Our Grout Cleaning Crew Left a Floor in Tempe Looking Better than Ever

July 22, 2025

Despite their combined efforts to keep dirt off the surface, a couple in Tempe was not satisfied with the look of their kitchen floor. The grout's color got darker every day, making the surface look dated. The couple's work still paid off on the ceramic tiles, but they didn't want to get used to the grout's new color, and they knew that buying a new cleaner would make no difference in the result.


After considering all these factors, it was easy for the owners to agree on the best course of action. They went online looking for a professional grout cleaning service in Tempe and Sir Grout Phoenix immediately caught their attention. The couple marveled at the examples in our picture gallery and read through some of our success stories before filling out the form to reach out to our techs.

We responded promptly, and following the couple's request, arrived at their house a couple of days later for an in-home evaluation. We inspected the entire surface, looking at all the grout lines to make sure that there was no structural damage to address beforehand. All in all, there was no way to identify the grout's original color; foot traffic had left its mark on the porous surface, darkening the lines until they clashed against the ceramic's light color. Regular cleaners also played a part after corroding the sealant's protection, which explained the amount of dirt trapped between the tiles.

The solution was a professional cleaning and sealing service, so we summarized each step of the process for the couple. They both agreed with our plan, so they asked us to return later that week for the restoration.

At the couple's convenience, our techs returned later that week to restore the floor. We prepared the kitchen area and used a special non-toxic cleaner to remove the dirt between the tiles. After running a high-speed scrubber several times, our specialists managed to eliminate all the marks, leaving the grout ready for the next part of the process.

We applied sealant on the grout, gradually bringing all the grout lines back to their original appearance. Our acrylic-based ColorSeal protects grout surfaces from the worst stains you can find in a kitchen. It repels food residue, grime, mold, mud, and many other elements, so homeowners can perfect their cleaning routine to save time and get better results. It's also available in multiple colors, so you can always expect a good-looking result that matches your style.

We completed the process soon after applying tile sealant on the rest of the ceramic surface. As expected, the floor looked gorgeous and the couple was delighted with the result. They admired the soft colors on the tiles and remarked on how the floor made their kitchen surface look brighter. They also promised to spread the word about our services to all the people they knew in Tempe.

Our techs still had some useful recommendations to help the clients make the best of their cleaning routine, so we went over everything at the end of the visit. We started by introducing pH-neutral cleaners to improve the result on high-traffic surfaces like the kitchen floor. Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner is far more effective than most of the products on the market, removing the dirt in minutes and with minimum scrubbing. Its permeating effect gets soil and grime loose so you can get rid of the stains much more quickly. And for all its cleaning power, our formula doesn't have harsh ingredients to damage your floors over time. This also means that people and pets can be safer because there are no toxic fumes released inside the house.

Another important tip is to combine pH-neutral cleaners with non-abrasive tools to avoid any damage to the tiles. You can get all the dirt off your floors after wiping with a towel, a mop, or a terry cloth. Whatever you choose, just make sure to wash your tools beforehand to prevent the accumulation of dirt.

Lastly, kitchen surfaces are exposed to moisture throughout the day and this could make way for different hygienic issues if the area is not properly ventilated. Our experts recommended opening the windows for a few hours to keep the room from becoming stuffy throughout the day. This will also keep any moisture from becoming embedded on porous surfaces.

At Sir Grout Phoenix, we understand the importance of keeping a clean kitchen. A hygienic environment is ideal to preserve any health risks, and regular cleaners often fall short of meeting that standard. That's why our restoration process is the ultimate solution to transform your floors without putting a toll on your peace of mind.
