Our Specialists Revamped a Shower in Jacksonville With a Thorough Grout Cleaning Service

May 19, 2025

Most homeowners are familiar with the stress of dealing with mold on their shower surfaces, but few have found the ultimate solution to prevent the resulting grout damage. A Jacksonville resident was frustrated by being unable to stop the spread of dirt on her shower grout, and she couldn't stop thinking about the hygienic issues this may cause later on.


When one of her friends recommended Sir Grout of NE Florida, she was eager about potentially finding an alternative to generic cleaners, so she visited our website to learn more. As she read about our grout cleaning service in Jacksonville, the homeowner was impressed by our long track record of success stories, and this convinced her that she could trust our crew's insight.

As she requested during a phone call with one of our agents, our techs went to her house that same week to inspect the shower. Once there, we assessed every surface, noting the embedded mold on the grout and a few traces of efflorescence on the walls. The biggest concern was the shower floor since moisture had seeped behind the tiles until the grout near the seams started to fall apart.

We explained that unsealed grout surfaces are vulnerable to lots of damage, either from the minerals in hard water or constant exposure to soap-based products. That's why we needed to use Sir Grout's professional cleaning equipment before doing all the necessary repairs. The owner listened as we outlined the restoration process step by step and asked us to return for the restoration after checking our no-obligation quote.

We arrived at her house with all the necessary equipment on the scheduled day and got to work immediately. First, our experts deep-cleaned the shower stall with a permeating formula, which allowed us to remove the embedded dirt between the tiles. We also used a 275-degree vapor steamer to ensure a thorough result, especially on the floor and the horizontal seams, where most of the mold was stuck.

Next, our crew carefully removed the loose caulk from the corners before installing epoxy grout on the floor, fully restoring the most damaged parts of the shower and enhancing the grout's resistance to mold and hard water. To complete the grout's restoration, we applied ColorSeal on the walls, and by the end of the process, all the grout lines stood out beautifully against the ceramic's light brown color.

This marked the end of another successful restoration. The homeowner had nothing but praise after seeing the grout's new look and thanked our specialists for repairing the seams before the shower suffered any lasting damage.

Let's review the most critical steps when cleaning all bathroom surfaces. Regular cleaners will consistently deliver lackluster results, so we recommend trying pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Combining many high-quality ingredients, our cleaner simplifies routine maintenance by removing the mold and soap scum more effectively. It also works without weakening the grout's sealant, and its composition rules out the risk of tile discoloration. There's no better way to get the desired result because you can eliminate all the dirt, swiftly, before it has time to gather around your shower surfaces.

Our second recommendation is to use non-abrasive tools like a towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee. A steel wool is likely to scratch the tiles even when you don't scrub too harshly, and fabric-based tools allow more precision when removing residue from harder-to-reach areas.

We also remind clients to let fresh air into their homes throughout the day. Shower surfaces are especially prone to wear and tear because they're smaller and constantly exposed to moisture. Just by leaving the door ajar and opening the windows nearby, you can prevent mold and mildew accumulation and make your cleaning results last much longer. After listing all these tips for the owner, she thanked us for our recommendations and promised to recommend our services to everyone she knew.
