for cleaning greese and grime from tiles and surfaces use stong solution of soda crystal, leave it for few min. and then clean it with damp clothe, surface will come out shining.

Vixy - I bought a little scraper tool from cleaneeze, its for scraping paint of windows etc...so wont scratch the tiles, has a double sided blade in it and it worked wonders scrape it off and you can feel the smoothness in the tile then dry brush off the dust and then wipe down. cheers

I live in the US. There is a product in the market called Shower Fresh. I spray it on my glass shower doors, tiles, entire tub/shower space, after every shower. I rarely have to really scrub my shower or tub. I wonder if there is a way to make something at home that would work as well, but save money. Any suggestions?

Although I have improvised with an episode from K&A this one is a gem and worth the effort. Grimy ceramic tiles...biological washing up liquid (used for clothes - doesnt matter how cheap it is) mixed in warm water and a little bleach. Gloves, scrubbing brush, damp cloth and a window squeegee (I think thats how it's spelt). Have another bucket to hand filled with warm water, start scrubbing with the floor brush (the one like cinders used) scrubbing in circular motions, get a damp cloth to wipe the parts which you have scrubbed, then get your squeezgee and wipe away the excess water, get a clean mop soak in the bucket of warm water (prepared earlier) and wash over the part you have scrubbed and squeezgeed, leave to dry and admire your hard work!!!! And your arms will be lovely and toned too!!

hi,has anyone got any tips on how to remove plaster dust from teracotta kitchen floor tiles,it is on both the tiles and the grout and i have tried everything but no joy,the grout won't come clean??!!!Thanks.

To clean the mould from tiles I just use neat bleach and dip old tooth brush in and rub, or use an old nail brush.

This is actually a question. Could anybody tell me the best way to clean grout off newly placed tiles. I have been scrubbing & scrubbing and it just keeps coming back!

This is actually a question! I have white tiles in my bathroom, and I was wondering how you would clean and take out all the dirt from between the tiles. It is a rented house.

Save old toothbrushes they are great cleaning tools for around taps, shower head, on the grout between tiles etc, and you can use most cleaning products with them them!

using fabric conditioner watered down works very well when shining your taps and tiles it smells great too

After seeing Kim use a pumice stone to remove lime scale from a toilet bowl, I tried the same technique on the hard water buildup on the tiles in my shower. It worked!

If you have one of those express wet & dry floor mops that use replaceable wipes, don't buy the expensive refill packs, just buy thick cheap babywipes. They do just as good a job, are cheaper & smell nicer too!

Use vinegar and water to bring up the shine on dull bathroom tiles

Try using citric acid to clean mold and mildew off of your bathroom tiles. Much more environmentally friendly than bleach

if you've got a ceramic floor then my advice is don't clean it with soap or other cleaners - just use warm water and scrub it hard by hand. My floor got dull by me using too much product on it, but my new one is still looking great after 18 months.

Clean fungus from grouting between tiles with a paste of bicarbonate of soda and water. Leave for about an hour then remove with a damp cloth.
