Our Grout Cleaning Techs Completed a Successful Restoration on This Bathroom Floor in Marietta
August 14, 2024
A homeowner in Marietta was tired of getting subpar results while cleaning her bathroom floor. No matter how she looked at it, the light brown grout made the floor look unhygienic, and regular cleaners did nothing to solve the problem. Also, wear and tear had altered the tiles to the point that the surface looked worn-down and mildly lumpy.It was time to get a professional's opinion. The homeowner went online looking for a reliable company nearby and found the perfect option almost immediately. The specialists at Sir Grout Atlanta had ample experience restoring bathroom surfaces and the results in our picture gallery went above and beyond anything she'd expected. She read as much as she could about our grout cleaning service in Marietta before heading to our online scheduler to request an in-home evaluation.
On the appointed date, our experts visited her house to look at the bathroom floor. The homeowner recognized Sir Grout's logo on the vehicle and greeted our crew right away. Once inside the bathroom area, our techs noticed all the issues the client had just described. The ceramic surface looked neglected and the yellowed grout overshadowed the colors on the tiles. The sealant had likely faded long ago, so the grout had absorbed a lot of grime while being exposed to multiple chemical-based cleaners.
While there's no shortage of cleaners available these days, most of them have harmful ingredients that only cause more problems down the line. With this in mind, our specialists tried their own products on the grout and, after proving its effectiveness, offered their restoration services. The homeowner thanked them for their offer and asked them to come later that week.
So, our techs returned a few days later with the necessary equipment to work on the floor. First, they cleaned the entire surface with a permeating formula, buffing the ceramic tiles with a high-speed scrubber to remove all the residue.
For the next step, they made sure that the floor was stain-free before they started working on the grout. They applied Sir Grout's signature ColorSeal on all the grout lines and recolored them to match the white tiles on the floor. This acrylic-based sealant doesn't stop at giving grout surfaces a makeover. Its main benefit is preventing new stains for a long time, even when it comes to high-traffic surfaces. It repels water, soap, cosmetic residue, mold, grime, and more, so it's the ideal solution for any part of the house.
Our crew removed the residue and buffed the floor to show off its natural shine. With this final touch, they made the surface look as good as new. The entire bathroom felt more inviting, and the contrast between the white and black tiles was particularly striking. Needless to say, the homeowner was thrilled and she couldn't wait to show the result to her relatives. After thanking our crew, she promised to tell more people in Marietta about our grout cleaning services.
While putting away their equipment, our experts shared some useful recommendations with the client. To avoid discoloration on tile and grout surfaces, they recommended using only pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product removes common stains easily and in little time, leaving your floors looking gorgeous for much longer. It doesn't affect the sealant's protection and its ingredients don't corrode the tiles; this is what sets neutral cleaners apart from other solutions on the market. If you have a busy household, our cleaner is also the best way to protect people and pets because it doesn't contaminate your living spaces with toxic fumes each time you use it.
Other recommendations were to keep the area properly ventilated and to avoid using steel wools and other abrasive tools. Both tips are important to prevent the worst effects of moisture buildup. The right tools ensure that you don't leave residue behind, which is why we always recommend using a mop, a towel, or a terry cloth. Meanwhile, the circulation of fresh air stops the spread of mold and mildew in damp areas.
