Our Tile and Grout Cleaners Bring a Shower in Concord Back to Life

August 15, 2023

Sometimes, a diligent cleaning routine isn't enough to prevent the effects of moisture buildup around shower surfaces. A couple in Concord was at a loss when their master shower unexpectedly started gathering more mold than normal. Years before, they'd been ecstatic after coming across their dream shower during their house hunt and their dedication to it didn't falter once they owned the place. Needless to say, the couple was upset, but they kept putting time and effort into the shower before deciding that they needed a professional assessment.


The homeowners didn't have to wonder for long. They found Sir Grout Concord on their first day of research and became amazed by our website's content, particularly the results shown in our picture gallery. They wanted a thorough restoration for their shower, and they knew that our tile and grout cleaners in Concord had the answer. The couple agreed to contact us via our "Request a Quote" form to schedule an in-home evaluation with our techs.

On the appointed date, our techs went to the client's house to look at the shower. It wasn't hard to identify the problem once they walked into the room. Layers of mold eclipsed the shower's rustic appeal, making its surface look unsanitary instead. From the floor to the length of each wall, black grout lines clashed against the dull colors on the tiles. When asked about the source of the problem, our techs explained that many traditional cleaners enhance the effects of wear and tear by creating a foamy film around the grout pores. Mold, mildew, and other substances get stuck inside to the point that hours of scrubbing can't get them loose. After checking the state of the shower joints, our techs offered to make the necessary repairs. They would bring their professional cleaning equipment to work on the embedded dirt and restore the grout to its original look. The couple was eager to get their old shower back so they immediately scheduled a new appointment with our crew.

Our techs returned a few days later and got to work right away. They began deep cleaning the shower with a pH-neutral cleaner, carefully removing the dirt as it got loose on the surface. Our powerful cleaner provides the most thorough results in areas affected by moisture buildup. It removes soap scum, mold, mildew, soil, grime, and other fluids without making the tiles and grout more vulnerable to damage. In no time, our techs were ready to steam clean the shower and left it ready for the next portion of the process.

The floor joints had suffered from water that seeped behind the tiles, so our techs started removing the old caulk before installing our resistant epoxy grout on the floor. This would protect the seams and prevent structural problems down the line. To restore the grout on the walls, our techs applied ColorSeal to all the grout lines, covering each wall until the grout perfectly matched the color of the tiles. This sealant not only brings the most amazing transformation to make grout surfaces look brand new but also provides the most durable protection against external elements, keeping everything away before stains even get a chance to appear on the grout's porous surface. Our sealant is the best asset to help homeowners preserve their bathroom area without dedicating endless hours to scrub the stickiest stains.

After giving the finishing touches and checking the grout and seams one last time, our techs let the couple review their work. Both homeowners were satisfied from the moment they saw their newly restored shower. Thanks to the perfect blend of color between grout and tiles, the shower exuded warmth while keeping its classic beauty. The clients happily thanked our specialists, already planning to contact Sir Grout Concord for other restoration projects they'd been keeping on the back burner.

The clients showed great interest when our techs told them about the risks of chemical cleaners, so our specialists ended the appointment with some additional recommendations to help them along the way. First, they told the couple that pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner were the safest and most effective alternative to generic formulas. Our product doesn't weaken the sealant's protection after regular use and none of its ingredients can trigger the discoloration of hard surfaces. In fact, it provides deeper cleaning while simplifying the process for homeowners, ensuring that tile and grout stay smooth and stain-free for much longer. Our second recommendation was to keep the bathroom area well-ventilated to prevent the growth of mold and mildew. Opening the windows and doors a few hours a day is an easy way to prevent moisture in narrow spaces where there's limited circulation of fresh air. Lastly, our techs reminded the couple to wipe any pools of water or product residue left on the shower floor and walls. To do this, they recommended using non-abrasive tools like a towel or a squeegee to avoid scratching the tiles by mistake. The homeowners thanked our specialists once again and promised to follow their recommendations during their weekly cleaning.
