Our Grout Recoloring Techs Gave This Floor in Somerset, NJ, a Brand New Look

December 11, 2022

Grout is an essential component on tiled surfaces, but it's vulnerable to damage, and it can deteriorate quickly. When this happens, it becomes grungy and unappealing, giving the area a run-down appearance that's hard to conceal. Depending on the issues, regular cleaning won't be enough, and the restoration might require professional attention. A resident from Somerset, NJ, had a real problem on her hands once it became impossible to get the dirt off her floor. All the grout lines were soiled, so it seemed like the perfect time to give the surface a makeover. Knowing common methods wouldn't make much of a difference, the owner decided to hire a professional hard surface restoration company.


Fortunately, one of her friends was a loyal client of Sir Grout Western New Jersey. When she told him about her problem, he immediately recommended our grout recoloring services in Somerset, New Jersey, saying we had done an amazing job restoring his shower a few months earlier. The owner followed his advice and went online to learn more about us. After browsing our website, reading some of our blogs, and going through the outstanding reviews from our customers, she was convinced we were the right choice. Hoping to solve her problem quickly, the owner filled out the website's contact form and asked for a free assessment.

Shortly after receiving her request, we arrived in an identified vehicle to inspect the surface. As our experts observed the surface, we noticed the damage was not severe. The grout, however, needed a lot of work, as shown by several dark spots that spread across most of the lines. The marks gave the surface an unsanitary appearance, especially because the dirt had started to spread to the gray tiles, and it became even harder for the client to clean the floor. We explained that cement-based grout is porous, so it's bound to absorb all sorts of external agents, from water to soil and grime. To prevent future damage, it's essential to apply a special sealant.

With this, we were ready to discuss a solution with the owner. Since our techs had confirmed that common methods wouldn't be enough, and the owner wanted to give the grout a full overhaul, we offered our recoloring services. With our high-end equipment and top-of-the-line products, our specialists would restore the surface and improve the floor's overall condition. At this point, we also performed a brief test to prove the efficacy of our products before providing a no-obligation quote. The owner felt all the more eager to get the job done after seeing our cleaner work on the floor, so she immediately scheduled a new appointment.

On the agreed-upon date, we returned to the client's house for the restoration. For the first step, our crew cleaned the surface using our non-toxic cleaner and a high-speed scrubbing machine. This product is made with top-quality ingredients and it doesn't leave a residue, so it won't cause any damage to the surface. After scrubbing out the soiling, we took care of the grout.

The owner wanted to make the grout stand out against the tiles, so we recolored all the lines with a shade of beige that was chosen in advance. ColorSeal provides remarkable defense and long-term results, repelling dirt, grime, and other external agents, reducing deterioration, and making cleaning routines flow much more smoothly. Our sealers also repel UV rays, ideal for areas subjected to solar impact. Sir Grout's flagship sealant greatly improved the floor's appearance, giving the grout a uniform color that made the dark gray ceramic look even more striking.

After a thorough restoration, all the issues had been addressed, the floor had been completely revamped, and we had fulfilled the owner's request. It was time to call her into the room so she could see the result. She was beyond thrilled because everything looked wonderful, and she had nothing but praise for our skills after getting a closer look at the grout.

Floors in busy areas endure heavy wear and tear, which can lead to damage and quick deterioration. Because of this, we always share a series of additional pointers after completing our services. During this visit, our techs suggested setting up a weekly cleaning routine using only pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product offers remarkable results and many benefits, so it's undoubtedly the best option for the maintenance of tile and grout surfaces in both commercial and residential settings. It is also non-toxic and safe for everyone in the house, so you can go about your chores without worrying about exposing yourself and others to chemical fumes.

We don't recommend soap-based cleaners or substances with acidic properties. These products are made with harsh agents, and in the long run, they can have a negative impact on the surface. In addition, they leave a sticky foam that seeps into the grout, which can cause stains, discoloration, and several other issues.

While cleaning the area, always use clean mops, and let the floor dry before entering the room again. To keep the area spotless, make sure to place a doormat near exterior doors. Our specialists shared all these tips with the owner, who in turn, thanked us for our advice and promised to recommend our services to everyone in Somerset.
