This Floor in Gilbert Looks Incredible After a Service from Our Tile and Grout Cleaners

August 26, 2025

The kitchen floor of a Gilbert household looked soiled and unappealing despite hours of scrubbing, and it was a constant source of stress for the homeowner. She'd tried both store-bought cleaners and DIY solutions to work through the issue, but there were no major changes in the floor's look: the tiles had lost their brand-new beauty, and the grout kept collecting dirt every day.


The homeowner decided to hire a hard surface restoration company to deal with the problem, and one of her friends had the perfect recommendation for her. According to her friend, Sir Grout Phoenix had revamped her bathroom floor earlier that month, and the result still stood out, even after weeks of foot traffic. Intrigued after hearing such a glowing review, the owner went online to learn more about our tile and grout cleaners in Gilbert. She perused our website and read about our previous jobs, particularly focusing on the restoration of tile surfaces similar to her own kitchen floor.

Later that day, she was ready to get in touch with our crew, so she gave us a call to schedule an in-home evaluation. We arrived at her house a couple of days later, and she immediately recognized our identified vehicle. Once we asked some standard questions about the household's cleaning methods, our specialists started inspecting the kitchen floor.

Grime and soap residue spread all over the entire surface, blurring the ceramic's design. This alone already did a lot to ruin the floor's look, but most of the embedded dirt was on the grout. All the grout lines had a dark brown color, and our techs explained that regular cleaners do little to detach the dirt that gets stuck on cement-based grout. These products have many acidic imbalances, and repeated exposure to the grout only corrodes the sealant's protection while trapping the dirt in the pores. The solution is to seal the grout in high-traffic areas after using the right cleaners on the surface, and that's exactly what we offered when we outlined our plan for the restoration.

At the owner's convenience, our techs returned to her house a few days later to work on the kitchen floor. To clean the surface, we used a special cleaning formula that got the dirt loose after sitting on the floor for a few minutes. Our experts gave the floor multiple strips with the help of a high-speed scrubbing machine. This not only helped us remove the embedded dirt on the grout, but we could also address the soapy residue that altered the tiles' natural look.

The second step was sealing the grout. Our techs applied ColorSeal to all the grout lines on the floor, recoloring the surface according to the client's preference. Our signature sealant is available in multiple colors to suit any setting and color scheme. More importantly, it provides the best protection against dirt, liquids, grime, and grease because it creates a strong barrier that keeps external elements from reaching the grout pores.

Our specialists removed the sealant's residue around the lines and buffed the floor before letting the client check the result. When she walked back into the room, she was in awe. The tiles looked gorgeous, and there were no specs of dirt on the grout. The floor looked even better than she had expected, and she promised to tell everyone she knew about the wonders of our grout cleaning services.

These are the tips we share with homeowners at the end of each appointment. First, we recommend avoiding traditional cleaners since they're more likely to open the grout pores to more dirt in the long run. The best alternative to clean your hard surfaces is using pH-neutral formulas like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product is effective against most common stains, removing grime, mold, and food residue in minutes, so there's no need to throw chemical-based cleaners into the mix. PH-neutral solutions bring all the cleaning power you need to maintain high-traffic surfaces, and they won't release toxic fumes into your living spaces.

Another important recommendation is to use only non-abrasive tools when scrubbing tile and grout surfaces. You can use a mop, a towel, or a terry cloth to remove spills, shoe prints, and other marks without worrying about scratching the tiles by mistake.

These are all important steps to take if you want to counter the effects of moisture buildup, but you can also help by improving the circulation of fresh air inside your kitchen and bathroom areas. Something as simple as opening the windows and doors from time to time can make all the difference, preventing the growth of mold and keeping the air from becoming stale.
