Our Specialists Revamped This Bathroom Floor in Westport With Their Grout Sealing Skills

July 08, 2024

Bathroom cleaning is a time-consuming task, so homeowners naturally want their efforts to pay off. Unfortunately, this bathroom floor in Westport, CT, wasn't meeting the standard despite the homeowner's constant attempts to remove the embedded dirt. The details on the tiles looked muted and it was impossible to ignore the soiled grout when it went from beige to dark brown in less than a month.


While looking for solutions online, the homeowner came across Sir Grout of Greater Fairfield County and our grout sealing service in Westport. Everything she read led her to believe that she could trust our techs' expertise, so the homeowner decided to ask for their opinion. She filled out the form to request an in-home evaluation, and we didn't keep her waiting.

On the scheduled date, our specialists visited her house to look at the bathroom floor. It was obvious that the floor had seen better days, as shown by the soiled grout and the lack of sheen on the tiles. Grime and soap scum were stuck on the porous surface, altering the floor's color and texture. Moreover, the grout was vulnerable to damage now that the sealant had faded.

Our techs confirmed that regular cleaners would do little to solve the problem, no matter how many times the homeowner used them on the floor. They'd created the soapy film that covered the floor, allowing the dirt to seep between the tiles. A deep cleaning service would take care of the problem, and our crew also had to seal the grout so it would be better protected in the future. The client listened attentively as they explained the process and finally scheduled a new date for the restoration.

Following her request, our experts returned to her home the next day, and she welcomed them in after seeing our identified vehicle. Inside the bathroom, our techs used a permeating cleaner and a high-speed scrubber to remove all traces of dirt; all the tiles looked spotless after a few laps around the room, and our techs were ready to seal the grout.

They applied ColorSeal to all the grout lines and carefully removed the residue as they moved around the room. Sir Grout's signature sealant provides maximum protection against soil, grime, mold, mildew, soap, and more, so grout surfaces can stay clean and smooth for much longer. Our sealant is also available in multiple colors, so it's easy to make the grout blend with the tiles.

The result was a shiny floor and pristine-looking grout lines to add a new air of elegance. Our specialists called the client back into the room after buffing the floor, and the result was that it took her breath away.

These are the recommendations our techs shared at the end of the appointment. First, they introduced pH-neutral cleaners as the perfect alternative to stop using chemical-based products for good. Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner leaves your surface spotless and preserves the sealant's grout protection. It delivers the best result without exposing tile and grout surfaces to harsh ingredients, so you can stop worrying about discoloration and other issues. Also, this means that toxic fumes are no longer a problem, so it's easier to keep a safe environment indoors.

Our crew also recommended using only non-abrasive tools to remove the residue. A towel or a mop is enough to scrub off external elements, including the soap scum that often gets stuck between the tiles. They provide far more precision than what you'd get from steel wool or other sharp tools.

Lastly, our specialists reminded the client to open the windows and leave the door ajar for a few hours. Bathroom surfaces become stuffy when don't get enough fresh air throughout the day, and the result is more mold and hygienic issues to deal with later on.
