We were recently contacted by a homeowner in Downingtown, PA because she needed to have the floor in her kitchen and dining area restored. The floor had beautiful light-colored porcelain tiles, but the grout lines were dingy. After trying to clean the floor with several store-bought products that promised amazing outcomes and seeing no results, she went online and searched for advice.

Many websites suggested thoroughly cleaning and sealing the tiles and grout lines to solve the problem. This prompted the homeowner to search for tile cleaning experts in Downingtown, PA. She found our website in the top search results. After browsing our picture gallery and watching some of the testimonials from satisfied customers, she called to schedule a free evaluation.

A few days later, a Sir Grout of Greater Chester County's expert arrived at the client's home to perform the assessment. After greeting the homeowner, our tech examined the kitchen floor to determine what was causing the problem. Due to their light color, the porcelain tiles made the dirty-looking fixtures easily noticeable. When our specialist asked the client about her cleaning routine, she explained the floor had proved impossible to clean. She also admitted to using acidic cleaners. This explained why the grout's sealant had worn off, allowing spills and moisture to seep in overtime.

After our tech finished the evaluation, he proposed a tile cleaning and sealing service to solve the problem. Not only would this procedure get the floor back in shape, but it would also keep it protected for a long time. Feeling reassured, the homeowner agreed to the service.

Later that week, our team went back to the client's house to perform the service. This was a thorough step by step process that had to be carefully carried out. They began by cleaning the floor using a pH-neutral cleaner that's safe for both tile and grout. After they let it soak for a few minutes, they continued the cleaning process by using a high-speed scrubber on the floor to remove all the dirt that had accumulated on the tiles and grout lines. They also used a steam cleaner on the spots where the floor met the kitchen counters to extract any food waste that might have lodged into the grout lines.

After making sure that none of the grout lines were cracked or badly damaged, our crew applied our flagship sealant ColorSeal to the grout lines. This is a high-quality sealant that protects grout against water, stains, dirt, spills, mold, and mildew. It also comes in many desired colors, which in this case was white as requested by the customer.

As shown in the before and after pictures, the clean-looking grout lines drastically changed the appearance of the client's kitchen and dining area. The floor simply looked pristine. The homeowner thanked our techs for a job well done and said she'd recommend our services to her friends and family.

Before leaving, our specialists gave the customer some maintenance tips to ensure it remained in good condition. Their main recommendation was cleaning the floor once a week using a pH-neutral cleaner like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Unlike most store-bought products and homemade recipes, this cleaning solution doesn't contain bleach, soap, or acidic substances. These components tend to damage surfaces over time, including grout. Our techs also recommended wiping spills away as soon as they happened. This will help prevent stains and prolong the lifespan of ColorSeal.
