Our Tile and Grout Cleaners Successfully Restored the Floor at this Restaurant Kitchen in Wilmington

February 22, 2024

A dirty kitchen in a restaurant is a big problem, and it can be a huge detriment to the business. These surfaces endure constant use and require regular maintenance. However, it's necessary to follow certain procedures to achieve optimal results. The owner of a restaurant in Wilmington, DE, noticed their kitchen was in poor condition. She was not happy with this situation, and without wasting any time, she decided to look for a professional hard surface restoration company.


Thankfully, the owner of the restaurant found Sir Grout of New Castle County with a quick internet search. She typed Wilmington Tile and Grout Cleaners on her search engine, and the top results led her to our website. After thoroughly browsing our picture gallery, and reading some of our blogs, she was convinced we could help. Hoping for a fast solution, she filled out the "Schedule a Free Quote" form and asked for a free inspection.

Following her request, we visited the restaurant and performed the assessment. After the brief introductions, we proceeded with the evaluation. As soon as we entered the kitchen, we noticed the issues. The grout lines were full of dirt, acquiring a dark tone, and the tiles had an unsightly appearance. Because of this, the entire floor looked run-down. With a closer inspection, we spotted another problem: the grout was unsealed. This was a big issue because this common mixture is porous and it was exposed to all sorts of external agents. To prevent further decay, it's necessary to apply a special sealant.

When we finished we had the insight to discuss a solution with the owner. Since we had determined common methods wouldn't be effective, this job would require Sir Grout's professional process and top-notch equipment. We proposed a tile and grout cleaning service to address all the damages, improve the condition of the surface, and give the floor a brand-new appearance. The offer met the owner's expectations, so she immediately hired us for the job.

A few days after the inspection, we returned to the property, ready to begin the restoration. Our process offers the best results because it follows a series of steps. We started by cleaning the surface using our exclusive cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Our product is made with top-quality ingredients and offers many benefits. Unlike store-bought products, our cleaner doesn't leave a residue, so it won't cause any damage. After scrubbing out the soiling, we continued with the grout repairs.

When the grout is badly damaged, cracked, or discolored, regular cleaning is ineffective. Because of this, the task becomes troublesome, and many homeowners find it daunting, tedious, and time-consuming. Sir Grout of New Castle County, on the other hand, has the tools and the expertise to easily deal with all these issues. We worked on the entire surface, giving the grout lines a complete overhaul. The next step was the sealing process.

To ensure long-term results and unmatched protection, we used ColorSeal. Sir Grout's flagship sealant has no competition. With its resilient composition, our product wards off dirt, grime, and other external agents reducing deterioration, and making cleaning routines easy and fast. Our sealers also provide UV defense, for areas subjected to solar damage. ColorSeal revamps the surface, giving the grout a vibrant color and a brand-new appearance. Our clients can choose from a wide range of colors, so they can match the tiles with the grout. As expected, the restoration was a success, the surface had been fully revamped, and the floor looked phenomenal.

With our goal accomplished, it was time to call our client and show her the results. The renewed appearance of the floor gave the owner a pleasant surprise. She was beyond thrilled because the surface looked better than ever. After thanking us, she said our performance surpassed all her expectations, and before we left, she inquired about our commercial program, to schedule regular maintenance.

Heavy foot traffic can lead to quick deterioration. For this reason, surfaces in busy areas, like a restaurant's kitchen, require proper care. To keep these floors in top condition, it's necessary to follow Sir Grout's recommendations. We suggested setting up a weekly cleaning routine to prevent the accumulation of dirt. Perform this chore using only pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product is soap-free and easy to use. It is also non-toxic and safe for everyone.

We don't recommend using soap-based cleaners or substances with acidic properties. These products leave a foam that seeps into the grout, which can cause stains, discoloration, and several other issues. They also contain harsh agents that can have negative effects on the surface. Apply the cleaning solution using a clean mop and let the floor dry completely before entering the room again. Never use abrasive tools as they can leave scratches behind.
