This Floor in Glendale Went Through an Amazing Makeover Thanks to Our Grout Cleaning Crew

May 27, 2025

A large living room is arguably the best place to spend your free time, but a soiled surface can do a lot to ruin any sense of comfort. A homeowner in Glendale was eager to do something about the state of his living room floor; he loved the floor's layout and grew more and more frustrated with each new failed attempt to clean the grout. Regular cleaners simply didn't work against the dirt that was stuck on the narrow lines, and the owner didn't want to get used to the floor's new appearance.


In between all his efforts, the homeowner came across Sir Grout Queens on social media and was immediately interested in learning more about our work. He visited our website and read more about our grout cleaning service in Glendale. Tired of struggling with his living room floor, he didn't wait to get in touch with us, and our specialists responded soon after he filled out the website's contact form.

We went to his house later that week to look at the floor, arriving in an identified vehicle that the owner recognized right away. Inside the living room area, our techs immediately noticed the signs of decay on the grout. The porous surface wasn't cracked, but thick layers of dirt altered its color and appearance. The owner was frustrated after so many attempts to clean the grout, so we explained why soap-based cleaners are not a good choice for the maintenance of porous surfaces like grout and ceramic tile.

These products gradually cover the grout in a foamy film, trapping dirt, soil, and other elements on the surface. This makes cleaning a never-ending struggle, particularly in areas subjected to constant foot traffic. The client listened to our explanation and was relieved when we confirmed that we could restore the grout's original appearance, so he didn't hesitate to schedule an appointment after our offer to restore the floor.

At his convenience, our specialists returned the next day with all the necessary equipment. We prepared the area and used a cleaner to get the dirt loose on the grout. After letting the product sit for a few minutes, our techs cleaned the entire surface with a high-speed scrubber, paying special attention to the intricate layout near the edges.

Next, we started sealing the grout lines on the floor and gradually recolored the grout as per the client's specifications earlier that day. He wanted the grout to blend in with the tiles, so our crew used the perfect shade to achieve that effect. Sir Grout's ColorSeal is available in multiple colors to suit any preference, no matter the setting. More importantly, it provides all the protection you could ask for, repelling soil, grime, cosmetic residue, grease, mold, mildew, and more.

Our crew buffed the floor to fully showcase the tiles' new beauty and called the client back into the room. He loved the result as soon as he saw it and thanked our specialists for delivering such outstanding services.

We had some additional tips for the client, knowing that he was worried about having to deal with the same problem all over again. Our first recommendation was to replace soap-based cleaners with pH-neutral formulas since this would rule out harmful side effects like discoloration and grout damage. Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner not only does a better job of removing embedded dirt, it also works without corroding surface. Because there are no harsh chemicals in its formula, our product doesn't weaken the sealant's grout protection and works more effectively to preserve the tiles' natural color. It takes less time to get the desired result and homeowners don't have to worry about being exposed to toxic fumes.

Another recommendation was to scrub off the dirt with non-abrasive tools like a mop, a towel, or a terry cloth. Something sharper is likely to scratch the tiles without even removing all the dirt. Wiping any leftover moisture also helps prevent mold and mildew, along with good indoor ventilation. That's why our techs ended their appointment with a general reminder to leave the door ajar and open the windows to encourage more fresh air inside the guest areas.

After thanking us for our services once again, the homeowner promised to pass these recommendations to his friends in Glendale and to tell them all about our grout cleaning methods.
