Our Techs Made a Shower in Merrick Look Amazing After Our Grout Sealing Service

May 05, 2025

Routine cleaning had stopped yielding the desired results for a couple in Merrick, to the point that they were constantly worried about compromising the hygiene of their master shower. The effects of moisture buildup were particularly glaring on the shower walls, with large layers of soap scum that grew larger by the day. Meanwhile, the seams surrounding the white ceramic floor had started to show signs of decay, and this only increased the owners' concerns.


They both agreed that calling a professional grout sealing service in Merrick was the best way to prevent any structural damage to the shower, and by then, the couple already knew that they wanted to reinforce the shower grout against external elements. They started looking for options online and became interested in Sir Grout Nassau New York as soon as they visited our website for the first time. Following thorough research, the couple got in touch with our specialists and asked for an in-home evaluation.

We responded promptly to their request, arriving at their house later that week to look at the shower. Our specialists understood the couple's concern as soon as we started inspecting the shower. The beautiful brown walls were covered in efflorescence, and regular cleaners did little to remove the soapy residue from the ceramic. More importantly, parts of the seams had started to fall apart, making way for dirt and stale water to seep behind the tiles. Because of this, the floor's edges looked sticky and unstable, increasing the risk of accidents.

Our techs confirmed that the wall grout needed to be re-sealed and offered to repair the seams and corner joints during the restoration. Due to its porous nature, cement-based grout is particularly vulnerable to the effects of moisture buildup; the minerals in hard water can corrode the surface in no time when there's no sealant protecting the pores. The couple has suspected this for a while, so they were both on the same page when they accepted our offer at the end of the evaluation.

Following their request, we returned to the house a few days later for the restoration. First, we deep cleaned the shower stall with a pH-neutral formula, carefully scrubbing off the loose dirt without subjecting the ceramic to harsh treatment. Our crew also used a 275-degree vapor steamer to remove the mold that was stuck on the corner joints.

The grout on the walls needed a makeover, so our team used light brown sealant to prevent new marks on the surface. Our flagship ColorSeal works as a powerful barrier that keeps water and external elements away from the grout. That means that homeowners don't have to deal with the discoloration caused by mold, mildew, and efflorescence. The grout stays protected, and your shower surfaces make the best impression at all times.

It was time to fix the damage to the floor seams, so our techs installed water-resistant epoxy grout after removing the old caulk on the corners. Unlike cement-based grout, this epoxy formula is less porous and more durable against external sources of damage, from liquids to wear and tear.

This marked the end of the process, so our specialists called the clients back into the bathroom to show them the result. The couple loved the shower's new look, from the ceramic's vibrant colors to the smooth grout lines that made it look so much more striking. After seeing such amazing results, they both knew that they could confidently recommend Sir Grout Nassau New York to friends and acquaintances in the area.

Our crew had some additional recommendations for the couple at the end of the appointment, so we shared our tips with them while putting away our equipment. We started by introducing the benefits of pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. This surface-safe formula delivers the desired results in the most challenging parts of your home, including showers and other bathroom surfaces. It's effective against mold, mildew, soap scum, and other elements, removing the dirt in minutes without leaving any soapy residue behind. Likewise, there's no need to worry about toxic fumes permeating your bathroom spaces. Our cleaner guarantees enhanced benefits without any of the side effects you're used to seeing after using generic products.

Our techs also recommended making a habit of opening the windows and doors to keep the bathroom properly ventilated. This is the best way to ensure that your cleaning efforts don't go to waste in a matter of days. We also stress the importance of using non-abrasive tools when wiping out the dirt. You only need a clean towel or a squeegee to keep the surface from getting sticky over time, and you can do the job without risking scratch marks on the tiles.
