Our Grout Cleaning Techs Made a Kitchen Floor in Great Falls Look Stunning
July 09, 2024
A homeowner in Great Falls, VA, had started to feel like her kitchen floor was a sore spot in her home's perfect layout. No matter where you looked, you could always find dirt on the grout lines, and it wasn't hard to see the stains on the tiles even from a distance. The kitchen took a significant portion of the ground floor, leading to a large dining room area. As such, the homeowner was wary of trying the cleaning tips that some relatives recommended to her, worried about making the problem even more noticeable.She knew she needed to get a professional to look at her floors. Otherwise, she'd stay stuck in a hopeless situation, trying the same cleaners over and over again, all while knowing there'd be no improvement on the grout or the tiles. While looking for a restoration company online, the homeowner came across Sir Grout Washington DC Metro and immediately started to learn as much as she could about our grout cleaning services in Great Falls. In almost no time, she decided to fill out the form to get in touch with our specialists.
Following her request, our techs went to her house the very next day to evaluate the kitchen floor and she welcomed them in right away. All the grout lines were covered in dirt, making the floor look duller and darker. The tiles also looked devoid of life, with dirt embedded in their pores and stains that became more noticeable under the light coming from the windows. Our techs explained to the client that soap-based cleaners create a foamy film that traps the dirt on a surface, opening the grout pores and prompting discoloration on ceramic tiles.
To solve the problem, they offered to clean the kitchen floor with Sir Grout's professional equipment and to seal the grout lines with an acrylic-based sealant that would enhance their protection against wear and tear. The client was okay with this approach and hired our restoration services on the spot.
So, a few days later, our crew returned to her home to work on the kitchen floor. To start the restoration, they soaked the floors with a surface-safe cleaner and removed the loose dirt with a high-speed scrubber. Our product improves cleaning and maintenance on all ends, allowing a quicker process to remove the most stubborn stains. Our specialists went over each and every stain and only began sealing when the tiles and grout were free of dirt.
At this point, they applied ColorSeal on all the grout lines. Our flagship sealant wards off mold, mildew, grime, soil, and liquids, keeping the grout spotless through spills, foot traffic, and everyday household activities. At the client's request, our techs made the grout's color perfectly match the shade of the ceramic tiles, creating a nice effect that transformed the whole floor for the better. Then, they buffed the floor's surface to enhance the tiles' new beauty.
When everything was ready for the client to give her assessment, our specialists called her back into the kitchen. As expected, she was amazed by the results, looking at the clean grout in wonder and praising the floor's lovely appearance. After thanking our specialists for their excellent services, she promised to recommend Sir Grout Washington DC Metro all over Great Falls, VA.
Before leaving the house, our techs shared additional cleaning pointers with the client and the rest of her family. They recommended using pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner for the weekly maintenance of her kitchen surfaces. Unlike bleach and other generic cleaners, our product is free of chemical ingredients that could damage your floor or endanger the people around you. It removes the largest and deepest stains in minutes and doesn't release any harsh fumes after sitting on the floors.
They also told her to wipe any spills and stains as soon as they occur using a mop, a towel, or a terry cloth. Steel wools and other abrasive tools may scratch the tiles and still leave some dirt behind, so they're not the best option for weekly cleaning.
Lastly, our specialists told the client about the importance of stopping the spread of mold and mildew, mainly through dry indoor spaces with proper ventilation. They recommended opening the windows and doors from time to time and to keep an eye on harder-to-reach areas that might go unnoticed during cleaning sessions.
