I was very happy with the carpet cleaning service from Dr. Steemer. The pricing was fair, and the technician took the time to explain what needed to be done instead of rushing through the job. They arrived on time and did an excellent job on some difficult stains.
We recently hired Dr. Steemer for a deep clean of our Fort Lauderdale office, and the results were outstanding. The team was punctual, professional, and handled our workspace with great care.
Our dog had an accident on the mattress, and we were concerned about both the stain and the odor. Dr. Steemer was able to schedule us quickly and the technician did a very thorough cleaning.

Most homeowners in Broward and Miami-Dade Counties assume their tile floors are past saving. The grout has gone dark, the tiles have lost their original shine, and years of cleaning with store-bought products have made no visible difference. The reaction is usually to plan for replacement. This job is the reason that decision should wait. What looks like permanently stained grout is almost always deeply embedded soil, mold, mildew, and mineral deposits that have built up over time in the porous grout surface. Professional tile and grout cleaning does not just clean the surface. It extracts the buildup from inside the grout and restores the tile to a condition that looks, to most people, indistinguishable from new. The floors in this Broward and Miami-Dade home went from dark, stained, and dull to bright and spotless in a single visit. No replacement. No regrouting. Just the right process applied correctly.
Tile floors in Broward and Miami-Dade Counties face conditions that accelerate grout staining faster than most other climates in the country. High humidity is the primary driver. Grout is porous, and in a humid environment it absorbs moisture continuously. That moisture carries dissolved soil, cleaning product residue, and organic material into the grout structure where it settles, dries, and accumulates with every cleaning cycle. Standard mopping pushes dirty water across the surface and some of it goes directly into the grout, making the problem worse over time rather than better. Add coastal particulate, sand tracked in from outside, hard water mineral deposits from Broward and Miami-Dade’s water supply, and the mold and mildew that thrive in warm humid conditions, and the result is exactly what this floor looked like before Dr. Steemer arrived: dark grout lines, dull tile faces, and a floor that no longer responds to regular cleaning.
The job began with a full inspection of the tile and grout under proper lighting. Broward and Miami-Dade floors often show more staining depth than is visible under standard room light. Every grout line was assessed, heavily stained zones were identified, and the tile material was confirmed before any solution was applied. Different tile types require different chemistry and pressure settings.
A professional-grade alkaline cleaning solution was applied across the full tile and grout surface and allowed to dwell. This solution penetrates the porous grout structure and begins breaking down the embedded soil, mold, mildew, and mineral deposits from the inside. Heavily stained grout lines received additional targeted treatment before the extraction pass began.
Professional hot water extraction equipment was used to clean the grout lines and tile faces simultaneously. Heated water was delivered at controlled high pressure directly into the grout and immediately extracted along with loosened soil, mold, mildew, cleaning solution, and residue. This is the step that separates professional tile cleaning from any consumer-grade method. The heat and pressure combination reaches the full depth of the grout and extracts the contamination rather than redistributing it.
After the main extraction pass, every grout line and tile face was inspected. Any section that had not fully released was re-treated and extracted a second time. No area is signed off until the result meets Dr. Steemer’s standard across the full floor.
Once the grout was fully clean and dry, a professional grout sealer was applied to protect the restored surface. Sealing closes the porous grout structure and creates a barrier against future moisture absorption, staining, and mold growth. A sealed grout line stays cleaner for significantly longer than unsealed grout and is far easier to maintain between professional visits.
Before the cleaning, the grout lines were dark brown to black across the majority of the floor. The tile faces had a dull, flat appearance that made the entire room feel dingy regardless of lighting. The client had been mopping regularly but the floor never looked clean. After the cleaning, the grout lines were restored to their original light color across the full floor. The tile faces regained their original sheen and the overall floor appearance was transformed. The difference was visible from the doorway. This is the result that professional tile and grout cleaning delivers when the process is done correctly. The floor does not look better. It looks new.
If your floors match any of the following, professional extraction cleaning will make a visible difference: Broward and Miami-Dade’s humidity means grout deteriorates faster here than in most other parts of the country. Regular professional cleaning is maintenance, not a luxury.
Dr. Steemer uses professional hot water extraction on every tile and grout job. The cleaning goes into the grout, not just across it. The results visible in the before and after photos on this page are typical of what professional extraction cleaning delivers.

How long does professional tile and grout cleaning take?
Most standard residential floors are completed in 2 to 4 hours depending on the size of the area and the level of buildup. Heavily stained floors with deep grout contamination may require additional time for proper dwell and re-treatment passes.
Does professional cleaning damage tile or grout?
No. Dr. Steemer identifies the tile material before any solution is applied and adjusts chemistry and pressure accordingly. Natural stone, ceramic, and porcelain each require different handling. Professional equipment is calibrated for each material type, which is why it produces better results than rental machines without the risk of surface damage.
How long does grout sealing last in Broward and Miami-Dade Counties?
In Broward and Miami-Dade Counties's humid climate, grout sealing typically lasts 12 to 24 months with normal maintenance. High-traffic areas and wet zones such as bathrooms and kitchens benefit from resealing on the shorter end of that range. Dr. Steemer provides guidance on sealing intervals specific to each floor's use and location.
Can professional tile cleaning remove mold from grout?
Yes. Mold and mildew embedded in grout require a combination of the right pre-treatment chemistry and high-pressure hot water extraction to fully remove. Surface scrubbing and consumer products treat the visible surface only. Professional extraction removes the mold from inside the grout structure where it grows.
How much does tile and grout cleaning cost in Broward and Miami-Dade Counties?
Pricing depends on the floor area, tile type, grout condition, and whether sealing is included. Dr. Steemer provides free, no-obligation estimates. Call or text (954) 466-1700 to book your free quote.
