Clean Your Grout Properly to Avoid a Health Violation

If you own a business, whether it’s a restaurant or hotel, you will have to go through and pass a health inspection in order to keep the business open and running. If the health inspector finds your business having too many health violations, you could be temporarily shut down, fined, lose business, or closed for good.

One thing business owners and managers need to pay attention to keeping clean for an inspection (and all year round) is the flooring – the tiles and grout lines must be cleaned. A dirty floor is a big “no-no.” A dirty floor can harbor lots of bacteria and other bad germs. The floor is just as important as the counters, tables, food stations, etc.

In a restaurant, hotel, amusement park, public space, spills happen, dirt builds up and foot traffic drags in a lot of dirt and grime. Grease, food particles, and other grime can attract flies, rats, and other creates and can create a big health hazard. If there are health hazards in your establishment, you can compromise the health of your guests and employees.

To get rid of days, weeks, months of build up on your floors, you need a quality tile and grout cleaner followed up with a grout sealer. Many cleaners out there cannot truly clean grout, or they are harsh on you grout. You want a grout cleaner that is ph-balanced and is strong enough to lift stains from porous grout.

Grout Shield’s grout cleaners thoroughly clean grout and get your grout looking like new again. The Grout Shield Grout & Tile Deep Cleaner cleans and lifts deep stains out of the grout’s pores. To use this product, mix 1 ounce of the cleaner with 8 ounces of warm water. Then, brush the cleaner into the grout. Leave the mixture to sit into the grout lines for a few minutes. Lastly, wipe away the cleaner with a sponge.

To prevent future deep stains and discoloration, you’ll need to follow this cleaning with a grout sealing product like Grout Shield Color Sealer and Grout Shield Clear Sealer .  The color sealer can help brighten or change the color, especially if the grout is too badly stained. The clear sealer is a good option if you don’t want to change the grout color or it doesn’t need a color refresh. These grout sealers are easy to use and apply.
