Whether we’re tackling the grime in a busy café or refreshing tiles in a showroom, we always adapt to what your floor needs. It’s this attention to detail that sets us apart.

  • Test patches and assessments before any job
  • Specialist knowledge of porcelain tile finishes
  • Cleaning plans matched to tile type and traffic level

PRECISION

Cleaning Methods That Respect Your Floor

Porcelain tiles are tough — but not invincible. That’s why we use carefully selected techniques for every job. From rotary scrubbing and steam-assisted cleaning to hot water extraction, we tailor each step to the tile’s finish and the level of soil.

Grout lines get special attention, too. We apply pH-specific cleaning agents to break down buildup safely, followed by thorough rinsing to leave a clean, neutral surface. And if the grout is vulnerable, we can seal it for added defence.

  • Grout-safe chemicals for deep cleaning
  • No harsh abrasives or residue left behind
  • Rotary equipment for even, thorough results
  • Post-clean protection available for grout lines
  • All work is tested first to ensure the safety

DURABILITY

Protecting Floors with Smarter Sealing Options

A clean floor is only half the job — keeping it clean is just as important. After we deep clean your porcelain tiles, we often recommend sealing, especially for unglazed types that absorb dirt more easily.

For commercial spaces that see a lot of footfall, we offer a PU sealing system from Dr. Schutz. It adds a protective layer that stands up to moisture, chemicals, and everyday wear — all while helping reduce cleaning time and costs down the line.

  • PU Sealer for high-traffic, demanding areas
  • Impregnators for subtle, breathable protection
  • Recommended for cafés, shops, and gyms
  • Reduces staining and soil build-up
  • Improves floor longevity with minimal upkeep

We had a great experience with Silver Lining Floor Care Company. First of all, they came to see me the same day I contacted them to show how the floor sanding would work and also apply a couple of coloured varnishes to appreciate what the final effect would look like. Once selected, they have shared the most professional quote I have seen in my life, with a clear Video explanation that takes you through the quote line by line. Additionally, they have great customer care - they are always available over the phone, whatsapp and email to really address any query you have. Cherry on the cake, they have delivered a very good job, respecting their promise. I would highly recommend.

Super results, pleasant and professional workers, constructive and flexible process. Big thank you to the team! Got the floor of one room, which was very worn and damaged, sanded down, re-stained and lacquered. Particular challenge was trying to match the rest of the flat's flooring, which I didn't know what products had been used on it. The team was super engaged in trying to work this problem, and the results were fantastic.

Silver Lining Floor Care did an outstanding job sanding and oiling the floors in my new flat. They successfully removed all stains and scratches, leaving the floor looking brand new. The team was very professional throughout the process, providing a detailed quote before starting and offering various options to suit my needs. Their expertise and attention to detail really stood out. I couldn’t be happier with the results, and I feel like I got great value for money. If you're looking for reliable, high-quality floor care, I highly recommend Silver Lining Floor Care!

Johnny and the team were very professional. We had lots of calls to discuss reconditioning our Reclamed Burmese teak parquet floor. We planned the dates for when we went away on holiday. His team were trustworthy reliable with great communication! when we came back from holiday the floor was completed and the treatment is holding up well two months later, much better than the original treatment which was a hard wax oil that only lasted 2 years! it was applied by general builders with no expertise in wood floor treatments. This time we went with a lacquer with hardener, we have a big Labrador dog and we still have no visible scratches on the surface and we look forward to seeing how it holds up with the test of time!

Silver Lining Floor Care conducted some Victorian Tile restoration and cleaning for me. A day after the initial visit some white residue came to the surface due to moisture in the air. On calling Silver Lining Floor Care to tell them this they returned and rectified immediately. An excellent job and will be using again. I can recommend.

Victorian Tiles Restoration, London, Kensigton

Silver Lining Floor Care refinished our existing floorbaords and installed new engineered oak in the remainder of our flat. They are an extremely professional and efficient business to work with. Johnny was very responsive throughout the scoping and quoting process and recommended an engineered oak floorboard that was both higher quality and cheaper than the boards I'd been looking at. Peter first leveled our floors before installing the new boards to ensure a very professional fit. He was easy to communicate with and sent photos throughout the installation as we were not around to see it in person. We have worked with lots of contractors for the renovation of our flat and been dismayed at how so many companies leave the property in a total mess. Silver Lining Floor Care have been the only company to take good care of the property and leave it in perfect condition. Very happy with the finished product and would definitely recommend them.

