Our Specialists Made These Floors in Apopka Shine with the Best Grout Sealing Service

August 31, 2022

Public restrooms are among the most challenging settings when it comes to hard surface preservation. They're exposed to alarming amounts of dirt, not to mention the damage caused by foot traffic and chemical products spilled around their surfaces. This was a challenge that a business owner from Apopka faced time and time again. For years, he had dedicated special attention to the maintenance of all surfaces until it became impossible to work through all the dirt with the resources at his disposal.


In both men's and women's restrooms, the floor's grout had been covered by dirt from end to end. The blackened grout inevitably affected the bathroom's hygienic appearance, especially as the tiles also started looking worse for wear over time. Concerned about the lack of results with his cleaning routine, the homeowner resolved to contact the specialists at Sir Grout Orlando after running into our website online. It didn't take him long to decide that our Apopka grout sealing was the best option, and this decision was confirmed by our specialists' quick response. They were at the owner's establishment as scheduled to inspect the floors in the two restrooms.

Their inspection showed no cracks or severe structural damage, but the grout still needed a lot of work. There was a thick layer of dirt embedded in the grout lines that no generic cleaner could get off. As our specialists explained, these cleaners only make it easier for the grout to collect dirt because they create a foamy film around the grout's porous surface, trapping soil and liquids within. The best approach was to clean the whole floor with Sir Grout's professional equipment and seal the grout. This way, it would remain spotless for months and withstand the effects of wear and tear without losing its good looks.


The homeowner booked a new appointment for the restoration, and our specialists returned to his business a few days later. They completed the same restoration process in each of the two public restrooms on the same day. For the first step, they cleaned the floors with a high-grade, pH-neutral cleaner and removed all the loose dirt with a high-speed scrubber. Our cleaner's formula guarantees the best results in record time, eliminating dirt, oil, soap scum, mold, mildew, and other stains after sitting on the surface for a few minutes. When our techs completed this part of the process, no marks were left on the floors, and all the dirt had been eliminated from the grout.

Then, our specialists applied a coat of ColorSeal on all the grout lines, ensuring the best protection during the most hectic hours of the day. Our acrylic-based sealant wards off soil and fluids. It also makes the grout lines look ten times better. Now, the grout had a nice beige color that went perfectly with the tiles' design.

Our techs ended the restoration by soaking the tiles with a coat of Microguard and giving the floors a final buffing to bring out their shine. When it was the client's turn to check the results, he was amazed. Our specialists joined him as he walked through the two restrooms, and he took his time admiring the beauty of his grout and tiles. He thanked our specialists for such high-quality service and promised to tell more people in his industry about the advantages that Sir Grout Orlando could bring.

Before leaving the establishment, our specialists shared additional tips with the homeowner to help him get better results from his cleaning routine. Their first recommendation was to stop using soap-based cleaners and acidic formulas on all hard surfaces as these products could cause discoloration and wear off the sealant later down the line. pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner are the best alternative to clean grout and ceramic tile. Our techs also recommended using non-abrasive tools like mops, towels, and terry cloths to wipe the many stains that public restrooms tend to collect throughout the day. With the help of neutral cleaners, these tools can easily remove the dirt without scratching the tiles along the way. Lastly, our specialists reminded the client to continue prioritizing the room's indoor ventilation system and to instruct the cleaning staff against using chemical products on the floor.

There's no better way to optimize hard surface maintenance than with the help of Sir Grout Orlando. Our specialists are always ready to provide the best services, making a run-down surface look as good as new with the most reliable cleaning and sealing method in the industry.
