When and Where is the Best Time to Have Grout Sealer Applied?
Upon completion of a Professional Tile and Grout Cleaning Service
Maintaining clean floors is a constant challenge in residential or commercial settings. Professional tile and grout cleaning, as well as sealing, are essential to keeping floors in good condition. It’s recommended to have this service done annually, as it is not a one-time fix.
Porcelain and ceramic tiles are the most commonly used, and sanded grout joints are typical. In 2020, wood plank look-alike tile and grout were Las Vegas’ most popular choices, whether textured or untextured.
When it comes to natural stone surfaces, like travertine, marble, and granite, unsanded grout is used, making it even more susceptible to permanent discoloration if not sealed. Furthermore, these surfaces often have thinner grout joints and are more porous. Thus, shower grout sealer service is required for unsanded grout joints found in shower stalls and countertops.
Purchase of a New Home (Untraveled Surfaces)
In Las Vegas, NV, homes are popping up everywhere, and along with the spread comes tile. Tile is the most common material due to its durability, especially in heavily traveled areas like kitchens and baths.
Light Grout vs. Dark Grout
Choosing light grout is usually chosen moreover than darker grout. Light grout gets black faster, however, darker grout typically hazes or “powders” more from efflorescence.

Thin Grout Joints vs. Thick Grout Joints
Many people strongly believe that thin grout joints are superior to thicker normal ones. However, the truth is that standard 3/8″ grout joints are optimal for two primary reasons: first, there is less grout breakup, and second, sanded grout is used. When the grout joints are smaller than 3/8″, unsanded grout must be used. Unfortunately, unsanded grout does not clean up as well and easily as sanded grout, creating a “creamy versus chunky” texture difference.
Purchase of a Resale Home
If you purchase a pre-owned home, you might notice that the tile and grout flooring appears dirty and emits an unpleasant odor. However, as a new homeowner, this presents an excellent opportunity to have the floors expertly cleaned and sealed to seem new again! Typically, with the help of a professional tile and grout cleaning service, the tile and grout can be effectively restored to their original “like new” state.
Remodel or Renovation
Some individuals are currently engaged in home renovations or property upgrades, which may involve either upgrading or downgrading. Often, they are required to live or conduct business on their properties while the renovation projects are ongoing. In instances where new tiles are installed alongside old tiles, it’s important to first clean the old tiles before sealing all tiles and grout simultaneously.
Grout Haze and Powdering of Grout
When tiles and grout are situated in isolated areas, it may be possible to only apply to seal to them. However, before the service, it’s crucial to ensure that there is no preexisting grout haze, powdering, grout, or any debris from the construction process. Therefore, it’s recommended to check with your tile installer or contractor and ensure any mess is cleared before my cleaning service begins.
