A Top-Notch Tile Sealing in Tucson Gave This Porcelain Pool Deck a Revamped New Look and a Resilient Protective Shield

September 27, 2021

A couple from Tucson, AZ, was hosting a party to celebrate their anniversary. The event was taking place in their backyard, near the pool. Everything was going according to plan, but they found a problem with the pool deck's porcelain tiles. The surface had an unsightly appearance. The owners were unhappy with this situation and tried regular cleaning. Unfortunately, nothing seemed to work. As a last resort, they used some DIY methods they found online, but despite their best effort, they noticed no positive results.


Since they needed a quick solution, the owners decided to hire professionals. While they were searching for a hard surface restoration company, one of their friends came to visit, and thankfully, he was a loyal Sir Grout Tucson client. He highly recommended our Tucson Tile Sealing services, saying we had done an amazing job restoring his master shower. Following his suggestion, the owners went online to get more information about us on our website. After thoroughly browsing our picture gallery and reading testimonials from our satisfied customers, they called us and asked for a free in-home consultation.

Shortly after their request, we arrived to assess the condition of the pool deck. We immediately noticed the damages to the porcelain tiles. Over the years, the surface had received heavy wear and tear. As a result, it looked run-down and unappealing. As we continued the evaluation, we learned it was necessary to seal the surface. We explained that sealing the tiles was important to prevent future damages. When we finished the assessment, we concluded that regular cleaning wouldn't provide an effective solution. An effective restoration would require Sir Grout's hard surface expertise, our professional restoration methods, and professional equipment. We proposed a tile sealing service to address all the problems, improve the pool deck with a new look, and give the surface a resilient shield. The couple was pleased with our offer, decided to hire us, and we set up a date for the job.

We returned to our client's home as scheduled to restore the porcelain tile pool deck. We began the process by cleaning the surface using our pH-neutral cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Our product is made with the highest quality components and doesn't leave any residue, so it won't cause any damage. It effectively loosens the soiling and our machine scrubs it out. Once the surface was spotless, we continued with the sealing process. For this task, we sealed the grout lines with ColorSeal. Our flagship sealant closes off the absorption of water and wards off damages from dirt, grime, and all other harmful external agents. It also improves the appearance of the surface by giving the grout a vibrant new color.

To finish the job, we applied a coating of MicroGuard. This added a resilient layer of protection that shields the surface from abrasion, staining, and chemical substances. It provides unmatched strength, durability, and wear resistance. It also enhances the surface with a stunningly beautiful new finish. MicroGuard produces long-term results with hydrophobic protection that repels dirt and other debris, resulting in faster and easier cleaning routines. With proper care and maintenance protocol, the coating can last up to five years. When we finished all the steps, the tiles looked amazing and the pool deck had been fully restored. We were ready to show our clients the results.

The couple were extremely happy when they saw the beautiful new look of the surface. They were thrilled because everything looked perfect. After thanking us, they said we had done an impressive job, and assured us they would recommend Sir Grout Tucson to their friends, family, and neighbors.

One of Sir Grout's priorities is to teach our clients how to take care of their surfaces. For this reason, we gave the couple some suggestions for safer and more effective maintenance. We recommended cleaning the surface regularly. When performing this task, it's best to use pH-neutral, soap-free cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product is easy to use, non-toxic, and safe for everyone in the house, including pets. Avoid using soap-based cleaners or substances that contain acidic properties. These products are harsh and can harm the surface. They leave a residue that can cause staining, discoloration, and other signs of deterioration.

When brushing the pool deck, use a stiff brush. We recommended using a stiff-bristled broom to scrub the cleaning solution. Scrub in different directions to prevent wearing out the same spot. Never use wire brushes or scouring pads. These tools can scratch the tiles. Once the scrubbing and cleaning are done, rinse down the area with clean water. For better results, use a regular garden hose instead of a power washer.
