It doesn't take long for a shower to start losing its beauty once the sealant fades from the grout. A homeowner in Englewood noticed the change when regular cleaning became a constant struggle to restore the grout to its original color. In time, the grout lines on the floor took an unattractive yellow shade while nothing could stop the mold from spreading around the seams.

Shower Before and After a Service from Our Tile and Grout Cleaners in Englewood
The homeowner wasn't about to let the problem get any worse, so she decided to contact our tile and grout cleaners in Englewood after hearing about Sir Grout Northern New Jersey from a friend. She went to our website and read more about our services before contacting our techs via the contact form. As expected, she didn't have to wait long for a response.

Following her request, our specialists visited her house two days later for an in-home evaluation, and the homeowner caught their attention after spotting our logo on the vehicle. She led them to the master bathroom and explained her issues with the shower, so they knew what to expect when they finally got to see the shower stall.

The darkest stains were on the floor, particularly the grout lines near the entrance and around the sink. Beyond that, there were signs of decay on the seams, which explained the amount of mold that had seeped into the pores. Our techs explained that it's common for water and soap to slip behind the tiles when there's nothing protecting the grout. Shower surfaces are all the more vulnerable because they're constantly exposed to moisture and artificial cleaners, so they're usually a hot spot for mold and mildew.

With all of this in mind, our experts offered to deep clean every surface and seal all the grout lines on the large shower stall. They reassured the homeowner that there was no permanent damage to the grout after confirming that they wouldn't subject the shower to harsh ingredients during the restoration. Pleased by their assessment, the client had no qualms about scheduling another session with our crew.

On the appointed date, our crew returned to the house with all the necessary equipment. They prepared the area with clear plastic and masking tape before they started with the first step of the restoration. When everything was ready, our techs used a surface-safe cleaner to get the dirt loose on the surface, carefully scrubbing off the residue as they moved around the shower stall. They also cleaned the area with a 275-degree vapor cleaner to eliminate all traces of mold from the corners.

By then, the grout was ready for the next part of the process. Our experts restored the seams with water-resistant epoxy grout after peeling off the damaged caulk. They completed the process on all the horizontal joints before sealing the grout on the walls and the floor. For this part, they used Sir Grout's ColorSeal to bring back the grout to its original color, a light beige shade that perfectly matched the color of the tiles. Our sealant doesn't stop at giving the grout a makeover; it also provides long-term protection against water, soap scum, mold, mildew, and more.

The restoration was complete after our specialists removed the sealant's residue from around the grout. The client was amazed from the moment she stepped back into the bathroom, remarking on how the shower looked larger and more elegant. She thanked our team for their hard work and promised to recommend our services to her friends and family in Englewood.

The client asked about ways to preserve the shower's brand-new look and our techs were happy to share their knowledge. Their first recommendation was to choose pH-neutral cleaners over traditional products since the latter are far more likely to damage shower surfaces over time. Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner not only removes the risk of discoloration, it also provides maximum cleaning power to help you preserve your shower surfaces more effectively. Another advantage of using pH-neutral cleaners is the chance of encouraging healthier spaces because there's no exposure to toxic fumes. This also means that shower surfaces don't get corroded by chemical ingredients and the sealant's protection stays for much longer.

Our experts also recommended to use only non-abrasive tools when scrubbing the tiles. A towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee will allow you to remove all the residue without scratching the surface in the process. Lastly, we always share a general reminder to prioritize the ventilation of bathroom surfaces. This is key to prevent the spread of mold and mildew, and it doesn't require major changes in your cleaning routine. You can simply make a habit of opening the windows and doors to start seeing an improvement.
