  • Want to clean grout without scrubbing on your hands and knees? Me too! I tested 6 ways to clean grout, and during the test, I found a hidden gem in the hallway of the home we were cleaning. It was stuffed under a towel, gathering dust. I was so excited she had one, that decided to test as well. And guess what... that hidden gem became the winner hands down. The best part is... the winner is chemical-free!!! I wouldn't want to clean grout any other way.

    In this video, I'll test Zep grout cleaner, Oxi-clean, Oxi-clean max force, Magic eraser and Dawn Platinum Powerwash. It's important to know how to clean tile grout if you have a lot of tile floors. Grout how to clean is a topic always on my mind... I have a lot of grout in my home. I'm always trying to find a way to clean my tile grout without scrubbing.

    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS! The ceramic tile floor in my kitchen was embarrassing but trying to clean the grout with chemicals and a drill brush took hours and was exhausting. Right after I saw this video I went onto Amazon and purchased a steam cleaner similar to the one you talk about in the video. I just cleaned the grout on the floor in my kitchen and it did an amazing job! THANKS! THANKS! THANKS!

    As a stone restoration tech. Zep is the best chemical cleaner but it has to be used on porcelain and ceramic tiles only because it will stain natural stone.

    This is not a commercial, but as a fellow sufferer, I wanted to share my success. I have been a type 1 diabetic for coming up on 43 years and also have Gastroparesis and went through many unplanned hospitalizations and other treatments, but I was fortunate to find a great doc who was involved in a study to impact as gastric pacer (basically a pacemaker for your stomach) and it changed my life. If I were her, I would look into this. Mine is made by Medtronic and I have had zero hospitalizations due to Gastroparesis since the first implant in 2005 and highly recommend it!

      I'm getting more and more curious what the lowest maintenance floors are now .. I don't like carpet because it's impossible to do a full deep clean (even with a rug doctor - I went over my carpets 3x and the water was still grey). Tile is easy for regular cleanings, but the grout is a bit harder to maintain. I wonder about engineered hardwood / laminate flooring.

    I've been squeezing water on the cracks with a washcloth and then sprinkling comet on the cracks and scrubbing them with a denture brush and it's working great. And, then I wipe it down with a wet cloth and I can't believe the difference! I still have to finish the laundry room and the hallway. This works better than the methods that she's demonstrating in the above video.

    Hmm, watched a bunch of videos on how to clean my shower wall tiles today, and was shocked by your floor test. I wonder if it'll be the same with the shower. I actually have a steam cleaner I don't remember last time I used, but maybe it's time to drag it out instead of trying these chemicals or home remedies...

  • @high_fructose_corn_syrup

    I have tried so many products on my floor grout, especially where the dog runs in and out of the house. My grout color is called parchment, its like in-between a taupe and bone with a salmon undertone. The only thing that has worked so far is Clorex Kitchen Clean-Up with Bleach. Let it sit for 5 mins or so and then use a brush to scrub (I have a long handled grout brush) the dirt and stains away. It's a bit strong smelling but it works.

    Well As a professional cleaner, that owned a commercial maintenance business, steam cleaning is not the end all. It's good for what it does but there cases where a emulsifier is needed to get all of the grout and tile cleaned. Then you steam cleaned/clean up the rest.
