Our Techs Showed the Quality of Their Tile Cleaning Service While Restoring a Shower in Palmetto

December 04, 2024

A couple in Palmetto couldn't stand the appearance of their master shower, but they were at a loss after trying all the popular cleaners in the market. Despite all their attempts to protect the tiles, a sticky layer of soap scum had spread around the lower half of the walls, not to mention the layers of mold that kept growing thicker around the tiles on the floor. With the stains becoming more and more noticeable, the couple agreed to seek the assistance of a tile cleaning service in Palmetto.


Trusting a professional was the most reasonable option since the couple didn't want to try any DIY methods without knowing the risks involved. They started looking for options online and came across Sir Grout Sarasota, specifically examples of our shower restoration method in the website's picture gallery. As expected, they were both impressed by the results on display and decided to contact our crew after reading more about the company and its services.

A few days after their phone conversation with one of our agents, the couple welcomed our specialists into their home. Inside the bathroom, our techs evaluated all the issues affecting the shower surfaces, from the embedded mold on the floor to the wall's discoloration and the damage to the seams. Hard water and other external elements had weakened the grout's sealants, and most of the surface was unprotected. This led to the absorption of water, soap, and other external aspects until the mold spread beyond the couple's control.

The homeowners were unsurprised when our techs explained the problems of using traditional cleaners since they'd been disappointed by different products over several weeks. After our crew tested their own cleaner on the grout, they showed the couple the result and offered their restoration services.

They returned the following day, as requested by the homeowners. At the start of the restoration, our experts used their surface-safe cleaner on every part of the shower and carefully scrubbed off all the embedded dirt. Then, they eliminated all traces of mold with a 275-degree vapor steamer.

For the next step, our experts removed the old caulk and regrouted the seams around the floor. Thanks to our waterproof epoxy grout, seams, and corner joints can withstand moisture more effectively because nothing seeps into the surface. This way, homeowners can prevent the spread of mold and avoid structural problems.

Our crew applied ColorSeal to all the grout lines to restore the grout on the walls, increasing their protection against water, mold, mildew, soap, and more. Our sealant guards porous surfaces against external elements so nothing gets stuck between the tiles. The grout perfectly matched the tiles' color and had the best protection to keep its uniform color for a long time.

The shower looked gorgeous, and our specialists' masterful job ensured that the grout showed no signs of damage. All the seams looked smooth and brand new, so the couple was thrilled with the result. They thanked us for our work and promised to recommend our services to everyone they knew.

Our crew had some additional tips to share at the end of the appointment. Since they knew that regular cleaners wouldn't stop the same scenario from happening again, they first recommended using only pH-neutral products on the shower and other hard surfaces. Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner shows that you can complete your household chores in less time while getting more thorough results. It provides maximum cleaning power to remove all the dirt, no matter where it's located, so that you can prevent the accumulation of stains on shower seams and in other parts of the grout.

Additionally, you can use it on tile and grout surfaces several times a week without worrying about discoloration because its formulas have no acidic imbalances. Your shower won't be exposed to harsh ingredients, and household members no longer have to deal with toxic fumes permeating their bathroom spaces.

Other recommendations included a reminder to keep the door ajar and a list of tools to use while wiping off the most stubborn stains. Shower surfaces are less likely to get moldy if you keep them dry for most of the day; removing any soap residue and preventing the worst effects of moisture buildup will be much easier. That's why we always recommend scrubbing off any leftover dampness with a towel, a squeegee, or other non-abrasive tools.

Sir Grout Sarasota is the solution you've been looking for to fix the damage caused by mold and chemical cleaners. Your grout surfaces will stay protected for months, and you can truly bask in the beauty of a clean shower.
