Mopping your tile floors only cleans the surface. Meanwhile, dirt, grease, and bacteria build up in porous grout lines where household cleaners cannot penetrate. Over time, your grout darkens and your tile loses its original luster. Professional tile and grout cleaning from Shiny Rhino restores the original beauty of your floors in a single visit.

Tile surfaces are durable and easy to maintain, but grout is a different story. Grout is porous, which means it absorbs dirt, spills, and bacteria over time. Regular mopping pushes dirty water into grout lines rather than cleaning them. Our professional tile and grout cleaning uses high-pressure extraction and specialized alkaline solutions to blast away years of buildup, leaving your grout looking like the day it was installed.
High-Pressure Extraction Equipment
Our specialized tile cleaning tools deliver high-pressure water and suction directly into grout lines, removing dirt that has accumulated over months or years. The difference is visible immediately. We will clean a test area first so you can see the results before we proceed.

Not sure if professional cleaning is worth it? We clean a small test area during our initial inspection so you can compare the results to your existing grout. Most customers are amazed at the difference. No commitment required.
Professional Grout Sealing
After cleaning, we apply a professional-grade sealant that creates an invisible barrier over your grout lines. This sealant prevents future staining, makes routine mopping more effective, and keeps your grout looking clean significantly longer between professional visits.
Grout Color Restoration Available
If your grout has stained beyond what cleaning can fix, we offer color sealing, a process that applies a colored sealant to your grout lines, restoring them to their original shade or giving them an entirely new color. It is a fraction of the cost of regrouting.
