A Tile Cleaning Job in Everett, WA Provided Outstanding Results to This Damaged Shower

May 07, 2020

A homeowner from Everett contacted us because there was an issue in his shower. The floor was cracked and he didn't have time to fix it. There were other problems as well. The tiles were badly stained and the grout lines were full of dirt. He couldn't bear the unsightly appearance of the surface, so he tried some DIY method he found online. Unfortunately, nothing worked. Frustrated with the negative outcome, he asked one of his friends for advice.


She was a former Sir Grout Seattle client and immediately recommended our Everett Tile Cleaning service, saying it was the best in town. She advised him to visit our website to get more information. As his friend suggested, he went online to visit our site. After browsing the images on the picture gallery and reading all the positive feedback we received every day, he was convinced we could help. He called us and requested a free assessment.

Shortly after the in-home consultation request, we arrived to inspect the shower. The first problem we noticed was the crack on the floor. We found missing grout and other issues as well. The grout lines had accumulated dirt, grime, and soap residue, acquiring a dark, unsightly appearance. As the evaluation continued, we spotted efflorescence stains. We explained that this will happen when the minerals in the water react with soap residue. Only a special stain remover can solve this problem.We also noticed the grout lines needed sealing. Unsealed grout can absorb external agents, leading to deterioration.

When we finished the evaluation, we concluded that regular cleaning methods wouldn't provide the results the owner was hoping for. The restoration required Sir Grout's professional process and high-end equipment. We proposed a tile cleaning service to give the surface a breath of new life. The owner accepted our offer and hired us for the job.

We returned to our client's house a couple of days later to restore the shower. To begin the process, we cleaned the surface using our exclusive cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Our product is pH-neutral and made with top-quality ingredients. To make sure the surface was spotless, we used a steam cleaner to remove any embedded dirt. Once the surface was completed, we got rid of the efflorescence using a high-grade stain remover. After that, we proceeded with the grout repairs. Using our professional tools, we re-grouted the crack in the shower's floor and fixed all the issues. To finish the restoration, we continued with the sealing process.

For this task, we used Sir Grout's flagship sealant ColorSeal. Our top of the line product is ideal for showers because it reduces deterioration from daily use, warding dirt and grime. ColorSeal also improves the surface by giving the grout a brand-new appearance. It comes in a wide range of colors, allowing the owner to match the tiles with the grout. When we finished the job, the surface looked great and the shower had been fully restored.

Our client was beyond thrilled with the results of our work. He was very happy because the process had been fast and efficient. He thanked us, saying our performance surpassed all his expectations. Satisfied with our job, our client assured us he would recommend Sir Grout Seattle to everyone he knew.

Shower maintenance can be difficult and oftentimes doesn't yield the expected results. Following our recommendations is the best way to keep these surfaces looking great. We suggested setting a regular cleaning routine. For better results, use only pH-neutral soap-free cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Unlike regular store-bought products, our cleaner doesn't leave residue and offers many benefits. We don't recommend using soap-based cleaning solutions or substances that contain acidic properties. These products are harsh, leave residues, and can produce negative effects on the surface.

To prevent mold and mildew growth, it's necessary to decrease the levels of moisture in the shower. We recommended keeping the area dry and well-ventilated. After using the shower, leave the door ajar or a window open and dry the surface using a squeegee, a towel, or a terry cloth rag. Squeegeeing after every use minimizes the accumulation of dirt.
