I have quite a large area of ceramic tiles and I clean it with bleach and water and they come out great! I even have a medium brown colored grout and it doesnt affect the color at all. I do that sometimes, and also do all my floors with my Eureka Delux Steam Cleaner for floors, much quicker and easier . I have had it forever...great machine.
P.S. Alittle off topic, but would like to suggest for any other type flooring is Don Aslett Cleaning Secrets Floor Restore. Everytime I do them, people think they are brand new floors! I never tried it on the ceramic tiles, but since I have the wonderful chore of doing all my floors tomorrow, I will try a small spot and let you all know how it works.

85% water - 15% vinegar. If it has a high gloss shine to it, this is a ceramic floor tile. Buy heavy duty steel wool, wear gloves, and gently work each tile and grout line. Home Depot, Lowe's sell a tool called "grout saw". Its not a real saw, but has a rough edge that will remove grout. Gently rob over bad areas to remove top surface of grout, then use water and vinegar.
Thanks!

I use the Swiffer WetJet on my tile floors. It works great.

Hi,
If you properly care for your rugs on a daily or weekly basis, then you may not have to do a deep cleaning
for a year or more. At such time, you can either opt to have your rugs cleaned by a professional or do it yourself. It may not be as difficult or expensive as you might think to do it yourself. First, decide if your rug really needs cleaned by one of the following methods:
1. Grab on of the rugs corners and kick it while holding the edge. If a lot of dirt flies out, then it is time to clean it.
2. Rub the pile vigorously for 10 seconds. If your hand is dirty, it's time to clean.

Once you’ve decided to clean you rug, try to move it outside to your garage or driveway. Begin by vacuuming both sides of the rug thoroughly, in both the horizontal and vertical directions. Next, shampoo the rug with cold water and a mild detergent. Be sure to test a small area for colorfastness to make sure that you won’t damage the color. Use a soft brush with long bristles or a strong soft sponge to release the dirt and grime. Resist the urge to scrub too vigorously as you may damage the delicate pile. Next clean the fringe using a laundry
