Can I clean sand from grout myself?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storm last week, I noticed a layer of fine sand and grit settling on the grout lines in my central cleaning system. It’s not a huge mess, but it definitely looks unsightly. Given that this is our first winter here since moving into our new apartment, I’m wondering if it’s something I can clean myself or if I need to call in a professional?

Cleaning sand from grout lines after a dust storm can be manageable for you to handle yourself. However, the effectiveness of your cleaning efforts might vary based on how extensive the contamination is and what tools you have at hand.
Firstly, it's crucial to understand that while regular maintenance of central cleaning systems in Dubai/UAE should comply with local building codes and regulations, there’s no specific UAE law mandating a particular frequency for such tasks. Nonetheless, maintaining cleanliness not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also ensures better air quality within your home. To start, you'll need some basic tools like a soft brush or vacuum cleaner attachment to gently remove loose sand from the grout lines. Be cautious with abrasive materials that could damage the grout. For tougher stains or larger quantities of sand, a damp cloth and mild detergent might be necessary. Make sure to dry the area thoroughly afterward to prevent any moisture-related issues. If you find that the task is more extensive than anticipated or if the cleaning doesn’t yield satisfactory results, it's wise to consider calling in professionals for a thorough inspection and cleaning. Professional services can ensure that all areas are properly cleaned without causing damage to your system. Remember, regular maintenance checks by professionals can prevent larger issues down the line, especially given the harsh environmental conditions experienced during dust storms in Dubai/UAE.
