Our Crew Successfully Revamped a Floor in New Castle With Their Tile Cleaning Services

January 08, 2025

A New Castle resident was set on finding a cleaning solution that could preserve the beauty of his bathroom floor, and he knew that the products he'd been using were not the answer. He managed to remove the worst stains caused by moisture and spills, but it wasn't hard to see where these formulas fell short. The floor's colors looked duller, and the soiled grout overshadowed the tiles' design, even after countless hours of scrubbing.


The owner knew that his cleaners could cause discoloration over time, but he'd tried replacing them with other off-the-counter formulas without getting any improvement. So, he decided to ask a professional's opinion and started looking for a reliable tile cleaning service in New Castle. Early on into his search, he found Sir Grout of New Castle County and started reading more about our services after seeing some of the examples in our picture gallery. Since there was no way to restore the grout's color with regular cleaners, the homeowner contacted our specialists, hoping they could address all the issues that made his floor look so lifeless.

That same week, our specialists visited his home, following the request made by the owner via the website's contact form. During the evaluation, they confirmed that the grout was unsealed and took note of many areas where the tiles looked particularly soiled, particularly near the corners and on the back of the room. On top of exposing hard surfaces to harsh ingredients, generic cleaners leave a soapy residue that makes it harder for homeowners to remove the embedded dirt. This is one of the reasons why unsealed grout surfaces can collect many stains in a relatively short time, especially in areas subjected to moisture and foot traffic.

The best way to deal with the problem was with a thorough cleaning and sealing service, so our crew went over the process with the client before he finally decided to schedule a new appointment for the job.

Our techs were back at the house on the agreed-upon date for the restoration, and they got to work after preparing their equipment inside the bathroom. They used a pH-neutral cleaner and a high-speed scrubber to clean the floor, meticulously removing all traces of dirt on the grout and the ceramic tiles.

Next, they sealed the grout lines as per the client's preference, using a light gray sealant to match the tiles' color scheme. Our flagship ColorSeal works as a protective barrier that keeps dirt and liquids off the grout pores, so it's much easier to remove the stains between the tiles. Its protection works against soap, cosmetic residue, mold, mildew, mud, and other external elements, preserving the grout's uniform color for months on end.

The restoration was complete soon after this part, and our crew invited the client back into the bathroom. The floor looked beautiful, and the homeowner was satisfied with the result, saying that the tiles brought a stylish touch that hadn't been there before.   

Our experts had some additional tips to share before leaving the client's home. To prevent the discoloration of tile surfaces, they started by recommending pH-neutral products, stating that formulas like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner do the job more effectively without weakening the sealant's protection on the grout. Our cleaner works like a charm when it comes to minimizing efforts and improving results. It's effective against common bathroom stains caused by soap and mold, so homeowners can wipe out all traces of dirt with only minimal scrubbing.

Our crew also focused on indoor ventilation as a key element to preserve bathroom surfaces in between your cleaning sessions. Proper air circulation can stop the spread of moisture around the corner joints, the areas hidden by furniture, and other narrow surfaces. Make a habit of opening the windows and doors throughout the day, and chances are your bathroom surfaces stay looking fresh and spotless for much longer.

Lastly, a mop, a towel, or a terry cloth is the best choice to clean tile floors on a regular basis. As our techs told the client, these tools provide all the precision you need to clean harder-to-reach surfaces without risking scratch marks on the tiles. The homeowner listened closely to each recommendation and thanked our crew for their professionalism during their visit. He also promised to spread the word about our services around the people he knew in the area.
