Lazy now floor is perma-dirty

I could give all the excuses for laziness, but let's not go there.

Kitchen floor has cheapo tiles from B&Q, down about 4 years. I haven't mopped as often as I should and now they have ingrained dirt. I'm nearly 60 (and work more hours than that weekly) so can't get down on my hands and knees and scrub.

Suggestions?

Pay for a cleaner/ cleaning company to come and do a deep clean. If you can afford it continue to pay for a weekly or fortnightly cleaner, if not do your best to stay on top of mopping once it’s done and maybe budget for an annual professional clean.

Steam it if you haven't already

I would try a bleach solution and a long handled scrubbing brush.

Spray it with kitchen cleaner leave it for 10 minutes then use your mop or a long handled scrubbing brush it should get them clean you might need another rinse,

I meant to add or get a cleaner in to do a deep clean. Or a carpet cleaning company the ones I see advertised on Facebook also do hard floors and tiles.
