A Shower in Tucson Regained Its Natural Beauty Thanks to Our Tile Cleaning Process

March 31, 2025

A homeowner in Tucson felt overwhelmed by all the issues affecting her shower stall, from the mold on the shower's grout to the large cracks running between the floor tiles. She'd always been careful about the cleaners she used during her household chores; the shower combined ceramic on the walls with natural stone on the floors, so the homeowner was serious about preventing discoloration. This, however, also left her with few options to choose from when the dirt started to spread.  


The owner was tired of wasting so much time and effort. Still, more importantly, she was worried about unknowingly adding to the floor's damage, so she asked for a professional's opinion. This led her down an online search where she came across Sir Grout Tucson almost immediately. All the examples in our picture gallery made her eager to hire our grout cleaning service in Tucson, so she contacted us via phone right after completing her research.

Following her request, our specialists went to her house a few days later for an in-home evaluation. The homeowner took us to the master shower, and we began inspecting every surface, starting with the damaged grout on the floor. A combination of moisture and faulty construction work had weakened the grout over time, and the resulting cracks only allowed more water to seep behind the tiles.

Meanwhile, mold covered all the corners, along with traces of soap scum on the walls, so there was a lot of work to be done. When the homeowner mentioned her disappointment at store-bought cleaners, we explained that the ingredients in these products usually add to the damage caused by moisture buildup, corroding hard surfaces, and trapping the dirt in the grout pores. Luckily, our grout cleaning method is tailored to address all these issues while providing lasting results, so we immediately put our services at the client's disposal. She thanked us for the offer and scheduled a new appointment to restore the shower.

On the agreed-upon date, we returned to the client's master bathroom, getting ready to work on the shower. First, our experts deep-cleaned every surface with a non-toxic formula, carefully removing the mold stuck on the seams and all the efflorescence on the walls. We also used a 275-degree vapor steamer to ensure thorough results in harder-to-reach areas.

Our techs recolored the grout on the walls for the next step to restore its original appearance. Thanks to our flagship ColorSeal, grout surfaces stay protected against the worst effects of moisture buildup. It works as a protective barrier that keeps all the dirt at bay, repelling mold, mildew, efflorescence, and more.

When it was time to restore the floors, our techs carefully removed the loose grout and installed an epoxy mix on the floor's layout. Resistant to water and mold, our epoxy grout withstands the effects of wear and tear far more effectively than its cement-based counterpart, so it's the most durable solution to protect your shower from structural damage. Our techs worked meticulously until all parts of the floor looked as good as new and the stone's color was fully displayed.

The homeowner was ecstatic with the result, and after inspecting the floor's restoration, she had nothing but praise. She also promised to recommend Sir Grout Tucson to all the people she knew in the area.

Before leaving the client's home, our team took a moment to share some valuable pointers. Our first recommendation was to replace bleach and generic products with pH-neutral formulas like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product has everything you could ask for, starting with high-quality ingredients to bring maximum cleaning power around the most active parts of your home. Its composition also removes the risks attached to most store-bought solutions because you get no toxic fumes in your living spaces and no discoloration to your shower surfaces. Our specialists recommend using non-abrasive tools like a towel or squeegee to make the best out of pH-neutral products. This approach is beneficial while removing the mold and soap residue that often gets stuck between shower tiles, so homeowners can scrub around hard-to-reach areas without accidentally scratching the ceramic.   

Our final recommendation was to keep the bathroom ventilated adequately throughout the day. As our experts explained, a simple way to improve indoor ventilation is by opening the bathroom door and the windows nearby. This way, the shower will gather less moisture, and the air will not become stale after a couple of hours, especially if homeowners also habitually wipe any pools of water on the floor.
