Our Grout Cleaning Experts Left a Shower in Milton Looking Amazing

June 28, 2024

A homeowner in Milton wasn't pleased with the state of his shower, especially after dedicating countless hours to its maintenance. The main issue was the worsening damage to the shower seams, which only added to the moldy patches on the walls and a dark spot that ruined the white ceramic on the tub.


As the days went by, the homeowner's frustration turned into genuine concern for his shower surfaces. He went online looking for professional grout cleaning services in Milton, hoping to avoid a scenario in which he had to tear down any part of his shower. From the moment he found Sir Grout of Greater Boston, the owner knew that our techs would have the expertise to solve his problem. He checked our picture gallery and other parts of our website before filling out the form to request an in-home evaluation. The entire process took only a few minutes and, by the end, the homeowner felt like a weight had been lifted off his shoulders.

A few days later, our techs arrived at the client's home, all ready to inspect the shower. They got started right after being led to the bathroom and immediately noticed the areas where the grout had started to come apart. The horizontal seams were pretty damaged, particularly below the bathtub valve, and mold had speeded into the gaps that were left by the loose grout. Dark patches also spread between the tiles on the walls, and all sides of the shower looked duller and neglected.


Regular cleaners wouldn't work, but that didn't mean that the original surfaces couldn't be restored to their former beauty. Our specialists outlined Sir Grout's methods in detail, explaining each step and answering the client's questions along the way. Near the end of their visit, the client requested our services and both parties agreed on a date for the restoration.

On said date, our crew returned to the house early in the day. After preparing their equipment, they used a permeating cleaner to remove all the embedded dirt and the stains caused by soap scum. They also steam cleaned the shower stall to ensure that nothing remained on the grout.

The following step was the grout's restoration. Our specialists scraped out the loose grout from around the tub and used pure silicone caulking to reinforce the area against water, mold, and wear and tear. They also applied Sir Grout's flagship ColorSeal on the walls until all the grout lines had the same smooth white color. Our sealant works as a protective barrier that keeps external elements at bay. It wards off mold, mildew, water, efflorescence, and other elements for months on end, so homeowners don't have to struggle just to keep the stains off the grout.

Our experts let the client see the result soon after checking the shower for the last time. The homeowner was blown away by the result. The shower looked pristine and there were no hints of damage on the grout. Anyone would've thought that the shower had never been used before. He thanked our crew for doing such a wonderful job and promised to spread the word about our grout cleaning service.

Before ending the appointment, our techs had some additional recommendations to share. First, they stressed the importance of preventing exposure to harsh ingredients and introduced Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner as the best option for this. Unlike soap-based products, pH-neutral cleaners don't have acidic imbalances that could damage the surface after repeated use. As such, our product provides all the cleaning power you could ask for without adding to the deterioration caused by wear and tear. It doesn't discolor the tiles or corrode the grout, and your bathroom spaces don't have to be subjected to toxic fumes each time you do your chores.

To enhance the performance of pH-neutral cleaners, our experts also went over the importance of using the right tools. Non-abrasive tools like towels and squeegees work best for shower surfaces because they simplify things on harder-to-reach areas without risking scratch marks on the tiles.

Last but not least, our specialists always recommend keeping an eye on the room's ventilation. If there are signs of mold and mildew on the shower joints, chances are that the shower area is becoming stuffy. That's why we always remind homeowners to open the windows and doors so the room gets more fresh air throughout the day.
