This Gorgeous Floor in Carrboro Received All the Quality of Our Grout Sealing Services

April 25, 2025

A homeowner in Durham kept getting stressed over her kitchen floor, and sadly, things didn't get better after hours of scrubbing. The grout's discoloration visibly clashed with the tiles, fully outshining the ceramic's beautiful design. The owner wanted the floor to exude warmth and elegance, but it was impossible to get the desired effect with the grout's reddish-brown color.


She started looking for a grout sealing service in Carrboro after overhearing a colleague about recoloring her grout. The homeowner checked different companies online, but nothing came close to Sir Grout Durham. She was impressed by our picture gallery. It was reassuring to know that she could have the assistance of a seasoned grout restoration professional. So, the homeowner contacted us after learning all she needed to know about our services, and our specialists didn't take long to get in touch with her.

Following her request, we went to her house the next day to inspect the kitchen floor, always donning Sir Grout's logo on our uniforms. Our techs started by assessing the grout and discoloration and checking for damage in any lines. The homeowner had stopped the dirt from gathering on the grout pores, but the surface still suffered from repeated exposure to soap-based cleaners.

We stressed the importance of avoiding chemical-based cleaners to stop the discoloration of tile and grout surfaces since their ingredients can cause extensive damage. The best solution was a thorough sealing service with our acrylic-based sealant, so our specialists reviewed each restoration step before providing a no-obligation quote. The client had expected this outcome from the beginning, and she expressed her wish to have the grout sealed as soon as possible, so we wasted no time before confirming the date for the restoration.  

Two days later, our team was again inside the client's kitchen, preparing the equipment to work on the floor. We began the restoration by applying a surface-safe cleaner on the surface. With the help of a high-speed scrubbing machine, our specialists removed the dirt on the grout and dust specs that remained on the ceramic surface.

To complete the process, we applied ColorSeal to all the grout lines and recolored the surface to suit the floor's classic layout. This signature sealant wards off external elements and liquids, preventing most stains that usually affect grout surfaces in high-traffic areas. It repels water, grease, mold, mildew, and grime while more effectively preserving the grout's brand-new look.  

Then, our experts buffed the floor with tile sealant to enhance its durability against external damage and bring out the ceramic's pearly color. The client was delighted by our work: she praised our crew's expertise and took her time admiring the surface from all angles, remarking on its effect on the kitchen. She also promised to recommend Sir Grout Durham to all her relatives living in Carrboro.

Our specialists took a moment to share some additional cleaning advice, starting with the perfect alternative to replace off-the-counter cleaners. In these cases, we always recommend using pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner because you can ensure quick results without causing unnecessary surface damage. Our cleaner's formula combines high-quality ingredients to provide the best results on different surfaces, like stone, grout, and ceramic tiles so that it can be used without harsh formulas. This way, you can forget the risks of chemical cleaners and simplify your chores.  

As we explained, homeowners must let the cleaner sit on the surface for a few minutes before the dirt grows loose. Then, it's all about using non-abrasive tools like a towel or a fresh mop to remove the marks on the floor. Remember that your tools must be washed appropriately beforehand, or you'll never stop finding new stains on your floor.

Our techs also told the clients that opening the windows and doors every day helps circulate fresh air and prevents many of the effects of moisture buildup, such as the spread of mold and mildew around hard-to-reach areas.
