Our Crew Transformed a Shower in Severn with the Best Grout Cleaning Service

September 10, 2023

A homeowner in Severn had tried to improve her shower's look many times, but nothing seemed to work against the stains spreading all over its surface. The yellowed grout lines were mostly to blame for the shower's unhygienic appearance, but the problem also extended to the tiles on the walls and the floor. All sides of the shower looked neglected, and the homeowner was discouraged by such an outcome after dedicating so many hours to cleaning her shower.


At this point, she knew that something was missing from her cleaning routine, but she couldn't see what made her cleaning products so worryingly ineffective. The stains grew until the entire ceramic surface looked darker, and the accumulation of soap scum left large marks on the floor. Tired of getting the same lackluster results, the homeowner went online looking for answers and found the best Severn grout cleaning service. She found our website and learned all she could about Sir Grout Annapolis before contacting our specialists via our "Request a Quote" form.

Later that week, our crew was at her doorstep, ready to begin an in-home evaluation. They inspected the shower area, looking at the layers of efflorescence on the surface and checking for grout damage. Right away, they noticed that the grout had no sealant, and this had caused dirt to cling to the surface. The shower seams could also use some repairs after the water had slipped into the grout pores. When the client asked about her failed attempts to remove the stains, our techs explained that soap-based cleaners tend to worsen the problem, creating a foamy film that keeps the dirt trapped on the surface. Luckily, they had the necessary equipment to remove all the stains and even enhance the shower's resistance to wear and tear. Our techs went over Sir Grout's restoration process with the client, and she quickly agreed to hire our services. The appointment ended with our specialists' promise to return in a few days' time.

On the agreed-upon date, our techs came back to the client's house. They were led to the bathroom and started preparing their equipment for the shower's restoration. For the first step, they soaked all shower surfaces with a pH-neutral cleaner and scrubbed off the dirt as it got loose. Unlike generic formulas, our cleaner works effectively against soap scum, grime, mold, mildew, and other stains. It simplifies cleaning and removes the need to mix different products just to get the stains off the grout. After taking care of the stains, our techs steam-cleaned the shower thoroughly and got ready for the next part of the process.

They carefully removed the old caulk from the seams and installed epoxy grout to make their surface more resistant. This would provide more durability against liquids and gradual deterioration. They made sure to provide the same level of protection on the wall's grout, applying a layer of ColorSeal to all the grout lines. This high-end sealant inhibits the growth of mold and mildew while warding off most substances. With our sealant's long-lasting protection, it becomes easier to keep the grout clean and smooth.

The shower's transformation was complete. The ceramic tiles glowed beautifully, and the white grout complimented the shower's refined look. As expected, the client was dazzled by the shower's shine when she went back into the room, and she promised to tell more people about Sir Grout Annapolis and the expertise of our grout cleaning crew.

She wax even more pleased when our specialists shared some additional tips to help her maintain the shower's brand-new look. Our techs recommended using pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner to clean her bathroom as these formulas don't have any of the harsh ingredients that cause so much damage to grout and ceramic surfaces. This also makes our cleaner safer to work with because there are no toxic fumes contaminating your living spaces and the people nearby. When it comes to the best cleaning tools, our techs recommended using a terry cloth, a squeegee, or other fabric-based tools to leave no dents on the tiles. Sharp tools can scratch the surface if you scrub too hard and this makes way for new stains, on top of compromising the shower as a whole. Lastly, our techs recommended keeping all bathroom surfaces dry to prevent the spread of mold. Opening the windows and doors from time to time is a simple way to go about it, but our techs also recommended cleaning any pools of water and other leftover liquids on the shower floor.
