No matter how often you mop your tile floors (whether they’re in the kitchen, in the bathroom, or throughout the house), there comes a time when the grout needs to be refreshed.
It’s not something I’d ever thought much about until one day when I realized that no matter how often I cleaned the floors, they didn’t seem as clean as I thought they should!
That’s when I went on a hunt for the best homemade grout cleaner. I’ve done my fair share of using vinegar to clean around our house so cleaning grout with vinegar made a lot of sense to me! If it’s worked on other things in my house, why not the tile grout?
To get started, you just need to grab the baking soda and vinegar out of the cabinet!

You’ll also need some water, a bowl, and perhaps an old toothbrush or other scrub brush (for any really stubborn areas of grout).
If you find that you’re out of baking soda or vinegar, add it to the shopping list and keep them both stocked! They’ll work wonders around your house! (You can really clean almost anything with baking soda and vinegar!)
If you’re ready to learn how to clean grout with vinegar and baking soda, there is one simple thing to remember. It’s the key to success!
It’s all about making a paste!
The paste is the key to making this an easier cleaning job! By easier, I mean less elbow grease and scrubbing. If you have miles of dirty looking tile in your house (like I do in my kitchen and laundry room), you will want to minimize scrubbing as much as you can!
That’s the secret. It’s all in the paste.
Follow these easy steps to success on your tile floors and even tile in the bathroom shower or tub area too!

It’s really that easy!
Now, I won’t lie and say you’ll never do any more grout scrubbing. That’s just not the truth. If you have some really stubborn areas, you might find that scrubbing really helps.
If you’re like me, you might not be able to resist doing just a bit of scrubbing! Old habits die hard, I guess!
But for the most part, I haven’t had to scrub the grout if I make a thick paste with the baking soda and vinegar! The last time I did this, I even knew some cleaning was happening because the paste turned a little bit darker as I let it sit. It started turning gray so I knew something good had to be happening!
Cleaning tile floors with vinegar and baking soda is my secret to keeping them looking bright and fresh! It works well in the bathroom if you have tile around your tub or in your shower.
When I’m doing bathroom tile, I do find that my paste can be a little bit thinner than when I do the floors. I think the bathroom grout might not get as much dirt ground in. So don’t be afraid to play around with the mixture!
It’s easy to figure what works best for your floors with just a bit of experimenting!
