This Tile Shower in Canton Got Top-Notch Services from Our Grout Sealing Specialists

August 23, 2024

A homeowner in Canton couldn't stand the sight of dirt on her shower surfaces so she followed a diligent cleaning regime to keep the stains from spreading. That's partially why it was so upsetting for her to see the changes in the shower's grout. From the seams to parts of the floor, the grout lines had lost their pristine white color and mold was visible even from afar.


Around that time one of her relatives happened to talk about his own experience working with Sir Grout Hartford and the timing couldn't be better. The homeowner asked some questions about our grout sealing service in Canton before going online to continue her research. With each new piece of information, she was more convinced that our techs could be trusted with her shower so she immediately filled out the form to schedule an appointment with us.

At her request, our specialists visited her house the following day for an in-home evaluation, and she immediately recognized them by their uniforms and the logo on their vehicle. They inspected the entire shower and ruled out the chances of structural damage after checking the grout on the walls and the floor. Still, the porous surface was severely stained, with the stains being thicker around the drain and on the vertical seams.

Our techs offered to restore the entire shower area after testing their cleaner on some of the worst stains. They explained that regular cleaners would keep the client stuck in the same situation for weeks since they're more likely to adhere more external elements to the porous surface. The client had her suspicions about this for weeks, so she wasn't surprised by that assessment. She set the date for the restoration and our crew agreed to return in a few days.

On the scheduled date, they arrived at the house early in the day and didn't waste time before getting to work on the shower. After preparing the shower stall with masking tape, our specialists went over every surface, removing all the embedded dirt with the help of a permeating cleaner. They also vapor cleaned the shower area to eliminate all the mold on the grout.

Next, they used Sir Grout's flagship ColorSeal to revamp the grout, including the seams and the corner joints. Thanks to our acrylic-based sealant, grout surfaces can stay spotless in a damp environment, withstanding weeks of wear and tear. It wards off water, efflorescence, mold, mildew, and other external elements, so regular cleaning flows much more smoothly.

By the end of the process, the white grout made the entire shower look more elegant, drawing attention to the large ceramic tiles. The homeowner couldn't be happier with the result, and she promised to recommend our services to more people in the Canton area.

The homeowner was interested in getting additional tips for the maintenance of her shower, so our techs listed their recommendation at the end of their visit. First, they introduced pH-neutral cleaners as the ideal alternative to replace generic products for good. Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner always delivers because it has maximum cleaning power to remove the dirt more effectively. You can get rid of mold, soap scum, and any leftover stickiness in minutes and rest assured knowing that you won't be subjecting your bathroom spaces to harsh ingredients. More importantly, people and pets don't have to be exposed to chemical fumes inside their homes.
Our second recommendation was to use non-abrasive tools when deep cleaning hard surfaces. Steel wools and other sharp tools will likely scratch the tiles, especially if you need to scrub really hard. A towel or a terry cloth will make the work easier and the result much more satisfying.

Lastly, we recommended making sure that all bathroom surfaces are well ventilated throughout the day. Once the air becomes stale, it's easier for mold to spread around your hard surfaces, and this is a losing combination when you consider the water that usually sits around your shower floor.

Sir Grout Hartford brings high-quality hard surface restoration services to help you preserve the beauty of your bathroom surfaces. Our methods won't put a strain on your grout, and you'll enjoy having a spotless shower for much longer.
