A Shower in Sarasota Got the Best Service from Our Grout Cleaning Experts

December 18, 2023

If you're a homeowner, we don't have to tell you about the many challenges of keeping a clean shower. Shower surfaces are durable and built to withstand constant exposure to water and the expected effects of wear and tear. This doesn't change the fact that shower maintenance can be an uphill battle, and homeowners often lack the tools to deal with embedded dirt.


A Sarasota resident was dealing with a dirty shower when she contacted Sir Grout Sarasota for an in-home evaluation. Traces of mold could be seen between the shower's white tiles, and the homeowner couldn't reach the stains despite trying different methods to remove them. The joints around the floor were also in poor condition, and that was the homeowner's primary source of concern when she reached out to our Sarasota grout cleaning specialists. She described her problem via phone call and was reassured when we agreed to visit her home the next day.

As promised, our techs went to her home the following morning. They inspected the shower from different angles and checked the grout to spot any signs of structural damage. The worst stains were on the floors and parts of the seams. The ceramic also concealed some stickiness left by soap scum and the water that seeped behind the tiles. Many of these problems take months to cause visible damage, but traditional cleaners are never the way to deal with them. Our experts listed the most common effects of harsh cleaners, from discoloration to embedded dirt on the grout pores. They also had the perfect solution for the client: a complete restoration involving the most thorough cleaning and grout sealing services. The client had no doubts about our expertise, so she happily scheduled a new appointment with our specialists.

Later that week, our crew returned to her house and set out their equipment around the shower area. They applied a surface-safe cleaner on all the walls and the floor to simplify the process. Our product's profound cleaning effect works against the worst stains caused by mold, mildew, and product residue, so our techs had no trouble once they started scrubbing off the dirt. They also steam-cleaned the shower to help preserve harder-to-reach areas against decay and moisture buildup.

The next step was to seal the grout. Our techs repaired the damaged portions on the joints, removing the old caulk and replacing it with the most durable epoxy grout. Then, they sealed the grout lines on the floor and the walls with our signature ColorSeal. This one-of-a-kind sealant provides long-term protection against water and other external elements. It covers the grout pores, so there is no more embedded dirt, saving homeowners many headaches. The homeowner wanted all parts of her shower to have the same pristine shade of white, so our techs recolored the grout to match the ceramic tiles.

The shower looked stunning, and the client was speechless when she first saw the result. After the initial shock, she thanked our techs for doing such exceptional work and admired the elegance that now permeated all parts of her bathroom. She also promised to tell her friends and relatives all about Sir Grout Sarasota.

Our techs ended the appointment with a series of recommendations that would come in handy for maintaining shower surfaces. As they explained, pH-neutral cleaners are the best way to improve efficiency and sidestep the worst effects of chemical cleaners. Products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner are far more reliable than most traditional cleaners, removing efflorescence, mold, and mildew much more effectively. Using our product, you won't need more than a towel or a squeegee to eliminate all the stains. In other words, homeowners won't have to mix multiple chemical-based products to get the stains loose on the surface, and shower surfaces won't have to be subjected to abrasive tools or excessive scrubbing. The client asked about toxic fumes, and our specialists confirmed that she could use our product as often as needed without risking the contamination of her living spaces.

Beyond that, our techs praised her home's ventilation system and reminded her to open the windows whenever needed to improve fresh air circulation. Shower corners and certain parts of a bathroom floor are more susceptible to mold when there's nothing to counter the dampness. Good indoor ventilation and timely cleaning sessions go a long way to stop moisture buildup before it has the chance to become a real problem.
