Our Tile and Grout Cleaners Delivered Outstanding Results After Revamping a Kitchen Floor in Savannah

March 23, 2025

After weeks of lackluster cleaning results, a homeowner decided to contact our tile and grout cleaners in Savannah, hoping that we could help her improve the appearance of her kitchen floor. Before reaching out to us, the homeowner had tried using traditional soap-based cleaners to get the dirt loose on the grout, but that only made the discoloration more noticeable. She also used a homemade mix of water and vinegar but gave up on that almost immediately, deciding that trusting a professional was the safest choice.


It wasn't hard for her to find Sir Grout of the Lowcountry, and our services stood out from anything she'd seen before. Impressed by our picture gallery and reassured by all the reviews, she headed to our online scheduler to get in touch with our specialists.

On the appointed date, we arrived at her house to inspect the kitchen floor, and the client immediately recognized our vehicle and uniform. Inside the kitchen, our techs noticed several marks from old spills and other stains. Regular cleaners hadn't been able to fully remove these stains, so parts of the ceramic surface looked visibly darker as a result. Meanwhile, the grout lines looked soiled and unattractive due to the amount of dirt that was stuck on the surface. This is a common occurrence when it comes to cement-based grout; it's easy for external elements to seep into its porous surface when there's no sealant to protect it.

Our experts shared all these observations with the client before explaining the best course of action. As we told the client, our professional cleaning equipment can remove all the embedded dirt without subjecting the grout to harsh ingredients. Both store-bought products and DIY formulas have acidic imbalances that can damage tile and grout surfaces, and that's why the homeowner couldn't make any progress in her efforts to clean the floor. We also offered to seal the grout so it could stay spotless for much longer, and the client was fully on board with this idea.

At her convenience, we returned later that week to work on the kitchen floor. First, our specialists prepared the area and soaked the floor with a surface-safe cleaner. Then, we ran a high-speed scrubber to remove the dirt as our cleaner took effect, so we managed to remove all the grime and soap residue in record time.

The next step was sealing the grout to restore its uniform color. Our techs applied ColorSeal to all the grout lines on the floor, using a light beige shade to make them stand out without looking out of place. With this acrylic-based sealant, grout surfaces can stay spotless through hours of embedded dirt because there's a protective barrier that keeps grime, soil, and liquids away from the grout pores.

We buffed the floor for the last time and showed the result to the client when we were done. She loved the floor's transformation, from the grout's color to the ceramic's pristine appearance. It was everything she'd hoped for when she reached out to us.

After thanking our specialists for the restoration, the client asked for additional cleaning pointers to keep the dirt off the grout. Our techs recommended pH-neutral cleaners over bleach and chemical-based products to avoid subjecting the surface to harsh treatment. Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner combines high-quality ingredients to ensure the best results without risking discoloration later on. It makes all the surfaces look brand new for hours on end after removing spills, shoe prints, and other stains, all without exposing users to the fumes you'd find in most store-bought cleaners.

Following this, we recommended using non-abrasive tools to avoid scratching the surface while working through the dirt on high-traffic surfaces. The right products and tools are enough to preserve the floor's post-restoration look while stopping the spread of dirt, which is why we always instruct clients to choose a mop or a towel for the maintenance of tile and grout surfaces. Don't forget to wash your tools after you're done so the dirt doesn't spread around other surfaces during your household chores.

Lastly, we reminded the client of the importance of good indoor ventilation. It doesn't take much to keep the air from becoming stale, especially when it comes to a large kitchen area that's connected to other parts of the house. You only need to open the windows and doors for a few hours every day, and this alone will actively stop the growth of mold around the corners and under the furniture.
