The Best Ways to Preserve Your New Home with Residential Tile and Grout Cleaning and Sealing

September 15, 2015

More and more homeowners and first-time buyers are looking to flip, renovate, and restore their properties, many of which are decades and even a century old. While some homeowners are quick to call in a renovation team, such measures are not always necessary. More often than not, residential tile and grout cleaning and sealing, stone, and hardwood surface cleaning are really all that's needed for long-term care. If you're a new homeowner, or prospective home buyer, there are some great ways to preserve your new long-term home investment.


The first sign of a lived-in home that most realtors neglect prior to selling is dirty tile and grout. Not only does dirty, stained tile and grout look bad, but it can be full of mold and mildew. One of the leading causes of home damage and degradation is the accumulation of mold. And let's not forget about the detrimental effects it can have on your health. Fungal infections, allergies, and difficult breathing are just a few of the nasty side-effects of mold exposure. A good tile and grout cleaning can bring life to shabby and aged floors, as well as protecting your home and family from pesky mold and mildew.


Your new home may also have damaged caulking, which is a big worry and can lead to future leaks! You should always consider inspecting your caulk when you first move in, just to make sure it does not pose a threat. It's no secret that more and more prospective homeowners are buying with the intention of permanent residence. That being said, taking the proper measures to protect your investment is imperative. Getting regular maintenance done is not always a walk in the park, but the results are well-worth the effort.
