product straight or as part of a homemade grout-cleaning paste of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. This mixture is typically safe for both sealed and unsealed grout.

5. Apply oxygen bleach and let it stand for up to 15 minutes.

For tougher stains on really grimy white grout, use oxygen bleach as a grout cleaner. You’ll find this cleanser is most often sold in powdered form; bestselling brands include OxiClean and Biokleen Oxygen Bleach Plus.

Before using oxygen bleach to clean grout, make sure the room is well ventilated, and then carefully read and follow the manufacturer’s directions for application. Let the oxygen bleach solution soak in for 10 or 15 minutes before rinsing. Always rinse with clean water and then wipe the area dry so that the dirt doesn’t resettle into the grout lines.

6. Try a commercial grout stain remover.

Applying one of the best grout cleaners on the market could make quick work of removing mold and mildew and restoring bright white grout lines. These products work in one of two ways: (1) spray and wipe, or (2) scour with a brush. Spray-on products claim to work without scrubbing. Though they save time and energy, they may contain harsher acids, solvents, or chlorine bleach.

Scouring with a soft brush and cleaner does require a little work, but this method can be especially effective on floors and heavily soiled grout. Before you begin using one of these products, read the active ingredients carefully, and heed the instructions—particularly the safety precautions.

7. Steam-clean the worst of grout stains.

The best steam mops are effective and environmentally friendly tools for cleaning grout—or, for that matter, many hard surfaces throughout the house. Bissell, Oreck, and Hoover all make steam cleaners for residential use.

8. Use chlorine bleach sparingly on grout.

Chlorine bleach and commercial cleansers containing chlorine bleach can be used sparingly in extreme cases to clean grout. It’s not a great idea to use them as your go-to grout cleaners because long-term use of caustic cleaners will erode grout. When all else fails, however, a bleach product such as Clorox Clean-Up might be effective.

If you’ve tried any or all of the above methods before you apply chlorine bleach, be sure to rinse the surface completely before proceeding with any chlorine bleach products. This is especially true of vinegar, because traces of vinegar mixed with bleach will emit a highly toxic chlorine gas into the air.

Grout Maintenance

Once you’re finished cleaning your grout, spray it with household vinegar or a mild grout cleaner and wipe it down once a week to keep it stain-free. Wiping grout with rubbing alcohol will also keep mold and mildew at bay. In any case, just a few spritzes and wipes a week can save you a lot of time and effort cleaning and help you preserve the attractive appearance of your tiled surfaces.

Final Thoughts

Cleaning grout begins with good prevention, including resealing the grout as needed, cleaning up kitchen spills right away, and using a mild homemade or commercial grout cleaner regularly. Once grout begins to look stained or dingy, refer to the steps above. An important reminder about how to clean grout is to start with the mildest approach because this will be the least likely to damage or discolor grout. If the grout stain persists, move on to progressively more intense methods. Always ensure adequate ventilation and wear rubber or nylon gloves when cleaning grout.

Finally, be sure to keep grout sealed and maintained according to your tiling professional’s or manufacturer’s recommendation, and avoid harsh cleansers or scrubbers if the tile and grout are prone to damage. Keeping grout clean and sealed beats having to paint, repair, or regrout it.

FAQs About Cleaning Grout

The methods outlined above range from the easiest way to clean grout up to more powerful approaches for more stubborn stains. If you still have questions about maintaining and cleaning tile grout, read on for answers to common concerns.

Q: Does Magic Eraser work on grout?

A Magic Eraser and a little warm water can remove residue from the surface of tiles and could be a simple addition to your regular grout-cleaning routine. In particular, regular wiping with a dampened Magic Eraser sponge can remove some of the gray surface on white grout. For heavier stains, you may want to choose it as your first scrubbing option instead of a brush or soft cloth, then progress to something tougher if needed.

Q: Can I use OxiClean to clean grout?

Although OxiClean is called “oxygen bleach,” it is actually made of a combination of dry hydrogen peroxide and sodium carbonate, which is similar to baking soda. It is less toxic to the environment and more color-safe than bleach.

