Expert Caulking in Newington, CT Gave This Old Shower a New Look

December 23, 2021

A homeowner from Seaside Heights, NJ, was doing some improvements on his shower. He wanted to remove the glass door and replace it with a frameless one. However, the surface had endured years of constant use and looked run-down. The owner was not happy with this situation, but he didn't want to remodel the entire shower. After considering his options, he decided to look for professional assistance. Thankfully, he found our Seaside Heights Hard Surface Restoration Services and we saved the day once again.


The owner heard about Sir Grout Central New Jersey from a friend and decided to visit our website to learn more about us. After browsing our picture gallery, and reading the positive testimonials we receive every day, he called us, explained the situation, and asked for a free evaluation.

A few days after receiving his request, we visited his house and provided the in-home consultation. The owner was expecting us, so he quickly showed us the affected area. As soon as we entered the shower, we noticed the surface had suffered severe deterioration. The grout lines were full of dirt and the composite floor was in poor shape. We explained this kind of floor is very popular among the residents of this area, but due to its composition, maintenance is challenging. Upon closer inspection, we learned the grout needed sealing. It was necessary to apply a special sealant to prevent further degradation.

The thorough inspection gave us the insight to offer a solution. Since we had determined regular cleaning methods wouldn't work, this job would require Sir Grout's professional process and high-end equipment. We offered our hard surface restoration services to rectify the damage and give the shower a full renovation. To prove the efficacy of our procedure, we tested our products on the surface. The awe-inspiring results convinced the owner to hire us.

On the appointed date, we returned with everything we needed to restore the shower. To ensure optimal results, our process follows a series of steps. First, we cleaned the surface using our exclusive cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Our product is pH-neutral, doesn't leave a residue, and offers many other benefits. After scrubbing out the soiling, we addressed the composite floor.

These kinds of surfaces have a texture, and because of that, they can get dirty quickly, building soap-scum, mold, and mildew. For this reason, maintenance becomes a headache for many homeowners. To fix the issues, we chemically cleaned the surface, degreased it, and finished with a steam cleaner. The composite floor had been fully revamped and the next step was the sealing process.

The owner requested a matching color, and afterwards, we sealed the grout lines with Sir Grout's flagship sealant, ColorSeal. Our top-of-the-line product provides unmatched protection and long-lasting results. It wards off dirt, grime, and reduces deterioration from daily use. ColorSeal greatly improves the surface by giving the grout a brand-new appearance. It comes in a wide range of colors, so our clients can choose the most appropriate for their surfaces. Our work yielded a successful restoration, the shower had received a complete overhaul, and everything looked great.

After achieving our goal, we showed the results to our client. The owner was extremely happy with the renewed appearance of the shower. He was thrilled because all of the problems were gone. After thanking us, he told us our performance surpassed all his expectations, and before we left, he assured us he would contact us for any other future projects.

Showers endure constant daily use and can deteriorate quickly. For this reason, it's essential to follow our recommendations for optimal maintenance procedures. We suggested establishing a weekly cleaning routine using only pH-neutral, soap-free cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner.

Our product is made with high-quality ingredients and offers outstanding results. It's non-toxic and safe for everyone in the house, including pets. Avoid using soap-based cleaners because they leave a residue that seeps into the grout lines. This contributes to decay and can produce issues like stains or discoloration. We don't recommend cleaning solutions with acidic properties either. The harsh agents and chemicals in these substances can have a negative impact on the surface.

Mold and mildew are dangerous, and they can become a threat for everyone in the house. To prevent this problem, make sure to provide a source of fresh air by leaving the door ajar or window open. After using the shower, dry the surface using a squeegee, a towel, or a terry cloth rag. Squeegeeing regularly also helps to minimize the accumulation of dirt.