Johnny, Peter and Milosz did a great job on our floors. The quote was provided promptly and we were kept informed at all times of appointments and next steps. When the carpet was taken up prior to work, this showed that some floorboards needed to be repaired. Milosz did a very thorough job in repairing these, removing gaps, strengthening the existing boards and taking a great deal of care to make the floor look as good as possible. I would recommend Silver Lining Floor Care.

Wood Floor Sanding & Fishing with Raw Wood Effect Lacquer

We had new doors on the back of the house which meant we needed the floor lifted and taken to a new border point. Small job but as time consuming as a new floor. Team were amazing and cut out the old boards and put in the new ones so everything fitted flush with a great trim border they made out of a spare board. Really nice people, clean and tidy and would highly recommend.

Commercial Porcelain Tile Cleaning Services in London

We provide porcelain tile cleaning services across London, with a focus on busy commercial spaces like restaurants, gyms, offices, and retail environments. Our team understands how glazed and unglazed porcelain tiles behave under heavy use — and we’ve built our process around getting them looking fresh again without damaging their finish.

Glazed vs Unglazed Porcelain — Why It Matters

Glazed tiles are often easier to clean, but they can develop a film over time that dulls their look. Unglazed tiles, on the other hand, are more porous and hold onto dirt — especially in high-traffic areas. We assess your porcelain floor type during the survey so we can choose the safest and most effective cleaning method.

Tile and Grout Cleaning Done Properly

We don’t just clean the surface. Our tile and grout cleaning tackles deep-set grime using rotary machines and carefully chosen products that break down soil without harming the tiles or grout. We also apply a grout sealer afterwards to help protect the cleaned joints from absorbing new dirt too quickly.

Sealing Porcelain Tiles for Better Durability

Once your floor is clean, we can apply a sealer that helps preserve the results. For demanding commercial spaces, we often recommend the Dr. Schutz PU Sealer. It creates a hard-wearing surface that stands up to spills, chemicals, and heavy foot traffic — perfect for busy areas that need a hygienic and low-maintenance finish.

Experience That Reaches Beyond Porcelain

What sets us apart isn’t just our tile knowledge — it’s the way we apply expertise from other surfaces, too. Our background in wood floor restoration, stone floor cleaning and polishing, vinyl and resin floor cleaning and other types of hard flooring means we approach every job with a broader understanding of what works long-term.

We also help businesses keep their entire space spotless through our commercial services.

We recently completed a domestic porcelain floor sealing project using PU Sealer that shows just how versatile and effective our system is — even in a home setting.

FAQs

What’s the best way to clean commercial porcelain tiles?

For busy commercial spaces, the most effective method is a deep clean using rotary machines, heat-assisted extraction, and grout-specific solutions. We adapt our process depending on whether your tiles are glazed or unglazed to make sure the finish is protected and the results last.

Do all porcelain tiles need to be sealed?

Not always. Glazed porcelain usually doesn’t need sealing, but unglazed tiles are more absorbent and benefit greatly from added protection. In high-traffic areas, we often recommend a PU Sealer to help reduce staining and make ongoing cleaning much easier.

Can you get rid of dirt in the grout lines?

Yes, that’s a big part of what we do. Grout naturally traps grime, especially in commercial kitchens and bathrooms. We use specialist products to lift out embedded dirt, followed by a sealer to help keep it clean for longer. We don’t offer grout colouring — just proper cleaning and protection.

Are your methods safe for polished or textured porcelain?

Absolutely. We always test a small area first to ensure compatibility, and we adjust our cleaning pressure, tools, and products depending on the finish. Whether your tiles are polished, matt, structured, or anti-slip, we’ve got a safe and proven method that works.

Do you offer maintenance plans for businesses?

We do. If you’re managing a commercial space, regular deep cleaning can save you money in the long run by keeping your floors in top shape. We offer flexible maintenance plans that work around your business hours — perfect for restaurants, gyms, and retail sites.

How long does it take for the floor to dry?

After cleaning, porcelain floors usually dry within a couple of hours. If we apply PU Sealer, we’ll let you know the curing time — generally around 8 to 12 hours depending on airflow and temperature.

Can you clean porcelain tiles in food prep or kitchen areas?

Yes — and we do it often. We use food-safe, low-odour, and non-toxic cleaning products that are suitable for kitchens, food counters, and restaurant floors. Our methods meet hygiene standards and leave no harmful residue behind.
