Cleaning Method

Your cleaner will charge different prices according to the cleaning method.

Chemical Hand Cleaning

Depending on the amount of cleaning your tile and grout need, your cleaner may opt for chemical hand cleaning. Your cleaner will get all the dirt and grime out of the grout lines using a commercial-grade cleaner and a grout brush. They’ll also scrub your tiles clean.

This costs $0.50 to $3 per square foot, and it’s the best option for cleaning small tiled areas.

Steam Cleaning 

Steam cleaning costs $0.50 to $3.50 per square foot. You might prefer this method if you’re sensitive to chemicals because the steam method only uses water. It’s also a good option for cleaning big spaces.

Frequency

The best time to clean tile and grout is when you schedule a deep cleaning, which should be at least one to two times a year. This should suffice as long as you’re regularly cleaning your tiles on a weekly basis, which helps prevent a build-up of dirt and grime. Remember, the easier it is to clean, the less time your grout cleaning pro needs, which costs you less.

Labor 

You can expect to pay your tile and grout cleaner $0.50 to $5 per square foot for their labor. The materials they use for cleaning are typically included in their labor rates.

• Additional Services: Carpet protectant, deodorizer, and other add-ons can increase the overall cost.
