Our Grout Cleaning Company Gave This Ceramic Shower in Wilmington a Brand-New Look

July 10, 2024

A homeowner in Wilmington was used to having a clean, hygienic shower so, when his cleaning routine stopped being effective, he was the first to notice. Despite his best efforts to have the shower cleaned, the deterioration persisted, with yellow stains that spread from the seams on all sides.


Luckily, he came across Sir Grout of New Castle County not long after, while looking for cleaning tips online. The idea of contacting a professional had already crossed his mind, and the owner was ready for a change after getting disappointing results for weeks on end. He gave us a call to ask for more information about our grout cleaning services in Wilmington, DE, and our agent cleared out all his doubts before helping him set the date for an in-home consultation.

Our techs arrived at the owner's place a few days later, just as scheduled during the call. The homeowner thanked them for their visit and led them to the master shower, where they quickly determined that no conventional cleaning approach would remedy the problem. The grout lines on the walls were in rough shape, and parts of the caulk had gone loose after absorbing water and soap for weeks. Our experts told the client that they could return later that week to perform a multi-step restoration process and he agreed after they concluded their assessment.

So, they returned a few days later with all of the essential equipment to complete the restoration. Cleaning the shower with Sir Grout's surface-safe cleaners was the first step. Our crew stripped each surface to eliminate all the dirt, grime, and soap scum. They also steam cleaned the shower to ensure the same result on harder-to-reach surfaces.

For the next step, they used Sir Grout's patented ColorSeal to seal every grout line. Our acrylic-based sealant is a long-term solution to maintain immaculate grout in the busiest parts of a home, including showers, bathroom floors, kitchen counters, etc. This sealant comes in a variety of colors and guarantees the most attractive appearance while preventing the development of mold, fungi, and mildew.

The owner was impressed by the results and had nothing but praise after seeing the grout's transformation. Each corner of the ceramic shower was clean, and it was a relief to get rid of all the issues that compromised the bathroom's hygiene in the past. After such results, the homeowner was already planning to give us glowing reviews online and in front of his closest friends.

At the end of the appointment, our specialists gave him some advice on how to make cleaning more efficient in the long run. They started by recommending pH-neutral cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner to maintain a spotless surface without damaging the grout and tiles.

Showers are constantly susceptible to wear and tear due to their exposure to water. If soap-based solutions are used on the same area too often, it's not easy to undo the damage later on. Our soap-free product effectively removes dirt, grime, and soap scum and leaves a shower looking amazing for hours.

Another important tip: Use a squeegee, a towel, or a terry cloth rag to get smoother surfaces without scraping the tiles. If you make a habit of wiping the residue after using the shower, you can prevent mold, unpleasant odors, and other problems. This isn't the only way to reduce mold and mildew formation. It also helps to keep the room well-ventilated throughout the day, so it doesn't hurt to open the windows and doors from time to time.
