Somerville Tile Cleaning: Bringing Back the Beauty to a Dingy Bathroom

December 20, 2021

A resident from Somerville, NJ, had been struggling with the maintenance of his bathroom floors. The surface had suffered heavy deterioration and it looked run-down. Despite his efforts, he noticed no improvement. The owner was not happy with this situation and he wanted a fast solution. After some consideration, he decided to look for a professional hard surface restoration company. Luckily, he found Sir Grout Bucks PA and West NJ and we provided timely assistance.


The owner heard about us from a neighbor. She was a loyal client, and when he told her about his problem, she immediately recommended our Somerville Tile Cleaning, saying we had brought her kitchen floors back to life. He followed her advice and visited our website to learn more about us. After browsing our picture gallery, and reading the positive feedback we have received, he called us, explained the situation, and asked for a free in-home consultation.

The request was quickly processed, and soon after, we arrived to perform the inspection. After welcoming us, the owner showed us the affected area. As we entered the bathroom, we noticed the problems. The tile and grout lines were dirty, and the shower's caulking around the joints was badly damaged as well. The entire bathroom had an unsanitary appearance because of these issues. Upon closer look, we learned the grout needed sealing. We explained this common mixture is porous and when it is unsealed, it can absorb water, dirt, and grime. To prevent further damages, it's necessary to apply a special sealant.


When we finished the evaluation, we had acquired the insight to offer a solution. Regular cleaning wouldn't work, therefore an effective restoration would require Sir Grout's professional process and top-notch equipment. We proposed our tile cleaning service to address all the damages and overhaul the bathroom with an improved appearance. The owner accepted the offer and hired us for the job.

We returned on the appointed date with the necessary equipment to restore the bathroom's surfaces. To ensure the best results, we must follow a series of steps. First, we cleaned the surface using our exclusive cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Our product is pH-neutral, doesn't leave a residue, and offers many other benefits. After scrubbing out the soiling, we continued with the grout repairs.


When grout is badly damaged, common cleaning methods are ineffective. For this reason, it becomes a headache for many homeowners, a time-consuming chore they would like to avoid. Nevertheless, Sir Grout Bucks PA and West NJ has the tools and the expertise to easily fix any issue on this vulnerable component. We painstakingly worked on the entire bathroom, giving the tile floor and grout lines a brand-new look. For the following step, we addressed the shower's damaged grout.

Since the grout was in poor condition, we replaced it with a resilient epoxy solution. Unlike regular grout, this product isn't porous and has a durable composition. It's ideal for showers because it's resistant to mold and mildew. After that, we were ready to finish the job with the sealing process.

To achieve long-lasting protection, we applied a coating of Sir Grout's ColorSeal. Our-top-of-the line sealant provides unmatched defense. It wards off dirt, grime, and other external agents, reducing deterioration from daily use. ColorSeal greatly improves the surface by giving the grout a uniform color and a brand-new appearance. It comes in a wide range of colors, so our clients can select the most suitable for their surfaces. Our work yielded the expected results, the surface had been fully revamped, and the bathroom looked phenomenal.

After a successful restoration, we showed the results to our client. The owner loved the renewed appearance of the bathroom. Impressed with our work, he said our performance had surpassed all his expectations. Before we left, he thanked us and assured us he would recommend Sir Grout Bucks PA and West NJ to everyone.

Tiled surfaces subjected to heavy use can deteriorate quickly and require proper care. Following our recommendations is the best way to prevent damages and minimize decay. We suggested setting a regular cleaning routine. When performing this chore, use only soap-free cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner.

Our product is made with high-quality ingredients and offers excellent results. It is also non-toxic and safe for everyone in the house, including pets. Avoid using soap-based cleaners and substances with acidic properties. The harsh agents and chemicals in these products can have negative effects on the surface. They leave a sticky foam that seeps into the grout, which can lead to issues like stains or discoloration.

Mold and mildew are a threat, and before long, these fungi can pose a health hazard for everyone. To prevent this problem, provide a source of fresh air by leaving the door ajar or window open, and after using the shower, dry the surface with a squeegee, a towel, or a terry cloth. Squeegeeing regularly also helps to reduce the accumulation of dirt.
