1.00$ to clean, 0.65 to seal. When I do more than 1,000s/ft the price drops.
When it comes to sealing that much, use a pump up sprayer. Adjust so it just flows out and walk along the grout lines. When done sealing, use floor machine with a white pad to remove excess sealer from tile. 11,000 s/ft clean and seal, I'd charge around $6,500. Good luck and have a good one. Mark |

Took 1 1/2 hours to seal with a grout stick. A bit of a pita, but OK

It all depends on what sealer is being applied, we use a ketchup bottle that you would buy for a picnic. I feel that if you are going to apply a penetrating sealer, than you should saturate the grout so that it protects all the way through. I have used the rollers and find that it takes more time to wipe off the sealer that overlapped the tile, plus the time involved. |

We're going to try a grout stick which is a roller. They tell me it's all about controlling the flow

I could't imagine having 1000 s/f of tile in my house and paying $2000 to clean and seal! Not this cowboy!

Could somebody just clean my carpets!
