A Floor in Daniel Island Got a Full Restoration from Our Tile and Grout Cleaners

June 11, 2024

A homeowner in Daniel Island wasn't satisfied with the appearance of her master bathroom. Each part of the room received regular care, but that didn't stop the floor from looking neglected, even when the cleaners were still drying on the surface. The tiles looked duller and there was a large dark stain taking the spotlight right at the center. This was caused by soil and grime that were embedded in the porous surface, so no amount of scrubbing could improve the floor's look.


After serious consideration, the homeowner decided to look for professional assistance. She'd tried to scrap off some of the stains but gave up on that approach after seeing how hard it was to avoid scratching the tiles in the process. Like many of our previous customers, she started her search online and learned about our tile and grout cleaners in Daniel Island after visiting our website. Then, the homeowner filled out the form to ask for an in-home evaluation, asking for our techs to visit her home within two days.

On the scheduled date, our techs were at her doorstep and the client immediately identified their vehicle and uniform. She went over her efforts to clean the floor while leading them to the master bathroom, including the different products she'd used on the most affected parts of the surface. Upon seeing the bathroom floor, our specialists understood her concerns. The discoloration on the tiles was the first thing that caught their eye, and from there, they immediately noticed the amount of dirt covering the grout lines.


Taking care of such porous surfaces isn't easy, but many homeowners use generic cleaners without knowing how these products can make things worse. The master bathroom already saw a lot of foot traffic during the day, so the homeowner had used soap-based products multiple times a week to reduce the number of stains, unknowingly getting much of the dirt stuck on the grout pores. Our techs reassured her of their ability to fix the issue after trying their product on a portion of the floor, so she was much more optimistic by the end of the appointment.

At her request, our crew returned to her house the following day for the restoration. First, they stripped the floor using a permeating cleaner and a high-speed scrubbing machine. They made sure to eliminate all the stains before moving on to the next step.


The client wanted the grout to contrast with the ceramic tiles, so our techs used a light beige sealant to recolor the grout lines after deep cleaning the surface. Our flagship ColoSeal brings all the benefits you could ask for when it comes to grout maintenance and high-traffic surfaces. It's available in multiple colors and provides long-lasting protection to repel water, mold, mildew, grime, soap, and more. To complete the restoration, our specialists buffed the floor with tile sealant and called the homeowner back into the room.

She loved the result, stating that the floor's new look elevated the bathroom's appearance as a whole. Later, she also promised to recommend our services to other homeowners who also needed help with their bathroom surfaces.

Before leaving her home, our experts shared some additional recommendations to help the client with the cleaning routine. As they said during their visit, bleach and other traditional cleaners do little to improve things once the dirt is embedded in the surface. By contrast, pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner don't have acidic imbalances in their formula so they're equipped to provide much better results. You don't need to mix our cleaner with other products just to remove the stains; it detaches the dirt from grout and tile after only a few minutes, so homeowners can save time and effort during their chores. Another tip to simplify routine cleaning is to use non-abrasive tools like a towel or a clean mop. This is particularly important around high-traffic areas where it would be harder to hide the scratches left by sharper tools. Our last recommendation was to check that the ventilation system was enough to keep the air from growing stale around the bathroom area. Bathroom surfaces don't get as much fresh air as other parts of a house, so homeowners need to be extra vigilant to prevent mold, mildew, and other issues that could harm the bathroom's hygiene.
