A House in Santa Barbara, CA, Has a Beautiful Floor Thanks to Our Grout Cleaning Process

January 04, 2024

Floors in busy areas endure heavy wear and tear, so it can be challenging to keep them in good shape. In certain instances, standard cleaning methods aren't enough to provide satisfactory results, requiring professional help. Our client from Santa Barbara, CA, had a similar problem on one of her floors. The owner cleaned the surface regularly, but the grout was still dull and unappealing despite her efforts.


After searching online and trying other methods that didn't work, she decided to look for professional assistance. While she was searching, one of her friends highly recommended our grout cleaning services in Santa Barbara, California, saying we had done an excellent job restoring his showers earlier this month.

Following her friend's suggestion, she visited our website and was happy to find all the information she needed. She read a few of our blog posts and browsed our picture gallery, which gave her the confidence to fill out our online scheduler to request a free evaluation on a day and time that was most convenient for her.

After we arrived, we quickly assessed the issues on the floor and noticed the surface was in poor condition, the grout had an unsightly appearance, and it wasn't adequately sealed, which had contributed to the staining, discoloration, and decay.

After discussing our assessment with the owner, we suggested the best solution to fix the problems and restore the surface. We recommended our grout cleaning and sealing service using Sir Grout's proprietary products because they are the safest, most advanced products on the market. We told her we would address the damage, color seal the grout to revamp its color, and ensure the surface would be protected for a long time.

We gave her a no-obligation quote detailing the work we would perform. She was pleased with the reasonable quote and immediately requested to schedule the job on a future date and time that was convenient for her.

We arrived on the appointed day and time, ready to restore the floor. After preparing the area with clear plastic and masking tape to ensure it was protected while we worked, we set up our equipment and started our multi-step process, letting the homeowner know we were available to answer all her questions.

First, we cleaned the surface using a high-speed scrubber and our exclusive cleaner. We explained to the client that our product uses high-quality ingredients that wouldn't leave a residue or damage the surface.

Next, we restored the grout and sealed it with our flagship sealant, ColorSeal, a high-quality product that protects against dirt, water, stains, and other damage. In addition, it reduces wear and tear, making it easier for the homeowner to maintain.

During our assessment, we explained to our client that ColorSeal stands out because it gives grout a uniform color and a completely revitalized appearance, improving the surface tenfold. In addition, our large variety of colors almost always ensures we have a color to match the original color of the grout, or many homeowners choose to change it to give a new look to their surfaces.

After cleaning up, we met with our client and showed her the results. The owner was thrilled to see the restored floor and said it looked perfect. She thanked us for a job that exceeded her expectations and promised to recommend our services to family and friends with any hard surface-related issues like hers.

Before leaving, we gave our client some recommendations and helpful tips for maintaining her restored surfaces. We suggested a weekly cleaning routine using pH-neutral and soap-free cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. We told her it delivers outstanding results, and because it's non-toxic, it won't harm anyone in her home, including pets.

We don't recommend using soap-based products or substances with acidic properties because they contain harsh chemicals that damage the surface and leave a residue that often seeps into the grout, causing discoloration, staining, and other issues. We also told her to avoid rinsing mops in dirty water when cleaning and to avoid using abrasive tools because they can scratch the tiles.
