Our Grout Cleaning Experts in Naples, FL Fully Restored This Dirty Floor in Just One Day

May 25, 2018

Many homeowners ask themselves, what is the secret to clean-looking tile floors? The answer is simple: Clean grout. Unfortunately, keeping the grout lines pristine and spotless is not an easy chore. Tile is resistant to dirt and stains, but grout is porous and easily absorbs dirt and liquids. The wear and tear the grout between the tiles receives depends on where it is installed. For example, in the kitchen it could be a combination of food stains and general foot traffic. Over time, grout becomes stained, giving the surface an unsightly appearance. Unlike tile, grout is not stain-proof or waterproof. For this reason, spills from juices or other liquids can discolor the grout lines. When the grout is permanently stained, the muddy, darkish color will remain even after regular cleaning. Our next client was having these issues when she decided to contact our grout cleaning professionals in Naples, FL.


A housewife from Naples, FL was getting ready to receive guests for a charity event she was hosting over the holidays. She asked her daughters to help with the cleaning around the house and they began performing the chores. They started washing and scrubbing, trying to get rid of the dirt and grime. Despite their best effort, the condition of the grout didn't improve. The young girls notified their mother of the issue. She decided to call her sister to see if she had any suggestions that might help.

Her sister, who always read home improvement magazines, suggested some DIY methods. She recommended cleaning the grout with a mixture of baking soda and water. She took her sister's advice and began scrubbing the grout lines with the paste she made. As instructed, she rinsed the surface with hot water and mopped the remaining moisture. This chore took almost all day. Unfortunately, there were no positive changes in the grout lines. The unsuccessful result was disappointing and the housewife was frustrated. Her daughters proposed looking for professional assistance. She agreed and began the search.

She went online and searched for the best grout cleaning company in Naples, FL. In the top results, she found Sir Grout SW Florida and decided to check out our site. She carefully browsed everything on the homepage and our picture gallery caught her attention. The pictures showcased the professionalism of our work and the magnificent results we provide our customers. She was immediately impressed with the results we had achieved on floors with similar issues. After reading the comments from previous satisfied clients who certified us as a leading company in hard surface restoration, she decided to schedule a free in-home consultation by filling out a "Request a Quote" form.

We arrived on the appointed date for the evaluation of the floor and to offer the most effective solution for the problem. After greeting the owner, we proceeded with the assessment. At first glance, we noticed the grout lines suffered from accumulation of dirt and grime. Because of this, the grout had acquired a darkish color, giving the floor a dirty appearance. This was caused by foot traffic, improper cleaning methods, and harsh products. The lack of sealant was also noticeable. We explained to the owner that this left the grout exposed to all sorts of damage from external agents. Any spill could easily stain the unsealed grout lines. We informed her that restoring and cleaning the grout couldn't be done with conventional means. This task required professional tools, methods, and techniques.

We offered a grout cleaning service to get rid of all the dirt and grime using our experienced techniques and exclusive products. Everything we use is effective and safe for the grout and tiles, producing only the best results possible. We would also seal the grout lines using our top-notch ColorSeal. This unique sealant is water-proof, stain-proof, and it provides protection against mold and mildew in areas with high moisture and humidity. It also boosts the appearance of the surface by giving the grout a unique color. We assured her that after our work, her floor would look brand-new, and with the right maintenance, the result would last for years to come. She was happy with our assessment and the solution we proposed and proceeded to set up a date for the job.

A few days later, we returned to our client's house ready to begin the restoration of the floor. It was a process that required professional techniques and high-quality products. This remarkable procedure consisted of several steps:

• We cleaned the surface using our exclusive tile and grout cleaner along with a high-speed, gentle scrubber until there was no trace of dirt and grime left. The product we used is pH-neutral and won't cause any harm to the grout or tiles. Once this process was completed, the entire floor had a renewed appearance.
• Cleaning the old, dirty, muddy grout and performing the necessary repairs. We painstakingly worked on the entire floor until all the grout lines were pristine and spotless. We used our professional tools and techniques to ensure optimal and long-lasting results.
• Sealing the grout lines with our unique and exceptional ColorSeal. Our top tier sealant offers protection against water, stains, mold, and mildew, all while giving the grout a brand-new look. ColorSeal comes in a wide range of colors suitable for any surface. Our sealing process not only enhances the appearance of the surface, it makes cleaning routines easier and faster.

We thoroughly performed all the steps on the entire surface. When we completed the process, the floor had been renovated. It looked pristine and charming. All the grout lines had a beautiful, uniform color and the tiles looked clean and free of dirt. The beauty of our client's floor had been completely restored. This feat could have only been accomplished with our team's professional techniques and our exclusive, high-quality products.

We then invited the owner to see the results of our work. She was delighted to see that her floor had regained its beauty. Our performance had gone beyond her expectations and she stated that from that point on, Sir Grout SW Florida would be her company of choice for any hard surface restoration she might need in the future. After thanking us, she said she would certainly recommend our services to all her friends, family, and neighbors. Our high- quality products and skillful procedures ensure long term results. We also take time to train our clients on how to perform proper maintenance on their surface.

Before leaving, as we always do with all our clients, we gave the owner some recommendations and suggestions on how to perform proper maintenance and keep her floor in great condition for a long time. We recommended using pH-neutral, soap-free cleaners because these cleaners don't leave residue and won't cause any damage to the grout. We also recommended keeping the surface dry. Spills shouldn't be left lingering on the floor for long periods of time. If any spill occurs, it should be removed immediately using a towel or a terry cloth. We asked that she avoids using steel wools or other abrasive tools because they can scratch the tiles. Also, excessive scrubbing is not necessary after ColorSeal is applied. The surface will be cleaned with minimal effort.

We do not recommend using soap-based or acidic cleaners. These products are harsh and can deteriorate the grout. They leave residue that is harmful for the grout lines and can stain or even break them. This can lead to more severe issues, such as water leakage. Also, we suggest avoiding dirty mops when cleaning the floor. Rinsing a dirty mop into the cleaning solution leads to grime build-up. For this reason, only clean mops should be used.
These easy to follow recommendations, our experienced service, and high-quality products guarantee safe and effective cleaning routines.
