Our Grout Sealing Experts in Houston Restored and Enhanced the Restroom of This High-End Office Building

August 15, 2019

Public restrooms receive dozens of visits daily. As a result, surfaces are likely to get damaged and become unappealing. For this reason, it is important to keep tiles and grout protected to withstand heavy wear and tear. Professionals like Sir Grout Houston can clean and seal the grout safely and efficiently, restoring the surface and preventing future damages.


An office building in Houston had a restroom that was equipped with beautiful floors. Unfortunately, the surface suffered deterioration because of the heavy daily use. The tiles were dingy and the grout lines had accumulated dirt. The cleaning staff performed regular maintenance, but they were having a difficult time trying to solve the issues. They tried using several cleaning products, but only noticed negative results. They notified the manager and he went to assess the situation. When he saw the bad condition of the restroom, he decided to look for professional assistance. As he was searching for hard surface restoration company, he saw a Sir Grout Houston ad in a magazine. He called us and explained the situation. We agreed to visit the building and perform a free consultation. Later, our Houston grout sealing experts provided a solution and left the restroom gorgeous and fully protected.

We arrived a couple of days later for the evaluation of the restroom. After greeting the manager, we proceeded with the assessment. We noticed the grout lines suffered from accumulation of dirt and grime. As a result, the entire surface had acquired an unclean appearance. We also learned that the grout lines were unsealed. This left the grout exposed to all sorts of damage from external agents because it is porous and can easily absorb dirt, liquids, and cleaner residue. We informed the manager that the restroom required our special process for full restoration.

We offered a grout sealing service to shield the surface and make it resistant to heavy wear and tear. We would achieve the best results possible with our top tier products and high-end equipment. We assured the manager the restroom would look beautiful when we were finished. He was pleased with the solution we proposed and decided to hire us.

We returned to the office building to begin the grout sealing process in the restroom. We began by cleaning the floor using our exclusive pH-neutral natural hard surface cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. This top-notch product is soap-free and won't cause any damage. Moreover, it won't discolor or stain the tiles. Additionally, it has an enhanced formula that can help inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, mold and microorganisms. This left the surface ready for the next step. We cleaned the grout and performed the necessary repairs. After thoroughly working on the entire surface and fixing all the problems, we continued with the sealing process.

We sealed the grout lines with the best sealant, our state-of-the-art ColorSeal. This top of the line product closes off water absorption and wards off damages from dirt, grime, and all other harmful external agents. Thanks to its special properties, maintaining the surface isn't a problem because it makes cleaning routines easier and faster. Furthermore, it has a large selection and variety of colors. This allows the owner to match the grout with the tiles and improve the appearance of the entire surface. When we finished all the steps, the restroom looked beautiful and brand-new.

We showed the results to our client. He was pleasantly surprised when he saw the restroom because all the issues were gone. The tiles and the grout lines were in top condition and fully protected to endure heavy daily use. The manager was happy with our work and said he couldn't believe this amazing restoration had been cost-effective and fast. After thanking us, he stated that from that point on, he would recommend our services to everyone he knows. He also asked us to continue providing service to the office building with additional projects and by assisting the cleaning staff.

Before leaving, we discussed proper maintenance techniques with the cleaning staff. We recommended using pH-neutral soap-free cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product doesn't leave residue that could deteriorate the marble tiles. Moreover, its improved formula provides protection against bacteria and fungi. Clean the restroom regularly to prevent the accumulation of dirt particles.

We do not recommend using soap-based or acidic cleaners. These products contain harsh agents that can deteriorate the stone, leaving stains or dull spots on the surface. They can also leave residue that causes damage to the grout lines and can discolor or even break them. This can lead to more severe issues like water leakage. In addition, we suggested avoiding dirty mops when cleaning the surface. Rinsing a dirty mop into the cleaning solution leads to grime build-up. For best results, always use clean mops.
