This Kitchen's Ceramic Floor Recovered Its Beauty After a Grout Sealing in Quincy, MA

September 07, 2018

When our next customer decided to install ceramic tile for her kitchen floor, she knew this surface was the best and the most affordable option she had because it can be used in a wide variety of environments. It is also one of the most resistant types of materials for floors in any room of the house, especially in a high foot traffic area like the kitchen. However, the lifespan of the surface usually depends on how it is maintained over the years because, unfortunately, most people do not use the proper cleaners or the correct techniques in their maintenance routine, damaging the surface little by little.


The resident had been living in her home in Quincy for five years and she always used the cleaning products her mother used to apply on the house when she was a child. She had no idea that using those types of cleaners would slowly damage the ceramic tiles on her kitchen floor. A few weeks earlier, the homeowner's best friend was visiting the city and decided to pay a visit to the woman. It had been a long time since his last visit, so as soon as he entered to the kitchen, he noticed the ceramic floor was not what he remembered. The blue color it once had was completely dull and the grout lines were so dark that he couldn't believe it. The owner told him she had been having that issue for a long time, but she didn't know what other product or method to use for solving the problem. Her friend assured her there was no better choice than looking for professional grout sealing services in Quincy to restore the kitchen floor.

Since the woman had tried everything on the surface with no positive results, she decided to follow her friend's advice and searched online for high-quality hard surface restoration companies. After seeing many different websites that didn't impress her, she saw Sir Grout of Greater Boston's page in the top search results and decided to give it a chance. While browsing on our website, she viewed several photos in our gallery of our past work. She was amazed with the incredible outcomes. What completely convinced her was the positive reviews left by satisfied clients, so she placed a call to set up a free in-home examination as soon as possible.

A few days later, our grout cleaning professionals arrived at the customer's home to assess the ceramic surface. The homeowner invited them to the kitchen. Once they saw the floor, they recognized the problem right away. The tiles had lost their original blue color and the grout lines had gained a black appearance. Our experts explained that this usually happens when people use harsh products and improper techniques when cleaning the surface, allowing the ceramic and grout to accumulate grime over time. They told the client that a grout cleaning job followed by the application of ColorSeal would be more than enough to get back to life her kitchen floor. She accepted the offer and scheduled a date for the service.

Our technicians went back to the woman's residence to get the job done. They started the process by cleaning the entire surface using Sir Grout's proprietary hard surface cleaner, which contain highly effective agents. They then used a high-speed scrubber to remove the accumulated dirt from the floor. To finish the service, our team of professionals applied our proprietary sealant, ColorSeal. They explained to the resident that this product recolors the grout lines, making them resistant against stain, water, mold, and mildew. Additionally, ColorSeal leaves the grout looking like new.

Once the process was done, our specialists showed the owner her just-restored kitchen floor. She was amazed to see the outstanding transformation on the ceramic surface. We had recovered the original color and the grout lines were totally cleaned. She thanked our experts for the job and mentioned that she would recommend Sir Grout of Greater Boston to anyone needing hard surface restoration services.

Before leaving, our technicians took their time to instruct the customer on the proper care she needed to apply to the kitchen floor. First, they suggested she vacuum the surface regularly to remove loose dirt. Also, they told her to dry it with a towel or terry cloth to prevent dirty water being left behind. They also recommended using a pH-neutral cleaner like every Sir Grout's cleaning products in her maintenance routine because they were the best option she had. Our proprietary cleaners can now help inhibit the growth of microorganisms and surfaces can stay clean after the product is applied.