Powdered OxiClean is safe for use on grout when mixed with water to form a liquid or paste and applied with a cloth, sponge, or grout scrubber. Give the solution from 5 to 30 minutes to sit on the grout before scrubbing away and rinsing.

Q: Can you use steel wool on grout?

Do not use steel wool on grout. While the abrasive pad might scrub away the stain, it could also take some of the grout along with it. Plus, steel wool can scratch the tile surrounding the grout joint. Opt instead for a soft sponge or nylon bristle brush, maybe even one mounted on a power scrubber, always starting with the least abrasive material first.

    Introduction

    At the final stage of the repair work on laying tiles, grouting begins. Seams with grout do not allow moisture to penetrate between the plates. When the building shrinks, the finish can also move, and the seams provide it with this space to move. At the same time, the seams help hide the difference in calibers. Grout for tile joints is also called "fugue". During home repairs, two types of fugue compositions are used - cement and epoxy. After processing the seams on freshly laid ceramics, stains and traces of grouting inevitably remain. The problem is complicated by the fact that the fugue dries quickly and it becomes more difficult to wipe it off. The decision, the better to wipe the dried mass of the fugue from the tile and how best to do it, also depends on the type of surface of the tile ceramics. nine0003

    Basic cleaning rules

    Important rule - than before
    start removing traces of grout from the tile, the easier it will be to scrub off. This principle applies to all types of tiles, except glossy and polished. It is worth paying attention to the fact that the approximate time for the initial drying of tile grout is 30 minutes. After this time, you can wash the cladding with warm water for the first time after installation. nine0003

    In order to better understand how to clean fugu from tiles, you need to get answers to the following questions:

    1. What material is the grout made of?

    2. How wet is the grout?

    3. What is the surface of the tiles?

    It is also worth observing the following rules:

    · It is better to use a sponge or foam rubber for cleaning. You can also rub the stains with felt, burlap or other hard cloth. nine0017 Wipe dry and get rid of white deposits from used cleaning products with a felt mitt.
    · It must be remembered that the movements in the process of cleaning tile ceramics must be soft and careful. This is especially true for a polished glossy surface. You have to be very careful with her.
    · Do not use abrasives or abrasive cleaners to remove grout marks from polished finishes.
    · When trying a new security product, it's best to test it on a small area of ​​the tile. nine0003

    · Use an old toothbrush to apply chemical cleaners. A metal brush must not be used.
    · It is best to remove the reveal from a vertical surface from top to bottom. On a horizontal surface, start cleaning from the far corner to the door.
    · When removing dirt from ceramics, use thick masking tape to seal the seams. It will not allow solvent or other means to get on the seam. If, however, the agent gets on the seam itself, it is better to immediately remove it with a rag or sponge. nine0017 · Rubber gloves are recommended for cleaning work. Also, if you use chemicals, you should wear a respirator for protection.
    · At the end of cleaning operations, the joints can be treated with fungicides. They will reliably protect the tiled layer from mold and mildew. You can also apply water-repellent impregnation to the seams.

    Cleaning different types of grout

    Fugue compositions are based on different components that determine their main characteristics. In this regard, you need to look at what material the grout consists of, and how quickly it dries.

    This is a grout that has not set and dried completely. Within a day after application, it is still well removed. If you have a tile with a matte or structured finish, then you must immediately remove the grout from it. Use a dry cloth or spatula. This method is considered the simplest and most economical cleaning method. You can use it when the grout has already dried up a little. It is necessary to gently pry the grout with a spatula and completely remove it from the tile. The rest is wiped with a damp cloth. It is necessary to act with a spatula very carefully so that there is no damage left on the tile. nine0017

    If we talk about a polished or glossy surface, then the removal of stains from the grout should be carried out in a day. Otherwise, scratches may remain on the tile. A damp sponge is also suitable for removing fresh grout. It is recommended to squeeze the water out of the sponge so that excess moisture does not damage the integrity of the seams. It is necessary to wipe the lining until all stains disappear.

