Our Experts Impressed a Family in Scottsdale with Their Grout Recoloring Skills

February 12, 2024

A dirty floor will cause you many headaches if there isn't a clear solution in sight. A homeowner in Scottsdale felt out of her depth while trying to deal with a similar issue in two different parts of her home: her floors were visibly soiled, especially on the grout. For years, the quarry tiles had brought a cheerful touch that suited her big household, and the homeowner loved how both her kitchen and bathroom matched on that account. Sadly, a busy household was also the reason why the homeowner had to clean after spills and muddy shoe prints every other day.


It was upsetting to get the same result after each new attempt to remove the stains. The homeowner understood that no amount of cleaning would make a difference, so she started looking for professional assistance. First, she asked friends and family for advice, which is why she had a positive impression of Sir Grout Phoenix before she even found us online. Our website only cemented her opinions on our grout recoloring service in Scottsdale and the homeowner had no qualms about scheduling an appointment once her research was done.

Our specialists responded swiftly and efficiently, arriving at her house on the scheduled date, only two days later. They conducted a thorough evaluation, observing the bathroom floor and the kitchen floor separately before deciding on what to do. In both cases, the tiles' color looked dull and muted, but the worst stains sat on the grout. The grout lines went from gray to black in different parts of the rooms, and most of the dirt gathered on the surface closest to fixed furniture, like the kitchen cupboards and the vanity. Our experts asked some general questions about the cleaners used on the floor and the client's answer filled in the gaps.


Both floors had seen a lot of activity over the years, which is to be expected in the bathroom and the kitchen area. Foot traffic, food residue, and the chemicals in traditional cleaners had all played a part in weakening the sealant's protection on the grout. These are common occurrences for even smaller households, and our specialists know how to deal with the result. They offered to return later that week to work on the floors and the client agreed at once.

She welcomed our crew into her home the very next day. They arrived early in the morning to ensure that there was enough time to complete the restoration in the two rooms. For the first step, our techs began meticulously stripping the old coating to prepare the surface. Then, they cleaned the floors with a powerful formula that got the dirt loose on the grout. After running a high-speed scrubbing machine multiple times, they had the floor looking spotless, and there were no sticky spots left on the tiles.

As per the homeowner's request, our experts recolored the grout to restore the pure white color it had when she'd first bought the house. To do this, they applied ColorSeal on every grout line and scrubbed off the residue once the sealant was in place. Thanks to our thorough sealing, grout surfaces stay smooth and clean for longer. No dirt or soil gets stuck on the pores and weekly cleaning flows much more smoothly. In short, our flagship sealant is the ideal solution to counter wear and tear in the most hectic parts of your home.

Our specialists ended the restoration after buffing the floors in both rooms. The whole family was in awe, and the homeowner remarked on how our services had brought life back to her floors. For the first time in weeks, the grout didn't overshadow the tiles and actually drew the eye to the floors' classic layout.

The client asked for some surface maintenance tips, knowing that she could trust our expertise. Here's what our techs had to say: When it comes to cleaning floors and other hard surfaces, nothing's more effective than pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Unlike most of the options available today, our product won't expose tile and grout surfaces to damage after regular use. Instead, it simplifies cleaning to the point that homeowners can remove mold, mildew, grease, grime, mud, and other stains in minutes. The best approach involves spreading the product with a clean mop or a terry cloth since steel wools can leave scratch marks on the tiles. It's important to ensure that your tools are clean before using them on the floors, or you'll only be transferring the dirt onto a new surface.

To prevent the effects of moisture buildup, we recommend opening the windows and doors at least a few hours a day. This will help the circulation of fresh air and prevent mold around harder-to-reach areas like the corner joints or the underside of your furniture.
