This Shower in Rock Hill, SC Was Restored by Our Grout Sealing Experts
June 22, 2022
Grout deterioration is more common than you may imagine. A homeowner in Rock Hill, SC, recently noticed a problem with her shower. She saw that the color of the shower's grout lines had changed from white to a mix of gray and black after some time. The grout lines had been subjected to lots of wear and tear, and many acidic cleaning products had been used to try and keep the shower clean.
The homeowner was dissatisfied with the soiled grout lines in her master shower, so she searched for people who could help her with the state of her shower. As she was asking for advice from others, her neighbor recommended our services. The neighbor informed her that she had dealt with a similar issue a few months prior, and that Sir Grout Charlotte's grout sealing professionals had successfully resolved it.
The homeowner went online and found our grout sealing services in Rock Hill, SC, as per her neighbor's recommendation. She looked at our before and after picture gallery after browsing the website for a few minutes to learn more about our services. She was blown away by the grout restoration work we did on tiled surfaces, which was just what she was searching for. She contacted us to schedule a free in-home evaluation because she was confident in our ability to restore the grout in her shower.

On the arranged day, our crew arrived at the client's home to assess the situation. After a comprehensive assessment, our team determined that the shower surfaces were in bad shape due to improper cleaning. Grout must be applied with care if it is to survive and maintain a consistent color. During the evaluation, our technicians provided the homeowner a detailed explanation about why the grout looked the way it did.
The client wanted to know if there was anything we could do to fix this. Even though the grout was soiled, our experts stated that the damage was primarily on the surface. Our professionals offered to clean the grout and seal it with ColorSeal, our proprietary sealant, to remedy the problem. This would not only restore the grout lines' color, but it would also render them impenetrable to hazardous external chemicals. The client accepted the service and scheduled a date for the job.

Later in the week, our experts returned to the customer's home to restore the shower. Our team began by soaking the ceramic tile surfaces in a pH-neutral, soap-free cleaner that is safe for both tile and grout. This cleaner also contains ingredients that help prevent the formation of mold and mildew. Next, our technicians used a high-speed scrubber to remove the cleaner from the tiles and grout lines on the shower's floor. Some of the caulking in the joints was damaged, so it had to be replaced. Surfaces must be as clean as possible for ColorSeal to adhere to the grout correctly.
Our team began the sealing procedure once they finished cleaning and regrouting the surfaces. ColorSeal, Sir Grout's proprietary acrylic-based sealer, was used to accomplish this. Our sealant closes the pores in the grout, protecting it from water, dirt, stains, mold, and mildew. ColorSeal is available in a number of colors to match the color of any tile. The customer chose a color that seamlessly went with the tiles' look.
The procedure went off without a hitch. The client was really delighted with the outcome. Before leaving, our crew provided the homeowner a few pointers on how to keep the floor in good shape. While ColorSeal makes grout lines easier to maintain, regular cleaning processes are still required to extend the life of the grout lines. Our technicians suggested cleaning the shower once a week with our Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner, which is soap-free and pH-neutral.
Unlike most cleaning products, ours does not contain acidic ingredients that can harm tile and eat away at grout. Wiping off any extra moisture with a dry cloth was also recommended. Although ColorSeal makes grout stain-resistant, allowing shampoo, soap, water, or other external chemicals to linger on the floor for long periods of time can cause harm. The shower will stay in good shape if our recommendations are met. Our client expressed gratitude for our technicians' recommendations and stated that she would talk about our services with her friends and relatives.
