We only use cleaning products that are non-toxic, safe for children, pets, and the environment and every member of our team is trained in cleaning techniques for efficient and spotless results.

OUR PROCESS

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

• Q: Should I move my furniture?
• A: This is one of the top questions customers have when booking a tile and grout cleaning job with Brisbane Tile & Carpet Cleaners. Customers want to understand what kinds of furniture the cleaning technician will be able to move and what they can do to prepare their home before the technician arrives.
  All our technicians work alone. As such, we limit them to lift a maximum of 5 kg for their health and safety. Larger items will only be moved if they are on wheels or can be easily slid.  The following items will NOT be moved:
  • Electrical equipment such as TVs or computers
  • Furniture that is flush to the ground
  • Bookcases
  • Dining tables that require more than one person to move

• Q: Can Brisbane Tile & Carpet Cleaners protect my tiles?
• A: Yes! Porous tiles, such as slate and marble, need to be sealed to provide protection from dirt and impurities. Brisbane Tile & Carpet Cleaners offer a Sealing service where we apply a a premium penetrating, natural colour, water based and non-slip sealer to protect your tiles. Sealing also makes your tiles easier to clean as the sealant layer makes your tile and grout less porous. As such, the tiles will be better at repelling oil-based contaminants and preventing stains.

• Q: How often should tile and grout be cleaned?
• A: The length of time between a professional clean typically depends on the amount of traffic and the type of regular maintenance done. Generally speaking, tile and grout cleaning should be done every 3 to 4 years. Note that if your tile & grout has been sealed then it won’t need to be professionally cleaned as often.
