Travertine Tile Cleaning In The Greenhaven/Pocket Area

Even pitted or textured ceramic/porcelain man-made tile can be hard to maintain and keep clean so a pitted natural stone tile can be quite the chore. After pre-treating all the areas with a cleaning solution that wasn't too high on the PH scale to protect the travertine I did a deep scrub with a 175-floor buffer machine to scrub the tile and release all the embedded soil before cleaning. Then I used truck-mounted cleaning equipment to fully rinse the tile and grout and extract all the years of embedded dirt and bacteria that penetrated into the tile and grout.

While cleaning I moved a few pieces of furniture back and forth to make sure I cleaned as much tile and grout as I could, then set up air movers to speed dry the tile and grout before applying a solvent-based sealer to help my client keep the tile clean in-between professional cleanings.