    Use a damp sponge or cloth to remove grout. It usually takes about half an hour for the cement to set. After this time, you can remove excess grout from the tile. When wiping stains or removing grout from tiles, it is also important to ensure that moisture from the sponge does not wash the grout out of the joints.
    Glossy glazed tiles must be washed carefully, as small particles of cementitious grout can cause scratches.
    Plasticizers and other adhesives may be present in cement grout. nine0017 To remove them, the following products are suitable:

    Vinegar 10%
    Citric acid 15%
    Glycerin solution in a ratio of 1 to 3

    Each of these products copes well with cement grout. Moreover, they can even be mixed with each other.
    Vinegar is applied to the contaminated surface for half an hour and then the remains of the fugue are removed.

    Glycerin solution will help remove dirt from tiles with a more delicate surface. It is necessary to wipe them with a dried fugue. It can be left on the tile for an average of an hour, and then washed off with a damp cloth. nine0155

    Epoxy grout, which is made on the basis of epoxy resin, is not in vain considered the highest quality. It does not absorb water and is mold resistant. This grout is durable and hardens quickly. It is easy to apply as it applies evenly. Epoxy grout is available in different colors.

    It must be borne in mind that due to the fact that such a composition dries quickly, it is possible to clean this grout from the tile only within one day. It is not sensitive to the action of organic acids, as well as alkalis. From the next day, it will only be possible to scrape it off mechanically. nine0155

    Remove with a solvent or an acid reagent. Finding well-known brands of such solutions will not be difficult in hardware and building stores. The active elements of such products soften the epoxy and help to gently remove it from the tile coating. A place with a fugue is sprayed with a spray bottle or moistened. The cleanser is applied for the time indicated in the instructions, and then the surface is cleaned with a sponge. The later you start to treat the place of contamination with epoxy fugue, the longer it takes to moisten it with a special agent. nine0003

    A more complete wet cleaning is carried out after all contamination from the grout has been removed from the lining.
    If there are any areas of dirt left on the plates, you can rub them with a cloth, and then rinse with a solution of vinegar and water, diluted in equal proportions.
    Glossy tiles become shiny when washed with normal soapy water. After 10 minutes, wipe the tiles dry with a soft cloth.

    Embossed tiles are tiles with a matt or structured glaze. Such surfaces can be washed with a dry powdered citric acid composition. nine0003

    To do this, follow these steps:


    Also suitable for embossed or textured tiles is a 2:3 mixture of vinegar and soda. This composition is applied to the dirty area, wait 10 minutes. Then clean this place with a brush. nine0017 If you need to clean porcelain stoneware, you can use white spirit. To do this, one tablespoon of this remedy is dissolved in a glass of water. This composition is poured onto the stove and then removed with a sponge.

    In extreme cases, you can also use a thinner or acid. nine0003

    At the same time for relief and porous tiles, a solution of hydrochloric acid diluted 1 to 1 with water can help. The prepared solution is applied to the tile with a brush, then this place is passed with a soft, damp sponge. This tool perfectly washes the grout from the pores of the tile. If you need to wash a large area, then take a large brush with a mop. Then pour a bucket of acid diluted with water on the floor and wipe it with a brush. After you can wash off this mixture from the tile with a hose or mop. nine0155

    How to prevent contamination?

    During tile installation repairs, it will not be possible to ensure that the grout does not get on the tile at all when grouting. However, steps can be taken to help minimize ceramic coating contamination.

    For this you need:

    1. The perimeter of the tile joints is covered with masking tape or adhesive tape, which will protect the tile from grouting at the edges.

      nine0033

    2. Cellophane film can be used to cover the entire surface of the tiling. In the bathroom, you can cover them with plumbing.

    Tilers also recommend using several products at once. So for the edges around the perimeter, masking tape is used, at the joints they use adhesive tape and furniture staples.

    0082


    During renovation, take care to protect the fresh cladding from mortar. Use cellophane and masking tape. In this way, you will reduce the amount of dirt and reduce the work of cleaning up traces of the fugue. As you can see, there are different ways to clean traces of tile grout from tiles. It is important to immediately determine what type of grout you are dealing with and what surface of the tile. Based on this, they decide whether to immediately start removing the dirt or whether it is worth waiting for the time. Before cleaning, it is better to follow the rules listed here. nine0017 To remove cement grout, improvised means such as vinegar, soda and citric acid are suitable. Epoxy fugue, as more resistant, is removed immediately with a special solvent or acid with a reagent.
    Follow these instructions and after repair you will be able to effectively remove all remaining dirt from the tile finish without harm to the coating itself.

