Our Experts Restored the Floors of a Lansdale Household With an Amazing Stone Cleaning Service
June 17, 2025
A homeowner in Lansdale, PA, knew that the beauty of her foyer and kitchen area had much to do with the floor's elegant travertine tiles. The floors made both parts of the house look larger and more sophisticated, so she never faltered regarding routine maintenance. Unfortunately, pitted travertine can attract lots of dirt relatively quickly. Due to the grout's noticeable discoloration, the owner needed extra assistance to restore the floors' new appearance.
Once she decided on this, there was no going back. She stopped using regular cleaners and searched online for a professional stone cleaning service in Lansdale, PA. While the owner had been ready to spend hours reading about every company in the area, her mind was made up after discovering Sir Grout Bucks PA. The owner eagerly read about our past jobs before filling out the contact form to request a visit from our crew. That same week, we were at her doorstep for an in-home evaluation.
The owner showed us the foyer and kitchen area inside the house while answering our questions about her cleaning routine. The travertine's beauty was undeniable, but it was impossible to ignore the marks left by foot traffic and the embedded dirt on most of the pitted surface. The grout lines were unsealed, so thick dirt was stuck between the tiles, particularly on the kitchen floor, where the grout looked much darker.

The solution was a professional cleaning and sealing service. This would prevent the accumulation of dirt on the porous surface, so the owner wouldn't have to struggle as much in areas where it was hard to minimize the effects of foot traffic. Once specialists explained each part of the process, she thanked us for our assessment and scheduled a new appointment for the job.
The best way to deal with the problem was with a thorough cleaning and sealing service to preserve the floor's color in the following months. Our crew outlined the process for the client and presented a no-obligation quote. Needless to say, she gladly accepted our offer for the restoration.
We returned to the house on the scheduled date with everything we needed to work on the foyer and kitchen area. Our experts started by soaking the floors with a stone-safe cleaner and running a high-speed scrubber over each surface. This removed all the product residue and embedded dirt on the travertine's porous surface.
To restore the grout, our techs used Sir Grout's signature ColorSeal. The client had already expressed her wish to create a soft contrast between the grout and the tiles, so we used a light beige color to deliver the desired effect. Because this acrylic-based sealant works as a barrier on the grout pores, homeowners don't have to constantly deal with embedded dirt between the tiles, including the marks caused by spills and foot traffic.
After applying stone sealant, our specialists buffed the entire floor, completing another successful restoration in record time. The client loved the result and thanked us for reviving two of the most essential parts of her home. She also promised to recommend our services to more people in Lansdale, PA.
When asked about additional ways to preserve the floors and other natural stone surfaces, our techs had the perfect answer for the client. We reviewed a series of pointers to improve routine maintenance, starting with the right products to remove dirt more effectively. pH-neutral formulas like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner offer far more advantages than what you'd get by mixing multiple chemical-based products. Our cleaner acts without exposing the travertine to harsh ingredients, so there's no risk of discoloration from repeated use. You can remove deep marks and old stains in minutes because our high-quality formula is effective against several elements, including grease, soil, grime, mold, and more.
Like chemical-based cleaners can corrode the surface over time, abrasive tools can leave permanent scratches on a stone floor. That's why we also recommended using a mop or a terry cloth to wipe out any spills or shoe prints without risking damage to the travertine tiles.
Finally, our experts stressed the importance of maintaining good indoor ventilation. Although the client's home had several sources of fresh air, this is still an important tip to remember regarding the hygiene of kitchen surfaces and smaller areas like bathrooms or basements.
