What should I use for new porcelain floor

We are at the tail end of a renovation project and the kitchen floor has been down for about a month. Workers with dirty boots have been stomping all over it but now that my kitchen is pretty much done and the work is tapering off I really want to give it a good clean.

The tile is porcelain and the grout was never sealed (I'm thinking after I get this good and clean I should seal it, yes?). One cleaner I picked up said not to use on unsealed grout as it may discolor it so I want to make sure to use the right product.

What cleaner do you recommend and how. If I need to get on my hands and knees for this initial cleaning then I'll do it. Should I then seal the grout and which product do you recommend? Going forward I was thinking of using a SH mop or Bona mop with water or Method cleaner or similar. I find cleaning a challenge and don't have alot of knowledge on the "hows" but really want to take care of this new kitchen and keep it looking good.

Thanks for any help.
