Our Tile and Grout Cleaners Delivered Impressive Results After Revamping This Shower in Newark

September 11, 2025

A homeowner in Newark couldn't stand the appearance of his master shower, but nothing he did seemed to work against the dirt that kept spreading across the stall. Regular cleaners were completely ineffective, and the marks on the walls got larger every day, so the owner knew there was no time to waste.


After years of hearing great things about Sir Grout of New Castle County, he knew he could expect the best professional assistance from our tile and grout cleaners in Newark. Still, the owner wanted to learn more about our services before contacting our crew, so he visited our website to gather more information. There, he read many success stories and perused our picture gallery until he felt he had a solid grasp of our work, so he didn't hesitate to get in touch with our specialists.

We visited his house later that week, as scheduled via the website's contact form. The client took us to the shower, and our techs immediately began the evaluation. While mineral residue covered many parts of the ceramic surface, the wall under the faucet was the most affected, with a large orange stain that stood out in all the wrong ways. We also inspected the grout to rule out any chances of structural damage, taking note of the mold that gathered on the seams.


It was obvious that the shower had been exposed to a high concentration of minerals, and we learned that chemical-based cleaners had also played a part after asking some standard questions about the client's cleaning methods. As our techs explained, using these products regularly only entails subjecting tile and grout surfaces to harsh ingredients, and this is a considerable risk when you're already struggling against the calcium residue on your shower surfaces.

The good news is that Sir Grout of New Castle County has tailored its restoration process to preserve tile and grout more effectively, without ever exposing the surface to abrasive treatment. By the end of the inspection, the client trusted our expertise, so he fully agreed with our plan for the restoration when our techs gave him a rundown of the process.

Following his request, we returned to work on the shower the next day. Our crew prepared the area and cleaned every surface with a high-quality formula and a 275-degree vapor steamer, removing the embedded mold between the tiles and all the efflorescence on the walls. We scrubbed the ceramic by hand until all the tiles were uniform, and our techs were ready to work on the grout.

We started applying ColorSeal to all the grout lines on each wall. This way, our experts ensured that the grout had the best protection to repel soap, mineral residue, mold, grime, and other elements. Our sealant withstands liquids and external elements for months and is available in multiple colors to suit any design. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain from having it on your grout.

Last but not least, we installed epoxy grout on the vertical seams to counter the effects of moisture buildup. Unlike cement-based grout, our epoxy solution doesn't let any liquids seep into the surface, so you don't have to worry about the deterioration that follows when too much water seeps behind the tiles.

Our team finished the restoration in record time, and the homeowner was ecstatic when he saw the result. The shower looked terrific, and the grout complemented the tiles beautifully, completing the walls' modern look. The owner thanked us for our hard work and promised to tell more people in Newark about the quality of our restoration services.

While getting ready to leave the client's home, our specialists gave him additional cleaning tips. Bathroom surfaces like showers and vanity tops require constant care, so it helps to have the right equipment at hand. It's common for many homeowners to mix different products to increase their cleaning power, but with pH-neutral cleaners, you can save time and provide more rewarding results. Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner will be the perfect asset to your household's cleaning routine, helping prevent the accumulation of dirt in the most challenging parts of the home. On top of simplifying hard surface maintenance, our cleaner is free of toxic ingredients, so homeowners can clean their living spaces without worrying about the effects of chemical fumes on children, guests, and pets.

Our team also recommended using a squeegee, a towel, or a terry cloth to scrub off dirt and the stickiness that often permeates shower surfaces. Likewise, cleaning tools should be washed in advance to prevent dirt from accumulating between the tiles.

Our crew suggested daily opening the windows and doors to counter mold growth around damp spaces. Proper indoor ventilation is the surest way to prevent moisture buildup, and it can save you many headaches in the future because it's much easier to stop the dirt from spreading across different parts of your bathroom.
