Our Oro Valley Grout Sealing Pros Revamped This Dingy Shower With a Top-Notch Restoration

March 30, 2022

This client from Oro Valley, AZ, was having a difficult time with her shower's maintenance. After years of wear and tear, the surface looked run-down and unappealing. She was unhappy with this situation, and tried to solve the problem, but her cleaning attempts didn't work. Despite her best efforts, she noticed no positive results. Frustrated with the negative outcome, she decided to look for a professional hard surface restoration company. Thankfully, our Oro Valley Grout Sealing experts came to the rescue, providing a long-term solution.


While looking for a hard surface restoration company, she found Sir Grout Tucson's advertisement in a magazine and decided to get more information by visiting our website. After browsing our picture gallery, and reading the positive feedback from our satisfied customers, she was convinced we were the best option. She called us, explained the situation, and asked for a free assessment.

After receiving her request, we visited her house and provided the in-home consultation. The owner welcomed us and promptly showed us the troublesome shower. As we entered, we noticed the problems. The grout had decayed, acquiring a dark tone. When this happens, the entire surface looks dirty and unsanitary. The shower was also affected with mold, which is a more serious concern. With closer inspection, we learned the grout needed sealing. We explained this common mixture is porous and when left unsealed, it can absorb external agents.

Upon reaching a satisfactory conclusion, we had the insight to offer a solution. We had determined regular cleaning wouldn't work, so an effective restoration would require Sir Grout's professional process and top-notch equipment. We proposed a grout sealing service to address all the damages, improve the shower with a revamped look, and give the surface a protective shield. Before providing a quote, we briefly tested the efficacy of our methods. The awesome results fully convinced the owner to hire us.

We returned and began the restoration a few days later. To achieve optimal results, it's necessary to follow a series of steps. First, we cleaned the surface using our exclusive cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Our product is pH-neutral and doesn't contain any harsh properties. It offers many benefits and it won't cause any damage to the tiles or grout. After that, we addressed the mold. To get rid of this fungus, it's essential to remove the spore, otherwise, it returns in a couple of weeks. We used a steam cleaner at high heat to eliminate this threat. Once the shower was spotless, we continued with the grout repairs.

Regular cleaning is not effective against certain damages like stains or discoloration. Because of this, the task becomes a headache for many homeowners. However, we have the tools and the knowledge to fix any issue on this vulnerable component. We worked on the entire surface, giving the grout lines a pristine look. The following step was the sealing process.

After selecting the requested color, we applied a coating of Sir Grout's ColorSeal. Our flagship sealant provides unmatched defense and offers long-lasting results. It wards off dirt, grime, and other external agents, minimizing degradation and making cleaning routines easy and fast. ColorSeal also greatly improves the surface with a uniform color and brand-new appearance. It comes in a wide range of colors, so our clients can choose the most suitable for their surfaces. Our work yielded the expected results, the shower looked fantastic, and the surface was fully protected to endure heavy wear and tear.

We called our client and showed her the results. The owner was very impressed with our work. She was beyond thrilled because everything looked better than she had imagined. After thanking us, she said she would call us for any future projects and assured us she would recommend Sir Grout Tucson to everyone.

Due to constant daily use, showers can deteriorate quickly and require proper care. Following Sir Grout's recommendations is the best way to keep these challenging areas in top condition. We suggested setting a regular cleaning routine. To prevent damages, perform this chore using only soap-free cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner.

Our product doesn't leave any residue and it's made with high-quality ingredients. It is also non-toxic and safe for everyone in the house, including pets. Avoid using soap-based cleaners and substances with acidic properties. These products contain harsh agents and leave foam that seeps into the grout. This can have negative effects on the surface, leading to decay and other issues like stains or discoloration.

It is very important to take measures against mold and mildew growth. These fungi are a threat, posing a health hazard for everyone. To keep this problem at bay, make sure to provide a source of fresh air by leaving the door ajar or window open, keep a light on, and after using the shower, dry the surface with a squeegee, a towel, or a terry cloth rag. Squeegeeing regularly also helps to keep the shower spotless. Bar soaps leave a residue that can produce nasty stains. Liquid soaps, on the other hand, leave no residue, offering an effective solution to this issue.
