Our Tile and Grout Cleaners Restored the Beauty of This Tile Shower in Tampa
June 05, 2024
After countless cleaning attempts that did nothing to improve the look of his shower, a homeowner in Tampa was ready to change tactics. He knew that regular cleaners had no effect on the black stains on the grout so he saw no point in replacing the products in his cupboard for something that could be just as bad. Instead, he started looking for professional assistance and this decision led him to discover our tile and grout cleaners in Tampa.![Shower Floor Before and After a Service from Our Tile and Grout Cleaners in Tampa](/pictures/pages/96/shower-tampa-tile-and-grout-cleaners.jpg)
Our website was at the lead of his Google search results and the homeowner was instantly impressed by our online content, from our picture gallery, from dozens of glowing reviews left by previous customers. Upon contacting Sir Grout Tampa, he got more information about our shower restoration services and our agent helped him secure an appointment at his earliest convenience.
Our specialists were at his doorstep the very next day for an in-home evaluation, as scheduled during the phone call. The homeowner led them to the bathroom and showed them the shower stall. There, our techs assessed the state of the grout, taking note of the areas where cracks had started to show. While the soiled grout was the most notable issue, the tiles were also discolored, especially on the floor. Our experts explained that unsealed grout can't stay clean for long after the minerals in hard water start permeating its porous surface. They also reassured the client that their equipment would solve the issue and made a point to test their cleaners on one of the moldy patches on the floor. Impressed by their expertise, the homeowner thanked our specialists for the insight and scheduled a new appointment for the restoration.

A few days later, our crew was back at the house, this time with all the necessary equipment to work on the shower. They prepared the area and used a surface-safe cleaner to remove all the embedded dirt, making their way from the walls to the floor, where most of the dirt had gathered. They also vapor cleaned the stall with a 275-degree vapor steamer to ensure that no traces of mold were left behind.
Now that all external elements had been removed from the porous surface, our experts removed the loose caulk and installed our epoxy solution on the seams. Then, they sealed the grout on the walls and the rest of the floor with ColorSeal, an acrylic-based sealant that protects grout from water, soap, grime, mold, mildew, and more. The process left the grout looking as good as new and the light gray lines created a subtle contrast that enhanced the floor's transformation.
They client was amazed by the result and took his time admiring our work on the grout. After thanking our specialists for their service, he promised to spread the word about Sir Grout Tampa and to contact us if he encountered similar problems in other parts of his home.
Here are the recommendations that our techs shared with the client at the end of the appointment: First, they told him that replacing generic solutions with pH-neutral cleaners would do a lot to upgrade her cleaning routine. For instance, Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner makes it easier for homeowners to remove embedded mold and soap scum so you can keep the dirt from spreading without wasting hours of your day. Our product's composition also rules out the worst side effects of soap-based cleaners because there are no harsh ingredients corroding the grout and no toxic fumes invading your bathroom area. Another tip is to use non-abrasive tools like a towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee. These tools reach the dirt trapped between the tiles much more easily and you won't be forced to scrub too hard, potentially risking damage to the ceramic.
Our final recommendation is a general reminder to open the windows and doors throughout the day. Bathroom surfaces, in particular, are prone to gathering mold in a relatively short time after being constantly exposed to moisture. By ensuring constant circulation of fresh air, you're also preserving your shower's hygiene.
