Watch as Better Homes and Gardens shows you how to clean grout! If house cleaning isn't one of your favorite activities, this cleaning tip makes it a bit easier. Before cleaning, prep the tile flooring by wiping it down with a wet cloth. As a natural cleaning solution, mix 2 parts baking soda and 1 part water, applying the paste to the grout with a grout brush. Use an old electric toothbrush for even better cleaning power. Rinse with water when you're finished. For a better clean, replace the water with vinegar. Hydrogen peroxide is a less acidic option. Follow directions on commercial cleaning products, but with either cleaning method, allow the grout to dry for 24 hours before using a sealer to preserve the clean. These cleaning methods keep your home looking fresh and your grout repair less frequent!
