This Hallway's Ceramic Floor Recovered Its Beauty Thanks to Our Grout Sealing Services in Tucson, AZ

March 13, 2020

When it comes to flooring, most people tend to look for durable cost-effective materials that can withstand the test of time. One such material is ceramic. On top of being resistant against most external agents and heavy foot traffic, ceramic tile is easy to maintain. These qualities have made it a go-to flooring choice for many homeowners, including our most recent customer. Unfortunately, ceramic tiles have one major drawback: grout lines.


A hard-working woman had been living in her home in Tucson for two years. Even though most of the surfaces in her home had a beautiful décor, she always had a soft spot for the hallway's ceramic tile floor. A month prior to our visit, however, she noticed the appearance of the floor's grout had become discolored. Considering she cleaned the floor on a regular basis, she couldn't understand why the fixtures looked the way they did. Frustrated, she called her brother and asked him for advice. She explained to him that no matter which products she used, she couldn't refresh the appearance of the grout lines. After listening to her explanation, her brother assured her the best course of action was to look for grout sealing professionals in Tucson to have the floor's fixtures restored.

Following her brother's advice, the homeowner searched online for a hard surface restoration company. She found Sir Grout Tucson in the top search results. On our website, she watched several video testimonials and browsed the picture gallery. Not only was she pleased with the positive reviews left by previous customers, she also enjoyed seeing how our procedures can improve any surface. Feeling confident in our ability to restore the hallway floor, she filled out the contact form to request a free evaluation and a quote.

A few days later, our team of professionals arrived at the client's home to assess the ceramic surface. Once they saw the floor, they confirmed what the client had told them over the phone. The tiles were in good shape, but the grout lines had gained a dirty appearance. Our experts explained to the client that dirt had accumulated on the fixtures because they hadn't been sealed in a long time. That's why they also had proved difficult to clean. Luckily the damage wasn't severe. The floor was just in dire need of our standard grout cleaning and sealing procedure. Our specialists would seal the floor using our proprietary sealant ColorSeal. The customer agreed to the service and scheduled a date for the job.

Our techs went back to the customer's home on the scheduled day to get the job done. They began the process by cleaning the floor's grout using Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Not only is our flagship cleaning solution pH-neutral, it also contains ingredient that can help keep surfaces free from bacteria and other harmful microorganisms. Once the grout lines were free from dirt and grime, our team carefully inspected the fixtures to ensure they were in good shape. To finish the restoration procedure, our crew coated the floor's grout with ColorSeal. This sealant makes grout resistant against dirt, spills, stains, water, mold, and mildew. It also recolors the fixtures to refresh their appearance.

When they finished, our experts showed the homeowner her newly restored hallway floor. She was amazed. The sealing procedure had transformed the ceramic surface. She thanked our experts for the job and said she would recommend Sir Grout Tucson to anyone in need of hard surface restoration.

Before leaving, our techs gave the client some maintenance tips to help her keep the hallway floor in good condition. They first suggested cleaning the floor regularly using a damp mop and a pH-neutral cleaner like our proprietary product. They also recommended using a dry mop to wipe the leftover moisture away after every cleaning session. These two practices will help prevent dirt accumulation and the overall deterioration of the surface. The homeowner thanked our experts for the tips and said she would be more careful with the floor's maintenance moving forward.
