Something that will SCRUB the floor clean

When we moved into our new place a couple of months ago it was clear the Landlord had done the bare minimum cleaning, and we didn't have time to get a cleaner in to gut the place. One of my biggest problem spots is the kitchen floor. The tiles are shite and have uneven markings by design where crap seems to love collecting, and don't get me started on the bogging grout. I have a vileda spin mop and a steamer but until the decent "groundwork" clean is done all these do is move dirt around, no matter how many "Mop the foor, change the mop head" rounds I do.

I've gotten on my hands and knees and scrubbed some of the problem areas but my kitchen is huge and my back is old. I need something that will do all of the hard work for me while I swish it around. I've looked at the electric mops that promise to scrub to like-new but I always prefer real world recommendations to random, possibly fake/paid reviewers.

It doesn't even have to be electric, I just want something that works.

Try washing the floor with Ariel bio laundry detergent. Give it a wettish mop. Wait ten mins. Mop the area again.
It’s all I use now.
