Cleaning made easy: Transform your floor tile grout with this $39 Kmart find!

There's nothing quite like the satisfaction of a sparkling clean home.

But when it comes to cleaning grout, it can often feel like an uphill battle.

Fortunately, a homeowner has recently shared a simple yet effective cleaning technique that has taken the internet by storm.



Sarah Leenheers posted a video on her social media demonstrating how she transformed her floor tiles using a popular product from Bunnings and a handy gadget from Kmart.

The video has since gone viral, with over 360,000 views and countless comments praising the effectiveness of her method.

In the video, Sarah sprayed Long Life Grout Cleaner ($10.99), available from Bunnings, directly onto the grout of her floor tiles.

She then used Kmart's $39 Long Handled Scrubbing Brush to scrub the grout, revealing a dramatic transformation.

'If you have tiles, you need this scrubber from Kmart!' she exclaimed in the video.

The Kmart scrubber comes with three different brush attachments, a rechargeable battery, and an 85cm handle. It also boasts a one-hour run time, making it a convenient tool for tackling larger cleaning tasks.



The homeowner went on to share that she had previously been quoted hundreds of dollars to clean her floors professionally.

However, with her newfound method, she managed to achieve the same results for a fraction of the cost.

'I'm shocked! Kmart, love your work!' she added.

'We moved into our new house, and the floors needed some tender loving care (TLC). I was quoted over $600, but I did it for about $40!’

‘If you have tiles, you NEED this.'



While the Kmart scrubber was the star of the show, many viewers pointed out that the Long Life Grout Cleaner from Bunnings was the unsung hero of the transformation.

'That grout cleaner is fantastic—works with a toothbrush,' said one viewer.

Another suggested a handy tip: 'Put the stuff in an empty tomato sauce bottle—game changer.'

A third viewer added: 'That grout cleaner is awesome, been using it for ages, and you don't need any fancy tools to scrub with because it works so well.'
