A Homeowner in Somerset Was Thrilled With Her Shower's New Look After Our Tile Cleaning Process

April 21, 2025

A Somerset homeowner worked hard to preserve the unique beauty of her master shower, and she'd set the bar high when it came to the cleaning products she used for the task. She immediately noticed when the pristine white surface started showing signs of discoloration, particularly on the floor's grout and the lower half of the walls. This made her rethink her cleaning routine, so the homeowner decided to ask the opinion of a hard surface professional.


She discovered Sir Grout Western New Jersey on her first online search and was immediately intrigued by everything she read about our tile cleaning service in Somerset. Our picture gallery also showed the transformation of bathroom spaces that looked similar to her master shower, and that was particularly reassuring since the homeowner was still wary about putting the shower's care in the wrong hands. By the time she gave us a call, the homeowner was confident about our expertise and eager to let our specialists assess her shower.

We arrived at her house a few days after her conversation with one of our agents, and the owner took us to the master shower for the evaluation. Overall, many shower parts were spotless, showing the client's commitment to maintenance, but that only made the problems stand out more. For one, the white ceramic surface looked duller, and the details on the tiles looked slightly muted. The shower wasn't attractive, and the floor had yellow grout.

When the client asked about it, our experts explained that discoloration results from many factors, like exposure to hard water and the soapy residue of traditional cleaners. All these elements alter the color of hard surfaces while trapping the dirt on the grout once the sealant starts fading. That's why we offered to seal the grout on top of a thorough cleaning service with our high-end equipment. The client was reassured after we confirmed that our process didn't involve any abrasive ingredients, so she gladly accepted the offer.

As scheduled during the evaluation, our specialists returned to her house the next day to work on the shower. First, we covered the surrounding area with masking tape and clear plastic before using a special cleaner on the walls and the floor. Thanks to the product's permeating effect and our 275-degree vapor steamer, our techs could easily eliminate all the embedded mold and soap scum. By the end of it, the details on the tiles looked vibrant against the smooth white ceramic.

For the next step, we removed all the damaged caulk and regrouted the corner joints with our high-end epoxy mix. This process also eliminated all the risks attached to cement-based grout because our epoxy solution provides maximum resistance against mold and decay.

Then, it was time to restore the grout lines on the wall and the rest of the floor, so our experts applied Sir Grout's ColorSeal, taking extra care when working on the floor's unique layout. This amazing sealant works as a protective barrier that keeps the grout from absorbing liquids, product residue, mold, and other external elements. It's also available in multiple colors to ensure the grout's final look matches the homeowner's preference.

After checking for any last-minute details, we called the homeowner back into the room. She loved the shower's new look and thanked us for enhancing the grout's protection. She also promised to recommend our services to her friends and family in Somerset.

Here are the recommendations that our crew shared with the client at the end of the appointment: First, we told her that replacing generic solutions with pH-neutral cleaners would significantly upgrade her cleaning routine, as shown by our results during the restoration. For instance, Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner makes it easier for homeowners to remove embedded mold and soap scum so you can keep the dirt from spreading without wasting hours of your day. Our product's composition also rules out the worst side effects of soap-based cleaners because no harsh ingredients are corroding the grout, and no toxic fumes invade your bathroom area.

Our second tip is to use non-abrasive tools like a towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee. These tools reach the dirt between the tiles much more easily, and you won't be forced to scrub too hard, potentially risking damage to the ceramic.

Lastly, our techs shared a general reminder to open the windows and doors throughout the day. Bathroom surfaces, in particular, are prone to gathering mold in a relatively short time just from their constant exposure to moisture. Ensuring constant fresh air circulation also preserves your shower's good looks and structural integrity.

Sir Grout Western New Jersey brings the ultimate solution to revamp your shower surfaces.
