This Moldy Shower Changed for the Better After a Tile Cleaning Service in Dallas, TX

August 07, 2019

Keeping a shower clean is a hard task that every homeowner must deal with. Showers are exposed to and retain a lot of moisture which can damage tiled surfaces, leading to expensive repairs. Recently, a homeowner had a serious problem with the shower in her home in Dallas, TX. She had a very busy schedule at work, so she didn't have the time to devote to cleaning. Over time, she noticed the shower's surfaces became increasingly dirty. The floor was full of soap scum and the fixtures were filled with grime. Since her family planned to visit her soon, she decided to do something about it right away.


After telling her friend about the problem she was having with the shower, the homeowner learned he had recently experienced a similar problem and solved it by hiring Sir Grout Dallas Fort Worth. Her friend also mentioned that the results the company got were great. The homeowner, based on what her friend told her, searched online for our company and found our website. After looking at some of the photos in our before and after gallery and reading some reviews from satisfied customers, she learned about our remarkable tile cleaning services in Dallas, TX. Nevertheless, the homeowner decided she would try solving the issue on her own before calling us.

The next day, the homeowner went out to the local store to buy several cleaning products to clean the shower. After a thorough cleaning session, her shower floor hadn't changed at all. The soap scum was still intact. She thought that maybe one cleaning session wouldn't be enough to see a noticeable change in the ceramic tiled surfaces. She spent the next week cleaning the shower, but she didn't see any progress. Feeling defeated, she realized that her friend was right in that it was best to leave the cleaning to professionals. If she wanted to have the bathroom ready in time for her family and friends, she needed to hire experts in the field of hard surface restoration. She knew Sir Grout Dallas Fort Worth was the best choice, so she called to schedule a free in-home evaluation.

On the day of the evaluation, our experts arrived at the client's house to offer her the most effective solution to the problem at hand. The client showed our team the shower. Upon walking in, our experts immediately noticed the soap scum on the shower floor. Our crew explained that this normally happens when homeowners used soap bars and incorrect cleaning products and methods. The client asked if there was a solution to her problem. Our specialists proposed a tile cleaning service followed by a sealing procedure to protect the shower's surfaces against any kind of damage. The customer immediately accepted the offer. All she wanted was her bathroom to look perfect.

On the day of the appointment, our techs were ready to restore the ceramic tiled shower. They began by soaking the shower's floors and walls with a pH-neutral cleaner. On top of being safe for tile and grout, this cleaner contains ingredients that inhibit the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms for an extended period of time after it has been applied. Next, they rinsed off the cleaner with a high-speed scrubber to remove the grime and soap scum from the tiles and grout lines. To finish the cleaning process, our experts used a steam cleaner on the shower's expansion joints to ensure they were fully cleaned.

Once the surface was clean, our techs moved on to the next step: the sealing procedure. Sealing the shower's surfaces would prevent water and dirt from seeping into the tiles and grout lines. To seal the shower, our team used one of Sir Grout Dallas Fort Worth's exclusive products, Tile Armor. This state-of-the-art sealant is designed to create a shield that protects any surface against water, soap, stains, mold, and mildew.

When they finished, our specialists showed the client the outcome. She was thrilled. The change was incredible. The shower looked fantastic. She even took some photos to show her friend. Her home was now ready for her friends and family. The homeowner thanked our experts several times and mentioned that she would recommend Sir Grout Dallas Fort Worth to anyone experiencing similar problems.

Before leaving, our technicians gave her some recommendations on how to maintain the bathroom. First, they suggested keeping the shower enclosure ventilated throughout the day to prevent water seepage and mold growth. They also advised her to keep the shower as dry as possible. To do this, they recommended using a dry cloth after every shower and cleaning session. Second, they recommended steering away from store-bought products. Most of these products do nothing but harm surfaces because they contain soap or acids in them. It's best to stick to pH-neutral tile-safe cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner.
