Our Crew Provided the Best Tile Cleaning Service to Restore This Shower in Lawrence
January 05, 2024
A dirty shower compromises your bathroom's hygiene and appearance. This is a problem that can't be easily fixed when the dirt is embedded into the tiles, and it can easily ruin your whole day. A Lawrence homeowner had endured the sight of his dirty shower for weeks. He'd lost count of the number of attempts he made to remove the mold on the seams before he came across Sir Grout Nassau New York.The homeowner found our website at the top of Google's results, and his research eventually led him to our picture gallery. He loved what he saw and felt that it was safe to trust our Lawrence tile cleaning service with his shower. By the time he scheduled an in-home evaluation, the homeowner had already contacted someone to help him with the tub, but he couldn't stand the stains that covered the rest of the shower area. That's why he asked if we were available to visit him that same week. Our specialists didn't disappoint. On the appointed date, they were at his doorstep at the start of the day.
They assessed his shower right away, taking in the damage to the grout and the tiles. Mold and mildew ran all over the walls, dulling the ceramic's color and covering most of the grout lines. The seams lining the bathtub were particularly concerning. They had started taking an unpleasant yellow hue after absorbing water and soap scum for weeks. Our experts explained that the room's humidity had weakened the sealant until it had all faded from the grout. On top of it all, the use of bleach and acidic cleaners had created a soapy film that only helped the spread of mold and efflorescence. The homeowner was worried about lasting damage, but our techs knew that they had the means to leave the shower looking as good as new. They described Sir Grout's shower restoration package and the homeowner enthusiastically agreed to a new appointment not long after.
So, our techs visited his home for a second time only a few days later. They started the process by deep cleaning the shower with a special cleaner. In only a few minutes, our product got all the stains loose on the grout, and our techs had no issue while scraping the mold and soap scum off every surface. Thanks to our exclusive cleaning formula, there's no time wasted when removing unhygienic elements from shower surfaces. It also poses no danger to tile and grout surfaces, so the results surpass anything you could achieve with generic, soap-based products. The first stage of the process was complete after our crew steam cleaned the shower stall from top to bottom.
Then, it was time to restore the grout. Our experts applied ColorSeal to all the grout lines, recoloring each wall to make the grout match the color of the tiles. Thanks to our powerful sealant, the grout would remain free of stains, with no mold or liquids seeping into its porous surface. To repair the seams, our techs installed mold-resistant epoxy grout after carefully eliminating the loose caulk. Shower seams attract much of the damage caused by wear and tear, so they need the most effective protection. Our epoxy grout keeps external elements at bay and helps prevent lasting structural damage.
The restoration was a success and the client was in awe. He could now appreciate the beauty of his shower area, from its elegant coloring to the tiles' new shine. He also promised to recommend our services to his friends and relatives in Lawrence.
At the end of their visit, our techs took a moment to share some additional pointers. The client was worried about being unable to preserve the tiles' pristine look, so our crew recommended a new cleaning solution. Unlike most of the products on the market, Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner is free of ammonia, bleach, and other harmful elements. PH-cleaners are known for providing maximum cleaning power without causing discoloration and other side effects. Our product is the best example of this; it works against common shower stains so you don't need to combine it with chemical cleaners to enhance effectiveness. On its own, our cleaner works wonders to keep bathroom surfaces in top condition for much longer.
Shower surfaces are particularly exposed to the effects of moisture buildup, so our techs gave the client additional recommendations to help on this end. They instructed him to use a towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee to remove shower stains, as well as the residue that cleaners leave behind during routine maintenance. This ensures thorough results while minimizing the risk of scratches on the tiles. Additionally, we recommend to mind the room's ventilation. Since the home's ventilation system isn't enough to counter the spread of mold and mildew, homeowners can open the windows nearby to encourage the circulation of fresh air.
