Our Grout Sealing Experts Provided Amazing Services To Revive a Tile Floor in Wilmington

February 06, 2025

After several minor renovations in his kitchen area, a Wilmington resident knew professional assistance was needed to improve the floor's appearance. The tiles were stained by grease, soil, debris from the furniture in the area, not to mention the grout's noticeable discoloration. Even minutes after a thorough cleaning session, the floor looked rundown, ruining the homeowner's attempts to modernize that part of the house.


Convinced that he would make no progress with any of the cleaning products he'd used in the past, he went online looking for a professional grout sealing service in Wilmington. He came across Sir Grout of New Castle County and recalled seeing some of his friends recommending our services on social media. This was all the encouragement he needed to learn more, and our user-friendly website gave him all the information he needed. Following thorough research, the homeowner filled out our online form to schedule an appointment with our hard surface restoration team.

They arrived at his house before the end of the week, and the homeowner immediately saw our logo on the vehicle. During the inspection of the kitchen floor, our specialists checked the state of the tiles, worrying about any cracks under the stains. Overall, there were no structural issues, but the floor looked dull and aged by wear and tear. The grout's color changed drastically from one edge of the floor to the area near the door, adding to the stains left around the furniture.

The floor required a thorough cleaning and sealing service, and our techs explained the process to the client after confirming his suspicions about soap-based cleaners. They also tested their cleaning product on the grout to show its effectiveness, so the owner didn't hesitate to hire our services for the restoration.

On the scheduled date, our experts returned to his house in Wilmington and immediately started working on the floor. They soaked the surface with a permeating cleaner and used a high-speed scrubber to remove loose dirt, including all the stains caused by soil and food residue.

Next, they used our flagship sealant to give the grout a much-needed makeover. The owner wanted a light brown to make the grout stand out against the tiles, so our techs recolored the lines accordingly. Our acrylic-based sealant is the perfect solution to restore the grout's beauty after months of exposure to external elements because it's designed to keep its color through hours of foot traffic, spills, and other external factors.

This marked the end of the restoration, and our crew was ready to show the result to the client. He was ecstatic with its new look, particularly the grout's new color and the tiles' pristine appearance. He also promised to recommend our services to show off the floor's transformation when guests were over.

While getting ready to leave the client's house, our experts reviewed some essential steps in a successful cleaning routine. Cleaning high-traffic areas is much more challenging when you only have subpar products. For this reason, we always recommend using pH-neutral formulas like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product removes common stains caused by foot traffic, spills, mold, grime, and more because it combines the best ingredients to guarantee maximum cleaning power. There's no need to add chemical-based solutions or DIY formulas because our cleaner provides all the effectiveness you need. Likewise, homeowners can use it as often as necessary without worrying about contaminating their living spaces with toxic fumes, so it's the ideal solution in more ways than one.

When cleaning tools, we recommend using a clean mop or a towel to clean the floors in less time without scratching the tiles. Steel wools and other abrasive tools may cause much damage, leaving residue in some parts of the grout. Our specialists left the homeowner with a general reminder to open the windows to keep the house well-ventilated, and he promised to follow their recommendations after thanking them again for their service.
