A Shower in Columbus Looks Incredible Thanks to Our Tile and Grout Cleaners

November 04, 2024

For weeks, routine cleaning had been a constant struggle for a couple in Columbus, specifically when it came to their results in the master shower. All parts of the shower were stained in some way, from large stains left on the floor and the walls to thick layers of mold that ran across most of the grout. Intense scrubbing only managed to remove a small portion of dirt, and the stains spread faster than they'd done in the past.


Luckily, it wasn't long before the couple found the perfect solution to their problem. They discovered Sir Grout Central Ohio while looking for alternative solutions online and were delighted by everything they learned about our tile and grout cleaners in Columbus, OH,. Reaching out to us was simple enough via the website's contact form, and our techs visited the couple's home a few days later, as scheduled.

Upon inspecting the shower, they immediately noticed some signs that the grout had been absorbing water for a while. When there's no sealant protecting the surface, it's easier for minerals and soap to seep into the porous surface, ultimately prompting structural damage to the seams. That's why there was so much mold embedded in most of the tiles. The stains on the tiles were just as noticeable, so our techs tried their cleaner on the surface to proof the effectiveness of our shower restoration process.

They explained that bleach and soap-based products only cause more problems because they leave a foamy residue that traps the dirt on porous surfaces. That's why sealing the grout is one key part of our process, along with deep cleaning and grout repair. The homeowners had no trouble making a decision once our experts were done with their assessment, so the visit ended with a plan to have the shower restored later that week.

On the appointed date, our specialists returned to the couple's house with all the necessary equipment to work on the shower. After preparing the area, they soaked every surface with our non-toxic cleaner and scrubbed off all the embedded dirt, including the embedded mold on the grout and all the soap marks on the ceramic. They also used a 275-degree vapor steamer to ensure that no traces of dirt remained on harder-to-reach surfaces.

Our crew regrouted the damaged areas with waterproof epoxy grout, enhancing the seam's resistance to structural problems later down the line. Then, they used our flagship ColorSeal to make the grout match the beauty of the tiles on the walls and the floor. Our sealant is available in multiple colors to suit any preference, and it's tailored to help you preserve grout surfaces in the long run. Its protection works against external elements like water, soap, cosmetic residue, mold, mildew, and more. Regular cleaning is much more effective when you don't have to worry about dirt getting stuck to the grout pores.

The homeowners were thrilled when our experts showed them the result. All parts of the shower looked uniform, so it was easier to appreciate the tiles' layout. After marveling over the grout's transformation, the clients thanked our crew for their services and promised to spread the word to more people in the area.

Near the end of the appointment, our specialists listed some additional tips to help the couple with their cleaning routine. PH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner are the surest way to avoid the frustration that the couple had experienced over the past few weeks. It removes the most stubborn stains without causing damage to the surface after repeated use, so you won't find any signs of discoloration after weeks of regular use. Our product removes mold, mildew, soap scum, grime, and other substances much faster, and there's never any need to add other cleaners into the mix.

PH-neutral cleaners also help keep a safer indoor environment because they don't release toxic fumes into the air. Other ways to keep the right hygienic conditions in your bathroom spaces include boosting the circulation of fresh air and wiping any liquid residue sitting on the floors.

As our techs told the clients, mold thrives in damp areas, which is why shower seams can collect heaps of dirt in only a few weeks. A way to prevent this is by using a towel or a terry cloth to wipe out the leftover water and soap. Likewise, we recommend opening the windows and doors to improve the air quality inside your home.

Sir Grout Central Ohio provides high-quality services to restore the beauty of your tile and grout surfaces, no matter the case. Our process is effective in areas where traffic and moisture buildup can visibly alter the grout, which is why we are the go-to choice when it comes to the restoration of showers and other bathroom surfaces.
