This Floor Had the Best Glow Up Thanks to Our Tanque Verde Hard Surface Restoration Services

April 18, 2023

A housewife in Tanque Verde was put off when the stains on her living room floor got more prominent after a grueling cleaning session. The natural red tinge of her tiles used to bring a cheerful note to her home, but they had grown discolored and dull beyond recognition. The client had already enlisted her husband's help in her search for a Tanque Verde Hard Surface Restoration Services company when one of her closest friends came up with the solution. This friend recounted how a similar issue had affected her own daughter's floors and recommended Sir Grout Tucson as the ultimate solution to restore the tiles to their original state.


The client went online to read a bit more about our services, browsed our picture gallery, and filled out the "Request a Quote" form on our website. Our crew was at her doorstep a few days later to perform a free in-home evaluation of her floors. The tiles had indeed taken a lackluster appearance, having accumulated various stain marks while losing all their shine. We asked the client about the cleaning products she used on the floors, and her answer confirmed our initial suspicions. The use of harsh chemicals and soap-based formulas had worn down the tiles.

We explained that this was a common mishap since a great majority of generic cleaning products in the market carry pH imbalances that only make terra-cotta tiles more vulnerable to absorbing external elements, from dirt carried through foot traffic to product residue and mildew. We also noticed that the grout lines were unsealed, which explained the dark stains covering some parts of the grout. After we explained the best course of action to undo the damage on the surfaces, the homeowner hired our hard surface restoration services and scheduled an appointment for the restoration.

On the appointed date, our technicians wasted no time cleaning the floors, using a pH-neutral cleaner and a high-speed scrubber to thoroughly clean all the tiles and grout lines. Out product poses no threat on the surfaces and counters the growth of fungi and mold. Our crew cleaned and scrubbed the surfaces until they were completely free of marks, making sure to remove all the residue that had clung to the tiles and the grout. To reach narrow areas and enhance the effects of our cleaning methods, our specialists used a vapor steam cleaner that left the tiles glowing.

At this point, we were ready to begin the sealing of the grout. For this step, our crew applied Sir Grout's ColorSeal to ward off water, dirt, product residue, and other elements that could seep into the grout lines. Our exclusive ColorSeal protects the grout from gradual deterioration, blocking its pores and enhancing its color according to the client's preference. The grout lines were thick enough to draw as much attention and the tiles, so the sealing process was the final touch that revived the floor's visual appeal. By the end of our cleaning and sealing job, the terra-cotta floor had regained the vibrancy of its natural color, and the entire floor looked amazing with the newly sealed grout. The client was beyond satisfied and told us she couldn't wait to show the results to her friends.

Our specialists were happy to share some tips when the client asked for recommendations on how to take care of her floors. They told her that a pH-neutral cleaner like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner is the best addition to her weekly cleaning routine. Our product has no harsh agents in its formula which provides the best protection against mold and fungi while also preserving the quality of the terra-cotta tiles. It is also the best choice when cleaning spills and stains as soon as they occur. We also recommended maintaining good ventilation in all parts of the house, as this is the best defense against moisture and all other harmful external agents.
