Our Tile and Grout Cleaners Impressed a Homeowner in Kiawah Island After Revamping Her Shower

December 05, 2025

Sometimes, a shower can look dull and unattractive, even after we manage to scrub off all the dirt. For example, a homeowner in Kiawah Island could tell that the color of her shower surfaces had become muted over time. She never let mold spread across the large ceramic stall, but there was little she could do against the dull yellow hue that permeated some of the tiles. Dealing with the embedded dirt on the grout was even harder, which is why she ultimately decided to look for professional assistance.


She'd heard of Sir Grout Charleston many times in the past, so the homeowner didn't hesitate when she saw our website at the top of her online search results. In a few minutes, she'd learned about our tile and grout cleaners in Kiawah Island, including in-depth information on recent success stories. She concluded her research with a phone call to one of our agents, during which the homeowner took the opportunity to schedule an appointment with our technicians.

At her request, our specialists visited the client's house two days later for an in-home evaluation, arriving in an identified vehicle that she recognized right away. Inside the bathroom area, we took note of all the areas where the grout had lost its natural color. Since the owner had kept the dirt from spreading, it was easy to see the yellow spots that darkened parts of the floor. Luckily, the grout had not suffered any damage beyond its discoloration, so we could restore its appearance with a professional cleaning service and our acrylic-based sealant.

Our team explained the entire process to the client, and she was immediately excited by the possibility of enhancing the protection of her grout surfaces. After a few follow-up questions, she scheduled a new appointment, and we agreed to return to the house before the end of the week.

On the agreed-upon date, our crew arrived with everything we needed to work on the shower. We began by spreading a non-toxic cleaner on the walls and the floor to help scrub off the dirt more effectively. Our specialists also steam cleaned the entire shower stall with a 275-degree vapor steamer, so no traces of mold remained between the tiles when it was time to seal the grout.

For this step, we applied ColorSeal to all the grout lines on the walls, successfully restoring their original dark gray color. At the client's request, we used white sealant on the floor since she wanted the floor's grout to stand out more after all those weeks of discoloration. On top of being available in multiple colors, our sealant provides lasting protection against external elements, so grout cleaning brings more satisfying results. It repels hard water, soap scum, mold, mildew, grime, and more, simplifying routine maintenance in all parts of the house.

Once we were done, the entire shower looked spotless, including the ceramic tiles on the threshold. It was everything the client had hoped for and more, and she praised our crew's expertise after admiring the shower stall from all sides. She was eager to recommend our services to more people in Kiawah Island.

The client asked about ways to counter the effects of hard water around her bathroom surfaces, so our techs gave her a series of useful recommendations. Our team started by introducing pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner, a high-quality formula that removes more dirt in less time without exposing hard surfaces to corrosive ingredients. Unlike bleach, DIY solutions, and soap-based cleaners, our product has no acidic imbalances. Instead, it adds to the protection of the grout because it doesn't wear down the sealant over time. Our cleaner is also free of toxic fumes, so homeowners can use it freely without worrying about contaminating their living spaces.

Our second recommendation was to make a habit of wiping any liquid residue sitting on the shower floor, like pools of water or traces of soap between the tiles. A towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee is the best option to do this because you can catch more dirt without damaging the tiles in the process.

When it comes to ways to counter moisture buildup, our techs recommended leaving the bathroom door ajar during the day to boost the circulation of fresh air. Opening the windows also helps ensure that all parts of the house are properly ventilated.
