Is Professional Tile Cleaning Safe for Pets and Kids?
Yes — our cleaning process is completely safe for pets and children. We use pH-neutral, non-toxic cleaning solutions that are free of harsh chemicals. Our high-pressure extraction system uses hot water as the primary cleaning agent, and all dirty water is immediately extracted — nothing is left behind on your floors. You can walk on your floors the same day, and pets and kids can return to the area as soon as it's dry (usually 1–2 hours). We never use bleach or ammonia-based cleaners. Call Treasure Coast Tile & Grout at (772) 879-5722 for safe, effective cleaning.

When Can Pets and Kids Walk on Cleaned Floors?
After our cleaning process, floors are damp but chemical-free. Pets and kids can walk on them within 30–60 minutes. If sealing is applied, allow 2–4 hours for the sealer to cure before foot traffic. We'll give you exact timelines for your specific job.
Many Port Saint Lucie families with young children switch to professional cleaning specifically because it eliminates the chemical residue that store-bought cleaners leave behind. Call (772) 879-5722 to schedule.
