Our Tile and Grout Cleaners Transformed a Shower in Millersville with Their Restoration Services

July 22, 2024

A homeowner in Millersville was very worried about the shower in her guest bathroom. She took care of cleaning the bathroom every week, but the shower kept collecting mold around the corners and the floor. Basically, hours of scrubbing didn't stop the shower from looking neglected and the homeowner wanted to find a solution before having any more people over at her house.


She figured that contacting a restoration company would be quicker and much more effective than trying different cleaners at once. So, the homeowner started looking for options online and discovered Sir Grout Annapolis not long after. She was impressed by everything she read about our tile and grout cleaners in Millersville so, in the end, she didn't have any reservations about scheduling a visit from our techs.

A couple of days after she made her request online, the homeowner welcomed our techs into her house. During their evaluation of the shower, they noticed dozens of stains spread across the floor and the grout on the walls. The sealant had probably faded long ago and the damage to the seams only confirmed our experts' suspicions about it. This part of the shower had absorbed a lot of water and the minerals had discolored the surface. Part of the caulk had also gone loose because of this, so our techs knew that the seams needed to be re-grouted during the restoration.

They explained each step of the process to the client and she asked some follow-up questions to get a clear picture of what the process would entail. Then, she set the date for the appointment and our team agreed to visit again later that week.

On the scheduled day, they returned to her house with all the necessary equipment and got to work right away. First, they deep cleaned the shower stall and removed all the embedded mold as it grew loose. To do this, our specialists used a permeating cleaner and a 275-degree vapor steamer. With this process, our techs restored the beauty of the ceramic tile surface.

Next, they replaced the damaged caulk with waterproof epoxy grout, successfully restoring the most damaged parts of the shower. They also used ColorSeal to seal the grout lines on the walls and the floor, recoloring the surface and enhancing its resistance to water, mold, mildew, soap residue, etc. Our sealant is available in multiple colors to create the best visual effect and its protection stays on the grout for a long time.

This marked the end of another successful restoration. The homeowner was thrilled when we showed her the result and she had nothing but praise after seeing the grout's transformation. After thanking our crew for their work, she promised to recommend Sir Grout Annapolis all around Millersville and its surrounding areas.

Before leaving the client's home, our crew shared some additional tips to help her optimize her cleaning routine. Regular cleaners would always deliver lackluster results, so we recommend trying pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Combining many high-quality ingredients, our cleaner simplifies routine maintenance by removing the stains more effectively. It also works without weakening the grout's sealant and its composition rules out the risk of tile discoloration. There's no better way to get the desired result and a healthier environment.

Our second recommendation was to use non-abrasive tools like a towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee. A steel wool is likely to scratch the tiles even when you don't scrub too harshly, and fabric-based tools allow more precision when removing residue from harder-to-reach surfaces.

Lastly, our specialists reminded the client to check that the room get enough fresh air throughout the day. Shower surfaces are especially prone to wear and tear because they're smaller and constantly exposed to moisture. Just by leaving the door ajar and opening the windows nearby, you can prevent the accumulation of mold and mildew.

If your shower looks anything less than spotless, the specialists at Sir Grout Annapolis will make sure it meets your hygiene standards. Our services are tailored to provide lasting results so you don't have to struggle to keep your bathroom surfaces looking amazing after the restoration.