    How to clean grout from tiles: how to remove it correctly?

    If you chose tiles as the interior decoration of a bathroom, kitchen or other room, then the process of its installation will not do without such a technological stage as grouting. After performing this operation, no matter how hard you try, traces of the applied fugue remain on the lined surface and, as a result, the question arises of how to wash the grout from the tile. nineOl000 , being, without exaggeration, a very important stage in the cladding of a particular room, it requires increased attention to all work related to it, including cleaning the tiles from the remnants of the fugue from the tile. For example, excessive efforts to wipe the grout off the tile can irrevocably spoil all the work done earlier on laying ceramics. nine0003

    An incorrectly selected grout cleaner can also affect the quality of the tiled surface.

    Removing fresh grout

    The compounds used for processing and grouting have a short setting time, the hardening time is usually 12-20 minutes, so it is advisable to remove the grout that has fallen on the tile as soon as possible. Moreover, it will be possible to wipe it off without much effort and the use of special tools, using an ordinary sponge and warm water. nine0003

    The work must be carried out carefully so as not to blur or damage the grout between the seams, it is unlikely that it will be possible to wash off traces of grout in one run, so we repeat the cleaning procedure several times, thoroughly washing and squeezing the sponge.

    The grout is best removed directly during the grouting process, alternating between grouting and cleaning

    0003

    • hardened grout must be cleaned with a special grater with an abrasive coating, do not forget that this must be done by controlling the pressure on the tool so as not to spoil the seam and not damage the front surface of the tile.
    • In the next step, traces and stains from the grout can be removed with a damp sponge, then constantly making sure that it is clean and does not leave stains on the tiled surface.

    The process of cleaning hardened dirt is carried out from the bottom of the tiled surface, and the remaining grout must be washed off from above the tiled finish. nine0003

    Removing the hardened grout

    If, for any reason, it was not possible to wipe off the grout, and it has acquired its final hardness, it is necessary to resort to special chemical compositions. The product is a concentrated acid-based cleaner, its composition allows you to remove dried grout, tile adhesive, cement, and mortar.

    To clean ceramics from contamination, the product, in the right amount, is applied with a brush to the dried grout and the time is given for the composition to soften the contamination to a state where it can be easily removed from the surface by traditional methods. Namely, using warm water and a clean sponge, achieve a state of the surface on which there should be no streaks and traces of grout. nine0003

    Ready grout is more convenient to use, however, after opening the container it quickly hardens. After removing contaminants, the cladding is thoroughly washed from solvent residues to prevent damage to the front surface of the tile with a strong cleaner.

    Taking into account the high concentration of the active substance in these formulations, it is necessary to strictly observe the safety rules when working with strong acids, and to use personal protective equipment. nine0003

    Removing grout based on epoxy resins

    When using epoxy grout for sealing joints between tiles, all the nuances and features of this composition must be taken into account. Very fast setting times of epoxy mixtures oblige to work quickly and accurately, preparing a small amount of grout and preventing the composition from getting on the surface to be coated.

    After laying the tiles, the grout can be removed from the tiles with a special tool with a metal tip

    If, nevertheless, the grout has got on the ceramic, it must be removed immediately and special reagents for epoxy resin cleaners must be used for this. After a day or more, it will be possible to clean such contaminants only mechanically, but it is fraught with damage to the ceramic surface, so such a development of the event should not be allowed.

    Household chemicals and folk methods for removing grout

    If you didn’t have specialized tools at hand to remove grout from a tiled surface, then you will cope with the task, detergents and cleaning products for household chemicals, usually available in any household, will help . It can be:

    • acid-based detergents;
    • Descalers for surfaces.

    If you do not want to use household chemicals for any reason, then cleaning methods considered folk will come to the rescue. The following compositions can be used to clean dried grout:
