A Kitchen Floor in Fullerton Looks Stunning After a Service from Our Tile and Grout Cleaners

December 27, 2024

A homeowner in Fullerton did what he could to make his kitchen look as nice as it did when he moved into his home, but his efforts didn't amount to much when he tried to restore the floor. For the past few months, dirt seemed to spread at an alarming rate, and the homeowner was at a loss after trying all the cleaners she was familiar with.


After assessing the problem and going over his options with some of his neighbors, the homeowner decided to contact a hard surface restoration expert. This decision paid off almost as soon as he began his online search, with Sir Grout Tustin popping up at the top of his results. He browsed our website for a few minutes and read some of our previous blog posts to learn more about our restoration process. Then, he filled out our contact form to request a visit from our tile and grout cleaners in Fullerton.

As scheduled, they were at his doorstep just two days after he learned about Sir Grout Tustin, so the client immediately let them in for the inspection of the kitchen floor. Our techs quickly confirmed some of his early suspicions: there was no sealant on the grout, and the surface had absorbed a combination of dust specs, grime, spill residue, and soil. The tiles had been similarly affected, as shown by the dark stains in parts of the ceramic. Our crew explained why traditional cleaners don't work on these stains, stating that the chemical properties in these products only trap external elements on the surface without actually protecting the pores. In such conditions, it's expected to get many stains within a short span of time, especially when it comes to high-traffic areas like kitchens and bathrooms. At the end of their evaluation, our experts offered to clean and seal the floor with Sir Grout's high-end equipment, and the homeowner knew right away that this would be the surest way to protect her floor in the long run.

On the appointed date, our techs were back at the house to restore the kitchen floor. They prepared their equipment and soaked the floor with a surface-safe cleaner, making sure to spread the product across all the grout lines. After a few minutes, our specialists used a high-speed scrubbing machine to eliminate the dirt as it got loose, leaving the floor looking better than it had in months.

It was time to restore the grout, so our crew carefully applied Sir Grout's ColorSeal to all the grout lines until the entire surface had the same soft beige color. With our acrylic-based sealant, grout surfaces can stay protected against wear and tear because there are no liquids or external agents seeping into the pores. Our sealant protects against water, grime, food residue, dust specs, mold, and more, so keeping the floor looking spotless demands less time and effort.

Our experts buffed the floor to fully showcase its transformation and let the client assess the result. As expected, he was thrilled with its new look and loved how the grout perfectly matched the color of the ceramic tiles.

When our team offered to give additional cleaning pointers, the client was very interested in hearing what they had to say. As they told him after the restoration, tile and grout surfaces can suffer a lot when your cleaning routine includes bleach and soap-based products. That's why we recommend replacing them with pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product's formula combines the most effective ingredients to achieve thorough results without adding any chemicals into the mix. It simplifies the removal of grime, grease, spills, soil, etc., loosening the stains soon after our cleaner is left sitting on the surface.

The homeowner also asked about the right cleaning tools, so our experts suggested using a mop, a towel, or a terry cloth to remove any marks without risking damage to the tiles. Apply the cleaning solution with any of these tools and make sure to let the floor dry completely before entering the room again.

Our last recommendation before leaving the house was to open the windows and doors a few hours a day since this is the simplest way to prevent moisture buildup. Kitchen surfaces usually offer enough space to prevent the spread of mold, but good indoor ventilation will still work wonders to preserve your home's hygiene.
