Top-Notch Caulking Services in Houston: Providing the Most Effective Solution to Remove Mold from Showers

January 23, 2020

A family contacted Sir Grout Houston because cleaning their shower had become very difficult. They consistently followed regular cleaning routines, but they could never get rid of the mold in the grout lines and the corner joints. Determined to solve the problem, the owners looked for solutions online. After their search, they decided to try some DIY methods that seemed useful. They tried those methods, but the results were not positive.


Frustrated by the negative outcome, they decided to hire professionals. Luckily one of her neighbors recommended Sir Grout Houston. He told them we were the best hard surface restoration company in town. The owners followed his advice and gave us a call. They explained the situation and asked for a free in-home consultation. Thanks to our Houston Caulking Services, our experts were able to remove all the mold and give the surface a brand-new appearance.

A few days after their call, we sent one of our crews to their house to assess the condition of the shower. After meeting the owners, our experts began the inspection. They immediately noticed the caulking around the tub had problems. It was harboring mold and mildew. The grout lines on the walls were damaged as well. They were full of dirt and had acquired a darkish tone. Heavy wear and tear in conjunction with improper cleaning methods had led to this deterioration. Our team also noticed the surface needed sealing. It was necessary to address this issue because it was exposed to dirt, grime, water, and all other external agents. When our experts finished the evaluation, they concluded the condition of the shower wouldn't improve with regular cleaning methods. Our experts could remove all the blemishes and revamp the appearance of the shower with Sir Grout's caulking service. The owners were happy with the assessment and decided to hire our team.

Sir Grout Houston's experts returned to the house to begin the restoration. Our techs started by cleaning the surface. For this task, they used Sir Grout's top of the line cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Unlike store-bought products, our cleaner is pH-neutral and has an enhanced formula that can help inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, mold and microorganisms. Once the shower was spotless, our team repaired the grout lines using professional diamond saws. They thoroughly worked on the entire surface and restored the grout. After that, our crew needed to address the damaged caulking around the tub.

Since the caulk was moldy and badly damaged, our team replaced it with a resilient epoxy solution. The epoxy variation isn't porous and has a hard composition. Because of this, it's resistant to mold and mildew. To finish the job, our experts sealed the grout lines with Sir Grout's ColorSeal. Our flagship sealant wards off dirt, grime, and all other external agents. It also gives the grout an improved appearance and a vibrant new color. It comes in a wide range of colors, allowing the owners to match the tiles with the grout. When our technicians finished the process, the shower looked beautiful and had long-lasting protection against heavy wear and tear.

Our team invited the owners to see the results. They were very pleased with the renewed appearance of their shower. The quality of the restoration surpassed all their expectations. After thanking our team, the owners assured them they would recommend Sir Grout Houston to their friends, family, and neighbors.

Tiled surfaces subjected to heavy daily use require proper maintenance and care. For this reason, our team took some time and gave the owners some recommendations to keep the shower looking its best. To minimize the accumulation of dirt and grime it's necessary to follow a weekly cleaning routine. For optimal results, use only pH-neutral soap-free cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product doesn't leave residues and it has ingredients that can help that provide protection against bacteria and fungi. It is also non-toxic and safe for everyone in the house, including pets. Soap-based cleaners can cause damage because they leave residue that seeps into the grout lines. This blemishes the grout and can lead to other issues like mold and mildew growth. Substances with acidic properties are also harmful and can produce negative effects on the surface.

Mold and mildew are a constant threat in damp areas like showers. Proper ventilation is necessary to keep the shower fungi-free. To allow the moisture to flow freely, our team recommends leaving the door ajar or a window open. After using the shower, dry the surface using a squeegee, a towel, or a terry cloth rag. Squeegeeing is a great way to get rid of dirt particles.
