Tile and grout cleaning for Nickerson kitchens, baths and entries

Grout is porous, and it sits lower than the tile. Every mopping pushes dirty water into those lines, so they darken a little at a time until the floor looks dirty even when it is clean.

We clean the tile and dig the soil out of the grout lines, then dry the floor with air movers. Kitchens around the island, bathroom floors, entryways and mudrooms see the biggest change.

We will tell you honestly what cleaning can do for your floor. Old, stained or cracked grout may not come back to new, and we say so before we start. If your grout would hold up better sealed, we will talk it through with you.

  • Multi-step cleaning for built-up grime
  • Grout lines and textured tile

Why tile and grout cleaning matters in Nickerson

Kitchen and bath tile in older homes like many in Nickerson can hold decades of grime in the grout. Mopping just moves dirt around. We scrub and extract the grout lines and rinse the tile so the real color shows again.

In late May 2019, flooding left inches of standing water downtown, washed out streets and had residents pumping water out of their basements. Nickerson sits on the Arkansas River, and the river valley's sandy ground tracks into homes all year. Wheat harvest in June and July adds chaff and field dust.

Nickerson has some of the oldest housing in the area. Census estimates show about half of its homes were built before 1940, and most are single-family houses. We clean homes and businesses across Nickerson. Nickerson is about 12 miles northwest of Hutchinson.

About Nickerson, Kansas

Nickerson was laid out in 1872, when the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway reached the spot, and it was named for Thomas Nickerson, the railroad's president. The first post office ran out of a sod house starting in 1873. A wooden bridge crossed the Arkansas River by 1879, and Nickerson was incorporated that June.

In 1899 the Legislature created Reno County High School here, and Nickerson College also operated in town. By 1912 Nickerson was the second largest town in Reno County, with mills, grain elevators, two banks and an opera house. Houses in Nickerson were used for scenes in the 1955 film Picnic.
