This Floor in Westport Got Top-Tier Services from Our Tile and Grout Cleaners

December 16, 2024

A homeowner in Westport got upset each time her cleaning efforts failed to bring her guest bathroom back to its former beauty. The room was made of beautiful tiles, but wear and tear had done a lot to dull its shine. This was bad enough, but the homeowner was particularly concerned by the amount of dirt covering the grout lines.


A quick online search led her to Sir Grout of Greater Fairfield County and some minutes of reading through our website showed her that she could trust our tile and grout cleaners in Westport. The homeowner contacted our specialists via our online scheduler and didn't waste time setting up a date for a visit.

That same week, our crew went to her house for an in-home evaluation. The homeowner welcomed them into the house and led them to the guest bathroom, where our techs started inspecting the floor. While the homeowner had managed to prevent the tiles from getting any visible marks, they still looked dull and lifeless. The dark gray grout had absorbed a lot of dirt, so there was no way to guess its original color just by looking at it.

The solution was to deep clean the floor and seal the grout to prevent the issue from repeating itself. High-traffic surfaces accumulate dirt in no time, and regular cleaning isn't enough when there's no sealant protecting the grout. The homeowner listened as our techs explained Sir Grout's restoration process before requesting a new appointment with them.

So, our crew returned to her house at the end of the week. After being led to the bathroom for a second time, they prepared the area and cleaned the floor with a surface-safe formula. They also used a high-speed scrubbing machine to remove all traces of dirt more effectively.

When it was time to seal the grout, our specialists applied ColorSeal and recolored the grout lines to match the client's specifications. This acrylic-based sealant preserves grout surfaces against liquids, mold, and other external elements. It creates a protective barrier that keeps the dirt at bay so nothing reaches the porous surface. Homeowners don't have to get used to dealing with soiled grout, and their floors look much better throughout the day.

Lastly, our techs applied a tile sealant and buffed the floor several times before calling the client back into the room. By the time she entered the guest bathroom, the tiles had the most gorgeous shine, and the floor had regained that air of elegance that had been lost over the past few weeks. The homeowner happily thanked our crew for their work and promised to recommend our services to more people in Westport.

Before ending the appointment, our experts went over some additional cleaning tips with the client. They started by introducing Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner, stating that pH-neutral cleaners are by far the best option to improve hard surface maintenance. Unlike soap-based cleaners, our product removes dirt without subjecting the surface to harsh ingredients. It works against grime, mold, mildew, etc., and homeowners can expect positive results even when the dirt is stuck between the tiles. Our second recommendation was to avoid steel wools and other abrasive tools. More importantly, sharp tools may scratch hard surfaces, so you could have a bigger problem if that's all you use while scrubbing off the stains. As our techs explained during their visit, a mop, a towel, or a terry cloth will deliver much more satisfying results.

Our specialists recommend keeping the area well ventilated throughout the day. Bathroom surfaces don't receive as much fresh air as other parts of the house, so it's beneficial to keep the bathroom door open and any nearby windows.
