Our Techs Restored a Kitchen Floor in Seattle with the Most Thorough Grout Cleaning Service

August 31, 2023

It's hard to keep up with the amount of dirt that's likely to slip around our kitchen surfaces, and the wrong cleaning products only make the process more of a hassle. A Seattle resident had been struggling with her kitchen floor for weeks, trying to get some shine out of the tiles and the dirt off the floor's grout. During that time, she tried multiple cleaning products, sometimes using two or more cleaners in quick succession. She'd hoped to get a breakthrough at some point, but when her efforts made no change on the floor's rundown look, the homeowner decided to contact our Seattle grout cleaning crew.


She went online looking for an efficient, reliable restoration company in the area, and Sir Grout Seattle checked all her boxes. The homeowner was impressed by our website's content, especially the beauty of the different surfaces in our picture gallery. After reading more about our services, the homeowner had no qualms about coming to our specialists with her problem, and she filled out the "Schedule a Free Quote" form to ask for an in-home evaluation.

On the day of the inspection, our techs arrived at the client's home bright and early to look at the kitchen floor. The tiles looked neglected, and the marks gave the floor a very unhygienic appearance. This was worsened by the dirt on the grout. The grout's sealant had faded almost completely, and nearly all the grout lines were darkened by grime, product residue, and constant foot traffic. When the client asked about the lack of results in her cleaning efforts, our specialists explained that most of the formulas she'd used had harsh ingredients that enabled the accumulation of dirt on the grout's pores. Moreover, the chemicals on these products eventually cause more permanent damage, ranging from discoloration to grout deterioration. This particular problem had a simple solution, though. Our techs offered to provide a full restoration with their specialized cleaning and sealing methods. They described the process to the client, who had no trouble scheduling a new appointment after going over some logistic details.

Our techs returned to her home a few days later for the restoration. They started by cleaning the floor thoroughly with a pH-neutral cleaner and a high-speed scrubbing machine. Our product has no match when it comes to removing common kitchen stains caused by water, spills, grease, etc. It also helps keep new stains away for much longer because it has no chemical ingredients that could affect porous surfaces in the long run.

For the next step, our specialists applied ColorSeal on the newly-clean grout. This acrylic-based sealant keeps liquids, mold, mildew, and other elements from slipping into the grout's surface. It also provides the ideal makeover to modernize your floors because it's available in multiple colors to ensure a pleasing result. Our techs used a white sealant to create the perfect combination to make the grout stand out, and the final look was a complete success.

They buffed the floor one more time and called the client back into the room. She was ecstatic as soon as she entered the kitchen area. The floor went from looking drab and dull to becoming the perfect example of elegance. She was particularly impressed by how the grout now made the kitchen look larger and more cheerful, and she couldn't wait to tell her friends and family about the result.

Before ending the appointment, our specialists gave the client additional cleaning pointers to preserve the floor's good look. Instead of using multiple products, our techs recommended using pH-neutral formulas like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product surpasses the effectiveness of soap-based cleaners and other store-bought formulas. It removes the worst stains from grout and tile surfaces without causing discoloration, and homeowners don't have to worry about harsh chemicals wearing down the grout's sealant. Our specialists also recommended cleaning the floor and other kitchen surfaces with a mop, a towel, or a terry cloth. This will make it easier to remove the stickiest stains without risking scratches on the tiles. Lastly, our techs reminded the client about the importance of optimal indoor ventilation. It also helps to pay close attention in case there's some dampness left in the kitchen after cooking. The client welcomed our recommendations and thanked our specialists one more time before they were on their way.
