Spanish Tile Cleaning in Ventura County
Professional Spanish Tile Cleaning for Homes and Businesses
Kelly Cleaning cleans Spanish and traditional tile in homes and businesses throughout Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties. That covers Saltillo, glazed terracotta, cement and Talavera, along with the sanded and unsanded grout set between them. We look at what the floor is made of before choosing a method, and once it is clean, color sealing can be added so the grout stays clean longer.
- Old SealerA worn or yellowed topical sealer traps dirt beneath it, so the floor looks dirty however often it is mopped.
- When to Color SealColor sealing is optional, and we recommend it most for high-traffic rooms and areas that see a lot of moisture.
- Same-Week EstimatesEstimates are free and usually booked within the same week, by phone at (805) 644-5308 or through a request online.
The National Park Service advises that cleaning historic ceramic tile floors start with the gentlest method possible, which may be plain warm water.

Other tile and stone
Saltillo and terracotta often share a house with ceramic tile, natural stone or vinyl, and each takes a different method.
Glazed ceramic and porcelain hold a spill on the surface instead of soaking it up, so tile and grout cleaning on those floors is mostly about the grout, with high-pressure steam pulling dirt, mildew and soap residue out of each line. Stone cleaning starts from the stone itself: acids mark marble, travertine is quick to etch, and honing and polishing take worn spots out of either one.
Vinyl tile cleaning depends on what the floor already carries. Luxury vinyl and rigid core are no-wax floors with a factory wear layer, so they are cleaned and never waxed, while VCT is a finished floor that gets stripped and recoated. Rubber-backed and ESD vinyl each need products that leave their slip resistance or static control alone, so no floor gets the method meant for another.

Spanish & Traditional Tile
Saltillo, Terracotta, Cement and Talavera
Spanish tile has a classic look, but grime works into its textured face and stays there. Saltillo is highly porous, so it needs a deep clean and a seal. Glazed terracotta holds up better against stains, though it still wants regular maintenance. Cement soaks up moisture and has to be sealed to keep from staining, and on colorful, decorative Talavera the dirt collects in the grout lines.
Those four do not take the same treatment. An unglazed, unsealed tile has nowhere to put a spill except inside itself, while a glaze holds the stain at the top where it lifts off. So on any Spanish floor, we start by working out what it is made of and pick the method from there.

Excellent service. Cannot be happier with their work. David Isaac came to do an assessment and was very professional and efficient. He sent me a quote on the same day.
The Kelly Cleaning team was outstanding! Our tenants with young children just vacated last week and it was left in rough condition! This wonderful team of 9 spent two days returning my property to near perfect condition.
Edgar and Randy did an amazing job! The carpet was in a rental and was a mess. We thought we would TRY cleaning it but didn't think it could come clean. They took their time and made it like new!

Questions About Spanish Tile Cleaning
Call the family-owned crew that has looked after Ventura County tile since 1978. The quote costs nothing, and the estimate is usually on the calendar within the week.
How much does Spanish tile cleaning cost?
We quote Spanish tile cleaning after we know the size and condition of the job, the quote costs nothing, and new Spanish tile cleaning customers who call (805) 644-5308 or send a quote request take 10% off.
How do you clean Saltillo without damaging it?
Saltillo is very porous, so it gets a deep clean and a seal, not a product that just sits on top. We check the tile first and choose the method to suit it.
What is the difference between sanded and unsanded grout?
Sanded grout carries sand so it holds its shape while it sets, and it fills the wider joints. Unsanded grout is finer and more flexible, so it goes in narrow lines and tight spaces. The two need different treatment, and our technicians are trained on both.
Should I color seal the grout on a Saltillo floor?
It is up to you. Once the clean is done, a color seal goes over the grout and shields the lines from new stains so they keep matching the floor for longer. We recommend it where foot traffic is heavy or the tile tends to stay damp.
Do you clean Spanish tile for businesses too?
Yes, both: homeowners and businesses in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties have used our Spanish tile cleaning since 1978, for anything from one room to a full commercial floor.
