The guest shower of a household in Venice began to look rundown and neglected despite the homeowner's constant attempts to counter the damage to the surface. She'd tried multiple cleaners and a handful of DIY tips but dropped them almost immediately after seeing the result on the ceramic. The shower's soft pink color was hidden under layers of soap scum, and the homeowner felt particularly powerless in her attempts to fix the cracks in the seams.

Shower and Bathtub Before and After a Tile Cleaning in Venice
The homeowner reviewed the problem with the rest of her family, and they all agreed that hiring a hard surface professional would save her a lot of stress. She started her search online and came across our tile cleaning service in Venice soon after. From other people's reviews and the results in our picture gallery, Sir Grout Sarasota had the skills and resources to help her with her shower, so she filled out the form to get in touch with our specialists.

At her convenience, our crew visited her house a couple of days later for an in-home evaluation. Just minutes into the inspection, they spotted a few issues, like the loose grout all around the bathtub and the large stains marring the ceramic. There were traces of efflorescence and sediments that made the surface look dull, with large brown stains where the dirt was more prominent.

Our experts explained that shower surfaces are more prone to stains because they're constantly exposed to the minerals in hard water. When you add soap-based cleaners into the mix, there's a lot more risk for its porous surface because much of the dirt gets trapped under a foamy film. This also explained the cracks in the grout, which allowed even more water to be shed behind the tiles. The shower needed a thorough cleaning service, followed by our flagship sealant on the grout. Our techs explained the entire process to the homeowner, and by the end, there was no doubt in her mind. She scheduled a new appointment for the restoration, and they agreed to return before the end of the week.

On the scheduled date, our specialists brought their equipment into the house and prepared the shower area before getting started. First, they used a permeating cleaner to scrub off the dirt more effectively, spreading the product across the walls and the tub before working on each of the stains. They also vapor-cleaned the entire stall before starting to work on the grout.

For this part, our crew used a powerful epoxy solution to regrout the broken seams, enhancing their resistance to water and mold. Then, they used Sir Grout's ColorSeal to revamp the grout lines on the walls until they all matched the color of the tiles. This fantastic sealant is the perfect solution to optimize your cleaning efforts because it protects the grout against water, soap, mold, and mildew for months.

At the end of the restoration, all parts of the shower, from the large bathtub to the grout on the walls, were the same pink shade. The client was delighted with the result and showed it off to the rest of her family while thanking our techs for exceeding all her expectations.

Before ending the appointment, our experts shared some valuable tips to improve routine maintenance. As they explained, pH-neutral cleaners are the best way to save time and get the desired result on tile and grout surfaces. Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner stands out from other products from the first time you try it because it does a quick job of removing the stains that usually give you grief. It works against the stickiness left by soap scum and other marks caused by high traffic, and you don't have to worry about corroding your surfaces over time. Our non-toxic product is the ideal solution to preserve the hygiene of your bathroom spaces.

Here are other ways to help on this end. Our specialists always recommend cleaning any liquid residue on the surface after you shower, preferably with a towel or a squeegee. This way, you'll eliminate all the residue without subjecting the tiles to harsh treatment. We also stress the importance of having good indoor ventilation.
