These Floors in Arroyo Grande Went Through an Amazing Transformation Thanks to Our Tile And Grout Cleaners
April 30, 2024
Routine cleaning had turned into a never-ending struggle for a homeowner in Arroyo Grande. She'd spent weeks trying to improve the look of the bathroom attached to her bedroom but the grout kept on gathering dirt. When the same scenario took place in her hallway bathroom, she knew that regular cleaning wouldn't cut it.She wasn't particularly confident with this decision at the beginning; it's not easy to trust a stranger and she didn't have a frame of reference on who to trust. That all changed when one of her friends recommended Sir Grout Central Coast, and the homeowner marveled at each new thing she learned about our tile and grout cleaners in Arroyo Grande.
Her mind was made after checking other customer reviews and looking through our picture gallery. Her initial impression improved even more after she contacted us via phone call. Our agent answered all her questions and helped her schedule an appointment at her earliest convenience.
Two days after the call, our specialists arrived at her house in an identified vehicle and donning their company uniform. The client was ready to welcomed them into her house, so there were no delays before our crew began their evaluation of the two bathroom floors. In both cases, the grout had been stained beyond recognition, with mold and grime hiding its original color almost completely. The homeowner had done what she could to preserve the ceramic tiles but it was hard to make the floor look good once the dirt got embedded on the surface.
Our specialists explained that these issues arise after the surface has been exposed to chemical cleaners for too long. These products gradually weaken the grout's sealant while opening the pores to external elements until most of the dirt gets stuck between the tiles. Foot traffic and moisture also played a part, making it harder to keep up as new stains keep appearing on the floor. The solution was to deep clean the surface and seal the grout to ensure lasting protection against wear and tear. Our crew outlined the process for the client and she trusted their assessment on the issue.
At her request, our experts returned to her house the next day for the restoration. They got an early start to be done with the two rooms on the same day, staring with the client's personal bathroom where the dirt was more visible. First, the floors were cleaned with a permeating cleaner and a high-speed scrubber to eliminate all the dirt as it grew loose.
When nothing remained on the surface, our techs applied ColorSeal to all the grout lines on the floor. Our sealant provides maximum protection against all sorts of external elements and it's available in different colors to guarantee the most attractive result. The floors in the two bathrooms had similar layouts, so the client choose a beige color to make the grout match the tiles. With our sealant in place, all it takes is regular cleaning to keep the grout spotless for much longer.
Our crew buffed the floors until the ceramic shone beautifully next to the newly-restored grout. The homeowner loved the result and she thanked our team for transforming her bathroom surfaces so thoroughly. She also promised to spread the word about our cleaning and sealing services around everyone she knew.
At the end of the appointment, our techs shared some useful cleaning tips with the client. They started by recommending pH-neutral cleaners to avoid the issues she'd encountered in the past. Products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner surpass most of the options available when it comes to their cleaning power, removing common stains in minutes and preserving the natural color of your tiles. Because our cleaner doesn't have a high concentration of chemicals in its formula, it doesn't disrupt your home life with the release of toxic fumes, so you can use it as often as needed. Another important recommendation is to avoid using abrasive tools on tile and grout surfaces. You can get the desired result with a mop or a clean towel without risking scratch marks on the surface.
Lastly, our specialists also reminded the client to keep both bathrooms properly ventilated. An easy way to do this is by opening the bathroom door and the windows during the day. The circulation of fresh air with hinder the spread of mold and reduce the chances of embedded dirt between the tiles.
