The beauty, elegance and durability of ceramic tile has made it a favorite flooring choice for centuries, but these are not the only reasons for its popularity.  Tile is surprisingly easy to maintain, and by using simple household products, you can keep your ceramic tile floors looking like new for years.

As with all flooring, the best care is regular care.  Sweep or vacuum your ceramic tile floors at least once a week, more often if it gets regular use.  Dust and lint can evolve into grime if they are not promptly removed, especially in areas where there is moisture.

Since ceramic tile is often used in “wet” areas of the home, it is likely that it will be subject to different spills and spots.  Simple washing or mopping with hot water and a mild household detergent should wipe away anything that finds its way to your ceramic floors.  The hot water helps loosen any dirt that collects in the spill, and the detergent lifts any oily substance on the floor.  If a “once-over” is not enough to remove all of the spill, try a second pass over the floor with a sponge or mop.  If the spill remains stubborn, you can use a soft brush or synthetic scouring pad to loosen the spot, but do not use steel wool or a metal brush, as these may scratch the surface of the tiles.

After washing a ceramic tile floor, be sure to thoroughly rinse the floor with clean water.  This will remove any detergent residue from setting and attracting more dirt to your floor.

Occasionally, a tough stain will appear on a ceramic tile floor, especially floors with unglazed tiles, but these stains can also be easily removed sometimes with professional help from American Dream Carpet Cleaning.  If you are tired of scrubbing and mopping to never ever get the floor any cleaner, just give us a call, we will surprise you with the extensive capabilities of American Dream Carpet Cleaning equipment and our professional crews.

Even in the tidiest homes, mildew frequently finds its way, especially in bathrooms, spa areas and pool decks.  Some mildew, especially here on the West Coast of Florida is very hard to get rid of. We have special procedures and cleaners that are used to clean the tile and grout in your home or business to rid it of all of the mildew and the unsightly stains it leaves.

Even rust stains can be easily removed from ceramic tile.

The incidence of difficult stains on ceramic tiles is rare; its durability and imperviousness to stains is one of its great appeals, and regular cleaning will eliminate most of the stains on your floor.  But should your tile or grout become a tougher cleaning problem, Call American Dream Carpet Cleaning to bring new life to your floor!.

Tile & Grout

Tile & Grout

Durable and versatile, tile is becoming more and more popular in residential and commercial settings.  Like carpet and other flooring,Tile and Grout Cleaning by American Dream tile needs professional cleaning from time to time.

Tiny pores in tile and grout allow dirt and other contaminates to become trapped below the surface, where they can’t be removed with regular mopping.  The dirt continues to build up inside the pores, leaving tile and grout looking dark, dirty, and discolored.

This dirty build-up also is an excellent breeding ground for bacteria, mold and mildew.   Hand scrubbing with harsh cleaners can be ineffective, not to mention, time consuming and extremely labor intensive.

Don’t spend your valuable  time and energy trying to clean your tile and grout.  Instead, call the professionals at American Dream Carpet Cleaning to do the dirty work for you.   We have equipment and commercial strength cleaning agents specifically designed to handle the tough jobs.  Our turbo tile cleaning tool delivers the cleaning agents deep into the tile and grout pores to break apart dirt and contaminates.  Then our powerful truck mounted cleaning plant extracts all of that unwanted dirt, bacteria and water, leaving your tile and grout clean and beautiful once again and with no mess to you.

So the next time your tile floors, walls, shower stalls and counter tops start looking dull and dingy, don’t waste precious time on your hands and knees.  Instead, call American Dream Carpet Cleaning to do the job for you.  Then YOUR attention can be spent on the people and things that are most important to you.

What Our Customers Say…

I have been using American Dream for over 20 years and never been disappointed with the service. They have all the latest cleaning techniques to do any type of job and have the knowledge for it. If anyone can get the job done, it is American Dream.
Cathy, St.Petersburg

Very pleased with the professionalism and service I received. I had heavily soiled carpet and was really worried about having to replace it, which can be expensive, so I took a gamble with having it cleaned by a service. Fran was very helpful and reassuring that they could help, and Bernie the technician was very kind and worked hard to successfully tackle the matter at hand. My carpet went from irreplaceable to 'gently used'. Very appreciative from the beginning call to schedule service, till the end of service! Thank you for the prompt timing as well!
Rochelle B., St. Petersburg, Fl

We have used American Dream for over 20 years and are truly a very satisfied customer. They are a family run business, and very professional. They have always done our carpets, but most recently cleaned our couch. Honestly, it looks brand new and we decided to keep it a few years longer. If you want the best cleaning and customer service possible, you must call \"AMERICAN DREAM\".
