Our Grout Sealing Experts Restored the Beauty of These Bathroom Surfaces in Wellesley

May 02, 2023

Despite their durability, natural stone surfaces need constant care and attention. A couple in Wellesley had always been up to the task, following a strict cleaning routine that stopped the accumulation of stains around their bathroom surfaces. The master bathroom was made of cream marble tiles, creating a traditional look that the couple had cherished for years. Their collective efforts always paid off, but they knew that professional assistance was needed to deal with the dark spots spreading across their floor's grout.


Once they saw the first few stains, the couple kept finding new pockets of dirt at an alarming speed. Most of the floor tiles had been stained in some way, and the problem soon extended to the shower walls. Since the dirt had adhered to the porous surface, the homeowners couldn't get rid of the stains on their own. Fortunately, our Wellesley grout sealing specialists were ready to meet all their needs.

The couple discovered Sir Grout of Greater Boston while looking for a restoration service in the area, and their search engine led them to our picture gallery. As expected, the homeowners were impressed by the quality of our results and wanted to have our techs' opinion. It only took them a few minutes to fill out the request for an in-home evaluation, and our specialists went to their home the very next day.


During the inspection, our crew looked into each of the stains and noted the amount of embedded dirt on the grout and the floor tiles. The marble was discolored, with some parts looking dirtier than others. When the couple gave a rundown of their cleaning methods, our techs explained that many of their cleaning products had acidic imbalances that exposed the marble tiles to a lot of damage. Sadly, this is the case for most of the products on the market, which is why the clients saw no improvement when they tried a different cleaning formula. Since water and soap scum had removed most of the sealant, the grout lines were the first to become stained. Meanwhile, foot traffic and regular wear and tear had left their mark on the bathroom floor. It all sounded very bleak, but our specialists reassured the couple, telling them that Sir Grout's special equipment could undo all the damage. The clients were both thankful and relieved when they requested our restoration services.

A few days later, our experts returned to work on the couple's bathroom. They started by soaking the marble surfaces with a stone-safe cleaner, and the dirt started growing loose in just a few minutes. Our product never fails to provide a deep cleaning effect because it helps eliminate the most stubborn stains without subjecting hard surfaces to harsh ingredients. There was nothing distracting our specialists as they scrubbed off the dirt, and they made sure that nothing remained between the tiles before steam cleaning the shower area.

Then, they worked their magic on their grout, using our signature ColorSeal to match the color of the marble tiles. This amazing sealant is the surest way to simplify grout maintenance. On top of preserving the grout's look, it wards off liquids and external elements like grime, soil, mold, mildew, and soap scum. It even protects against UV rays, so you can expect long-lasting results.
Our techs repeated the process on the bathroom floor after sealing all the shower walls and buffed the surface for good measure. Now, all the marble surfaces shared the same beautiful cream color, with no stain to dampen their good looks. To say the couple was impressed was an understatement. They were ecstatic after seeing the result and immediately promised to recommend our services to their friends and relatives in Wellesley.

Our techs' job was done. Before leaving the house, they took a moment to share some cleaning pointers with the clients. As they explained, pH-neutral cleaners are the most effective way to deal with stains. Products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner remove the marks left by mold and soap scum without weakening marble surfaces over time. Likewise, our product doesn't damage the sealant so grout surfaces can stay protected for much longer without being exposed to harsh chemicals.

An effective cleaning system combines surface-safe cleaners with non-abrasive tools to preserve hard surfaces like stone and grout. With this in mind, our techs also recommended using a towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee to remove the marks once the dirt has grown loose. The clients were worried about the effects of moisture buildup, so we suggested to wipe any stale water and the product residue that usually remains on shower surfaces. The home was equipped with a great ventilation system, so our techs agreed that the couple's current cleaning routine would counter the spread of mold and mildew.
