Grout Tile Cleaners questions, answered by experts

Slate floors don’t need much maintenance, but they should be sealed once per year. Otherwise, they can absorb liquids and moisture, which may weaken them and lead to stains. It’s also best to sweep slate floors daily, mop with a pH-neutral floor cleaner weekly, clean up any spills as quickly as possible, and use rugs or mats in high-traffic areas.

You can test whether your grout needs to be sealed with a water droplet test. If water beads up on the grout’s surface, it’s likely been sealed (or might not need to be). On the other hand, if the water gets absorbed or causes the grout to darken, then it’s time for a fresh grout sealing.

The first step to resealing is a thorough steam cleaning of the tile and grout. You can do this by renting a tile and grout cleaner for $80 a day. Once you’re done cleaning the floor, it’ll cost $30 to $40 per quart for sealant. Or, you can hire a pro who will charge $1 to $2 per square foot for cleaning and resealing services.

With a thorough cleaning, the smell of pet pee may dissipate within about 15 minutes, although in many cases, it may take several days to stop smelling after cleaning up the stain. If you leave a urine spot untreated, it may take up to five years to stop smelling on its own.

You shouldn’t add new grout over grout that’s broken, cracked, or crumbling. If you do, the new layer might not adhere properly to the old one, and you could end up with even more grout issues. Plus, if you don’t remove the damaged grout, you’ll be ignoring whatever underlying problem initially caused the grout to crack, which could lead to more serious issues down the line.
