October 04, 2023

Pets are adorable, great company, and often protectors of your home, but they can also cause damage to floors and surfaces.

At Sir Grout, we are committed to our customers and always do our best to meet their needs.

Recently, a resident in Washington, CT, contacted us about the deterioration of the stone floor in his bathroom and hallway, which he suspected was caused by his Golden Retriever tracking soil into the house.


On a friend's recommendation, he found Sir Grout of Greater Fairfield County for stone cleaning services in Washington, Connecticut. Before contacting us, he looked at our website and learned more about our specialized stone cleaning services. He browsed the images in our picture gallery and knew right away he wanted to hire Sir Grout of Greater Fairfield County to clean and restore his floors.

He wasted no time scheduling a free quote with us to learn more about our services and see how we could help.

During the visit, the homeowner provided our technician with additional information, which helped us better assess the floor damage.

While inspecting the bathroom and hallway, we found multiple issues that required attention. The grout had become dark with dirt residue, and the stone tiles appeared worn out, which created an overall impression of deterioration. It was clear that cleaning and restoration would be needed to bring the floor to life again.


Our tech explained the situation to the homeowner and suggested cleaning and restoring the grout. We did a small demonstration to show them the difference we could make. They were impressed and hired us to do the job.

We began with a thorough cleaning using our stone-safe cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Our cleaner is designed to protect the travertine stone while gently cleaning it.

Regular cleaning products are usually ineffective when dealing with stains, discoloration, or severe damage, but our specially formulated products are designed to work where others don't. They are also safe for humans and animals, which is a plus for our clients with small children and pets.

Our next step was to tackle the grout. This isn't an easy task or one that you want to approach without some knowledge of how it's done. This is why we encourage our clients not to struggle with this chore and to leave it to Sir Grout of Greater Fairfield County. We have the necessary tools, and our stone and grout experts are skilled at handling even worst-case scenarios.

Our experts worked on the bathroom floor, completely bringing the grout back to life. Afterward, we sealed the surface using Sir Grout's flagship sealant, ColorSeal.

ColorSeal offers unmatched defense, protecting surfaces from dirt, grime, and other external agents. It reduces deterioration and makes cleaning fast and easy. It also gives the grout a uniform color and a brand-new appearance. It comes in various colors, so our clients can always match tiles with the grout.

The restoration for this client was a success. The homeowner was impressed with the results of the bathroom and hallway and thanked us, promising to recommend our services to anyone who needed them.

Stone floors require specific maintenance, especially when pets are around. Following these recommendations can keep them in good shape and protect them from further damage.

Stay away from soap-based cleaners or substances with acidic properties. These products contain harsh agents that can be harmful to the surface. They can also leave a soapy layer that seeps into the grout, causing stains, discoloration, and other issues.

Always use clean mops and prevent foot traffic on the wet surface. Place a doormat near exterior doors to reduce the accumulation of dirt.

Avoid using abrasive tools for cleaning. Like abrasive cleaning solutions, these tools can scratch the stone.
