Cape Coral Grout Sealing Service Fully Restores This Beautiful Ceramic Shower

September 30, 2021

This homeowner in Cape Coral had trouble making her shower look clean after finding grime embedded in the floor and walls. Her usual cleaning regime hadn't stopped the soap scum from sticking to the grout lines, and the other methods she tried after identifying the problem had also led to a dead-end. It was upsetting for her to see her shower take such an unhygienic look after a relatively short amount of time, so she could only hope that no permanent damage had ruined her grout and tiles for good.


When the homeowner brought up the shower problem to her friend group, someone recommended contacting Sir Grout SW Florida. A couple of her friends had hired our restoration services in the past, so they could give an accurate summary of our methods. The homeowner could easily find any other relevant details online and, by the end of her research, she was sure she had found the best Cape Coral grout sealing company. Only a few days after she filled out the "Request a Quote" form on our website, our crew was at her place to evaluate her shower.

Upon inspection, we found that dirt buildup had deteriorated several parts of the grout. A combination of water, shower products, and generic cleaners had also worn down the ceramic tiles to the point that they looked muddy and unappealing. While we reassured the client that there was no irreparable damage, we also explained that the grout required a thorough restoration process, especially after confirming that the sealant had worn out. As a result, there was nothing standing between the grout and a myriad of outside elements that could easily slip into its pores. We told the client that specialized equipment was needed to clean and seal the grout, so she agreed to hire our services and have her shower restored at a later date.

On the appointed date, our crew began the restoration process using a pH-neutral cleaner and a high-speed scrubber to remove the dirt on the shower without risking damage to the grout and tiles. They steam cleaned each nook and cranny to clear out soap residue, mold, and mildew while protecting the shower's surface against the growth of harmful microorganisms. At this point, the tiles looked ten times brighter, and there was no trace of grime in sight. Now that there was nothing dirtying the area, our specialists could start the restoration of the grout.

They removed the old caulk from the grout joints and repaired the areas where the grout was coming apart. To protect the grout from future damage and restore its good looks, our crew applied Sir Grout's ColorSeal all over the grout lines. Our signature sealant is the best protection to keep mold, fungi, soap, and water from seeping into the grout's pores, preventing structural problems on your hard surfaces. Our crew sealed the grout all over the shower's wall and floor, and the result made it stand out beautifully against the ceramic tiles. All that was left was applying a coat of our special epoxy grout on the shower's horizontal and vertical grout joints. It would make their surface more resistant to the constant effects of moisture while providing long-lasting protection for the whole shower area.

The client saw the transformation as soon as she stepped back into the room. The repaired grout made the shower looked brand-new, and having the grout sealed was a huge source of relief when it came to upkeeping its elegant appearance. After thanking our crew, the homeowner said she would recommend Sir Grout SW Florida to everyone she knew.

Now that their work was done, our specialists could share some tips with the homeowner. They recommended switching from generic cleaners to soap-free products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our pH-neutral cleaner leaves no toxic residues that could be dangerous after constant exposure. It also brings countless benefits for your hard surfaces, preventing the growth of fungi and removing dirt, mold, and mildew without wearing down your floors and walls. Showers are more susceptible to stains because of all the moisture that dwells in them, which is why proper ventilation is such a useful addition to enhance the effects of soap-free cleaners. Other recommendations included staying away from abrasive cleaning tools that could leave marks on the tiles, with towels, terry cloth rags, and squeegees working as viable alternatives.
