A Kitchen Floor in Grosse Pointe Farms Received All the Benefits of Our Grout Cleaning Service

April 20, 2025

A homeowner in Grosse Pointe Farms could tell that their cleaners were not doing a good job of removing the stains, and the proof she needed was on her floor's grout. Dirt and other external elements altered the lines on the floor until they looked several shades darker, even when the homeowner dedicated more time to scrubbing the grout in between her weekly cleaning sessions.


The entire process left her exhausted and frustrated, so when one of her relatives mentioned Sir Grout Greater Detroit, she immediately asked for more details. That conversation sparked the owner's interest in our grout cleaning service in Grosse Pointe Farms, and our website's content met all her expectations when she looked us up online. Impressed by our picture gallery and all the glowing reviews she came across during her research, the homeowner finally decided to give us a call.

Following her request, our experts visited her house only a few days later. During their inspection of the kitchen floor, they checked the grout for damage and evaluated the state of the ceramic tiles. There were no stains on the floor since the client never faltered in her cleaning routine, but the problem was still obvious. The grout was unsealed, so all the lines on the floor had the same dull color. Our techs explained that regular cleaners wouldn't do much to solve the problem because they often trapped more dirt on porous surfaces. Their harsh ingredients also corroded the sealant's protection over time, so that likely changed the grout's appearance so drastically.

With all of this in mind, our crew offered to return later that week with all the necessary equipment for the restoration, and the client agreed with their plan after they were done outlining the process for her.

On the scheduled date, they were back at the kitchen area, getting ready for the first part of the process. They soaked the floor with a permeating cleaner and started running a high-speed scrubber across the entire surface. After several laps around the kitchen, our techs managed to remove all the embedded dirt between the tiles, and this alone did a lot to improve the floor's overall look.

Next, our crew applied sealant on the grout, carefully going through each of the grout lines on the floor. Our acrylic-based ColorSeal is the perfect solution to revive grout surfaces from the effects of wear and tear. For starters, it's available in multiple colors to match any setting, but this is only one of its benefits. Our sealant is designed to withstand foot traffic and other external factors for weeks and even months, reducing the amount of dirt that usually grows around high-traffic surfaces.

By the end of the process, the grout lines had a nice, uniform color that suited the tiles much better. Our experts called the client back into the kitchen after buffing the surface, and she was thrilled with the result. She thanked us for our services and promised to call us again whenever she wanted to revamp any other part of the house.

While putting away their equipment, our crew shared some useful tips to help the client make the best of her cleaning routine. They started by introducing pH-neutral cleaners to improve the results 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 common stains in minutes and with minimum scrubbing. Its permeating effect gets the dirt loose on the grout 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 children and pets won't be exposed to toxic fumes if they're within arm's reach while you go about your household chores.

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; unlike steel wools, fabric won't scratch the ceramic if you happen to scrub too hard. 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 isn't properly ventilated. Our team recommended opening the windows for a few hours to keep the room from becoming stuffy throughout the day. This will also keep the stains from becoming embedded on porous surfaces.
