Our Tile and Grout Cleaners Made a Shower in Sarasota Look Stunning

June 26, 2023

A homeowner in Sarasota had single-handedly taken care of her bathroom area for years, so she knew how to keep her shower in good condition. Unfortunately, the shower's natural beauty was eclipsed by the dark stains on the tiles despite the homeowner's best efforts. She'd spent weeks jumping from one cleaner to the rest, trying to stop at least the spread of some stains all over the shower walls and floor. Keeping a clean grout became a significant challenge, and the grout lines looked dirty even after hours of scrubbing.


The homeowner was fond of her ceramic shower, so she didn't want to reach a point where tearing down the tiles was the only solution. She started looking for professional assistance and came across Sir Grout Sarasota shortly after that. The name sounded familiar, and once she started reading through our website, the homeowner realized that she'd heard her colleagues say good things about our tile and grout cleaners in Sarasota multiple times in the past. She was eager to contact our specialists, so she filled out our "Request a Quote" form and scheduled an in-home evaluation.

Our specialists visited her home on the appointed date and wasted no time inspecting her shower. They understood the homeowner's concerns after seeing the amount of mold that gathered on the grout and the dirt that kept ruining the tiles' appearance. The tiles on the corners were scratched, and upon a closer look, our techs also noticed some water damage on the seams. Hence, they knew the caulk needed to be replaced to avoid compromising the shower's structural integrity.

At the end of the inspection, our techs listed the areas that needed attention and explained the cause of the problem. Water and other substances had seeped into the grout's porous surface, and the constant use of soap-based cleaners only left the shower vulnerable to the effects of moisture buildup. When the client expressed her concerns over permanent damage, our specialists reassured her that the shower could regain its brand-new look. They offered to apply Sir Grout's restoration method and set a second date with the client.

A few days later, our techs returned to her house as scheduled. They started by deep cleaning the shower, using a pH-neutral cleaner to get the dirt loose on the surface. Our product helps remove different stains in record time, working wonders on ceramic surfaces and removing soap scum and other liquids without trouble. Our specialists made sure to eliminate all traces of dirt before steam cleaning the shower, paying particular attention to the floor around the sink and all the shower joints.

Then, they repaired the damage on the floor's grout and replaced the old caulk with resistant epoxy grout. With this, our techs increased the shower's durability and enhanced the seams' protection against external elements. When it was time to seal the grout on the walls, they covered all the grout lines with ColorSeal. Our sealant instantly showed off the grout's smooth surface and complimented the tiles' color. More importantly, it provided the most powerful protection to keep mold, mildew, soil, grime, and efflorescence away from the grout.

Our techs had fully transformed the shower from dull and dirty to spotless and elegant in a single session. The client was thrilled when they showed her the results, praising our work and taking her time to admire her shower from all angles. She also promised to recommend our services to everyone in Sarasota and couldn't wait to tell her relatives about her renewed shower.

Just before leaving the client's home, our specialists shared additional tips to improve cleaning and maintenance. They recommended pH-neutral products as the most effective alternative to replace generic cleaners. Neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner remove the stains much more effectively, along with all concerns over toxic fumes permeating your living spaces. Our cleaner combines the best ingredients to bring the best results and preserve a shower's good looks for much longer. When wiping off the stains, our techs recommended using a towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee, as non-abrasive tools allow more precision without scratching the tiles. Other recommendations included opening the windows and doors to allow fresh air circulation and watching for droplets and pools of water. Any dampness left sitting for too long can trigger the growth of mold and mildew, eventually complicating routine maintenance as the stains start spreading to harder-to-reach areas. The client thanked our specialists again and promised to apply our recommendations during her weekly cleaning routine.
