Re: Cleaning Grout

One option is to remove the grout and reapply. Not easy but haven't heard too many choices to clean grout.

We just bought a house and I am having Stanley Steemer come in and clean the carpets and the tiles. I will let you know how it comes out when and if we ever close on this house. The sellers seem to be jerking us around abit. Chat Icon

Re: Cleaning Grout

This is what I found works:

Pour Soft scrub with bleach on the grout and let it sit for a few minutes. Scrub with a grout brush. Spray with water (I use a spray bottle filled with water) and wipe with a sponge. Repeat if necessary.

I then use the magic eraser for touch-ups in between cleanings.
