Our Specialists Showed Their Grout Sealing Skills While Revamping This Floor in Mount Pleasant

December 30, 2024

It's frustrating to feel like you're making no progress in your cleaning routine, a feeling that most homeowners are unfortunately familiar with. Even when you schedule your chores to prevent the spread of dirt, it's hard to make a breakthrough while working on unsealed grout. A homeowner in Mount Pleasant knew that she needed the assistance of a grout sealing professional when she started taking more time to clean her kitchen floor, only to get the same dull look on the grout. The problem was located in the area connecting the kitchen to the small storage on the side, and it was all the more noticeable when you compared that part of the floor with the rest of the kitchen area, which was still kept in top condition.


She came across Sir Grout Charleston at the start of her online search and soon lost any interest in checking what other companies had to offer. From our picture gallery, she could tell that she could trust the skills of our grout sealing services in Mount Pleasant, and the reviews left by previous customers added to her resolve. A few days after she filled out the form to get in touch with us, our techs arrived at her house for an in-home evaluation.

A few minutes into their inspection, they confirmed that there was no sealant on the grout, which explained the amount of dirt between the tiles. The homeowner confirmed that she'd used chemical-based cleaners on the floor, and unfortunately, that added to the deterioration caused by foot traffic and wear and tear. When these products subject tile and grout surfaces to harsh ingredients for too long, the floor starts losing its sheen, and the colors on the tiles look less vibrant. Because of all of this, the kitchen floor looked dull and neglected, even after hours of scrubbing.

Our specialists had the solution for the problem, so they immediately offered to deep clean the surface and seal the grout with their special equipment. The homeowner agreed with their approach and scheduled a new appointment after thanking them for their assistance during the evaluation.

On the agreed-upon date, they were back inside the kitchen, readying their equipment to work on the floor. For the first step, our experts soaked the surface with a non-toxic cleaner and ran a high-speed scrubber several times until all the dirt was eliminated.

Once the entire surface was spotless, they started sealing the grout lines with Sir Grout's ColorSeal. Thanks to our sealant's protection, there's no need to worry about dirt spreading across the grout because there's a barrier keeping all external elements away from the pores. Repelling soil, grease, food residue, water, grime, and more, our signature sealant is the perfect solution to preserve the grout's uniform color for months on end.

Our crew buffed the floor once they were done, and by then, nothing overshadowed the floor's beauty. The homeowner loved the tiles' new look and praised our specialist after seeing the grout's new color. She thanked us for the restoration and promised to recommend our services to all the people she knew in Mount Pleasant.

While putting away their equipment, our crew shared some useful tips with the homeowner. They told her that pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner are much more effective at preserving kitchen surfaces in the long run. There's no shortage of options in the market, but most of them only give homeowners more to deal with, triggering discoloration and grout damage after repeated use. Our product's formula combines only the best ingredients to provide more effectiveness and satisfying results without weakening the sealant's grout protection. It removes common stains in minutes, and homeowners no longer have to be exposed to toxic fumes during their chores, reducing the risk of contaminating their kitchen surfaces.

Our techs also recommended combining pH-neutral cleaners with non-abrasive tools to optimize the household's cleaning routine. Ceramic tile floors are subjected to a lot of damage when you use a steel wool to scrub off the dirt. By contrast, a clean mop or a towel will remove all the stains easily while bringing out the beauty of your ceramic surfaces.  

Our last tip was to open the windows and doors every day to let fresh air into different parts of the house. When a room is stuffy and the air becomes stale, chances are you have to deal with more mold and mildew during your weekly cleaning sessions. The quality of your ventilation system can make a huge difference in your cleaning results, with more fresh air creating a nice environment for people and pets.

No one wants to spend hours on household chores just to get lackluster results at the end of the day. Sir Grout Charleston provides the services you need to ensure that never happens again, from the most advanced cleaning equipment to lasting protection to preserve the color of your grout surfaces.
