Our Grout Cleaning Techs Restored the Beauty of a Floor in Fairfax Station

December 10, 2022

A homeowner in Fairfax Station planned to get the best cleaning services to modernize his floor. Different factors had kept the homeowner from hiring a surface restoration service for months, but the floor's good looks hadn't suffered until a few weeks before he contacted our techs. At that point, his cleaning routine had stopped having an effect, leaving layers of dirt in plain sight. It was impossible to ignore how the black grout lines affected the room's appearance, on top of bringing additional concerns. The homeowner guessed that the sealant had worn off, but he had no way of knowing if there were cracks hidden under the soiled surface.


He and his family decided to make the best of the situation and set out to find the best Fairfax Station grout cleaning company to make the floors meet his cleaning standards. He found Sir Grout Washington DC Metro and it was a smooth sailing from there. After marveling at our picture gallery and reading accounts from previous customers, the homeowners called our specialists to request an in-home evaluation.

A few days later, our techs visited the homeowner's place to look at the floor. The black grout hard to miss as it stood out like sore thumb against the white tiles. As a whole, the floor's surface looked dull and lifeless, and the products used during the cleaning routine seemed to become less effective every day. When our specialists asked the homeowner about it, he named several soap-based formulas that had been used at different points to get the dirt off the grout. Our specialists explained that these products wear down the grout's sealant while getting external elements embedded on the grout pores. After confirming there was no permanent damage to the grout, our specialists gave a rundown of Sir Grout's restoration process. They needed to get all the dirt off the grout before sealing the surface, recoloring the grout lines to give the best impression. At the end of the inspection, the homeowner scheduled a new appointment with our crew.

Our techs came back to his house a few days later for the restoration. They started by cleaning the floor with a pH-neutral cleaner and a high-speed scrubbing machine. Our product guarantees the most thorough results while removing soil, grease, dust specs, mold, mildew, and other stains. It gets the dirt loose after only a few minutes and eliminates all the marks without adding any other products into the mix.

The next step involved sealing all the grout lines with ColorSeal. This powerful sealant creates a protective layer that wards off all sorts of elements and substances to the point that it protects the grout from gradual exposure to UV rays. It doesn't demand any extra effort to keep the grout looking its best. Following the homeowner's request, our specialists recolored the grout to perfectly match the tiles, and the result really brought life back into the room.

The client and his family were invited back into the room just as our crew finished buffing the floors for the last time. The whole household was thrilled by the floors look, marveling at how the clean grout actually made the floor look larger and more stylish. They all promised to recommend our restoration services all over Fairfax Station and thanked our crew for their excellent service.

Our specialists ended the appointment with some tips that would help the homeowner get better results in his cleaning routine. They recommended using a pH-neutral cleaner Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner to clean the floors, countertops, and other hard surfaces. Most soap-based cleaners create a foamy film that gradually gets the dirt embedded in the grout pores, adding many complications to the cleaning process while causing long-lasting surface damage. Our cleaner removes all these concerns and, more importantly, enhances the results to keep tiles and grout looking amazing at all times. Its effectiveness remains through countless stains without weakening the sealant's protection. Our techs also recommended to avoid abrasive tools that could leave scratches on the tiles, instructing the client to use a mop, a towel, or a terry cloth to scrub off new stains. To prevent the effects of moisture buildup, they told the client to open the windows and doors, which would help the circulation of fresh air inside the house.
