It's impossible to feel at ease inside a soiled shower. A homeowner in Fort Myers resonated with this sentiment each time she attempted to restore her shower and it ended in nothing. She couldn't stand the large black spot on the shower floor, and cleaning the grout got more difficult as the stains kept spreading on the surface.

Shower Floor and Walls Before and After a Tile Cleaining in Forth Myers
The homeowner knew that her method wasn't working, but she was unsure about what to do next until one of her neighbors recommended Sir Grout SW Florida. After checking the results in our picture gallery, she felt optimistic for the first time in weeks, so she scheduled an appointment online, eager to get assistance from our tile cleaning service in Fort Myers.

Our specialists didn't disappoint. On the scheduled date, they went to her house first time in the morning, arriving an identified vehicle that the homeowner recognized right away. They started their inspection after she led them to the master bathroom, and immediately noticed the largest stains on the floor, the corners, and on the edge of the shower seat. On the walls, the tiles' design concealed many of the marks, but that didn't keep the shower from looking dull and lifeless.

During their evaluation, our crew confirmed that the sealant had faded from all the grout lines, so there was a lot of damage to the joints and the floor's grout. They explained that the minerals in the water corrode hard surfaces, opening their pores to all sorts of external elements. The homeowner was surprised to hear that many of the cleaners she was familiar with also added to the problem by trapping the dirt under a soapy film until it got stuck. The solution was to deep clean the shower with Sir Grout's special equipment before sealing the walls. The homeowner was grateful for their offer and immediately asked about the possibility of setting the appointment on the next day.

So, our experts returned to her home less to restore the shower. They started by protecting the stall with clear plastic and masking tape, and began spreading a permeating cleaner around every part of the shower. As the product took effect, our techs scrubbed off the dirt and used a vapor cleaner to eliminate all traces of mold from harder-to-reach surfaces.

Next, they regrouted the floor's grout and the horizontal seam after removing the loose caulk. To do this, they installed water-resistant epoxy grout in the space between the tiles so the floor would be better protected against the effects of wear and tear. When it was time to work on the wall, our crew applied sealant to enhance its protection and prevent other instances of embedded dirt.

The client was amazed with the result and she thanked our specialists for providing such high-quality services. She was particularly grateful for our work on the floor since she'd missed the tiles' elegant design.

Here are the tips our specialists shared at the end of their visit: First, they recommended using pH-neutral cleaners for the maintenance of bathroom surfaces. Unlike most store-bought products, Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner removes mold and soap scum in minutes without subjecting hard surfaces to chemical ingredients. This means that there's no risk of discoloration on the tiles, and the sealant can stay on the grout for much longer. Next, our techs recommended using only non-abrasive tools like a towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee. These tools provide more precision on harder-to-reach surfaces, and they won't scratch the tiles if you happen to scrub too hard.

Last but not least, shower surfaces are constantly exposed to moisture, so good indoor ventilation is the most important. We recommend opening the bathroom door and all the windows nearby at least a few hours a day to keep the air from becoming stale. It also helps to wipe out any pools of water sitting on the shower floor. Less dampness results in fewer instances of mold.
