GROUT CLEANING AND COLOURING IN SALFORD QUAYS
Quality Tile Care • 20 September 2018
Commercial Grout Restoration in Salford Quays, Manchester, M5
We received an enquiry about Discoloured and Dirty Grout restoration in one of the businesses toilets in Salford Quays. Salford Quays is an area of Salford
, Greater Manchester
, near the end of the Manchester Ship Canal. Previously the site of Manchester Docks, it became one of the first and largest urban regeneration projects in the United Kingdom following the closure of the dockyards in 1982.
When quoting the job it turned out 20 toilets and kitchens needed grout restoration in their office houses. We recommended them Grout Cleaning and Re-Colouring, because grout was around 15 years old and chance of getting it to look like new was low.
After completing the tester they were happy with what they saw and we got booked in. Also our quote to restore the grout was thousands cheaper and less time consuming then replacing the tiles and grout in all toilets and kitchens.When quoting the job it turned out 20 toilets and kitchens needed grout restoration in their office houses.

Ceramic Tiles and Grout Cleaning
As there were 20 rooms with walls and floor to clean & re-colour we had to work with couple of rooms at a time to make sure we get it all done in time and won’t interrupt the normal operation in offices. For cleaning the grout we used a grout colouring pre-treat cleaner which gets the job done in areas where most cleaners won’t, also helps the colourant to stick on better.
We applied the cleaner on grout lines/tiles and left it to dwell for about 5-10 minutes. When the product had soften the ingrained dirt, we scrubbed the grout lines with specially designed grout brushes which was followed by cleaning the tiles with strong Scrubbing Pad fitted to our rotary machine. After scrubbing tiles and grout we rinsed and removed all the soiled water and chemicals with Wet vacuum. We repeated the rinsing process several times to make sure all chemicals are off the floor.
We used same cleaning techniques on the wall as well but walls took a lot longer time to complete as there were much smaller tiles which equals lots more grout lines and work. After all cleaning was finished we turned on our industrial fans and left the floor to dry till the next day.
Grout Colouring and Sealing
For colouring the Grout lines we used epoxy based Grout Colourant, it's brilliant product as it rejuvenates and also seals the grout. For floors we used Natural grey colour and for walls Brilliant White colour. It's simple application but it’s very time consuming when doing such big rooms. Fist we applied the Colourant on grout lines with personalised toothbrushes as we cut them to fit grout. This way we manage less waste, although still quite a bit colourant gets on tiles which has to be wiped off. All areas had 2-3 generous coats of the grout colorant. Overall it took us 2 weeks to complete all the work but I think you can’t argue that all toilets and kitchens look rejuvenated and fresh again.
