Our Experts Revamped a Shower in Marietta With Top-Notch Grout Sealing Services

June 13, 2025

After weeks of trying to stop the deterioration of her shower floor, a homeowner in Marietta gave up on bleach and traditional cleaners. The porcelain surface and parts of the grout were visibly affected by calcium that spread from around the sink. She was still set on finding a solution before the problem affected the rest of her shower, but by then, she knew that regular equipment and DIY were not the answer.


So, the owner decided to ask around to see if any of the people she trusted knew of a reliable grout sealing service in Marietta. One of her friends recommended Sir Grout Atlanta, and the homeowner completed her research online, reading through our website and checking the results in the picture gallery. She gave us a call sometime later, and our friendly agent helped secure an appointment with our crew.

We went to her house later that week for an in-home evaluation, as per the owner's request. She took us to the master bathroom and went over all the issues in her shower stall as we got ready for the inspection. The biggest problem was the thick layers of calcium that covered the grout around the sink. This obviously compromised the bathroom's hygiene while potentially causing structural issues on the shower's porcelain surface. There were hints of damage on all the joints, so we knew that the seams needed to be regrouted to stop moisture from seeping behind the tiles.

Our techs described Sir Grout's restoration process after going over our findings with the client. She thanked us for our insight, took a few minutes to evaluate our no-obligation quote, and requested a new appointment for the restoration.

On the appointed date, our specialists returned to her home and immediately started working on the shower floor. First, we used a pH-neutral cleaner to get the dirt loose, and from there, it wasn't hard to remove the calcium between the tiles, especially after our techs cleaned the shower with a 275-degree vapor steamer. Once we made sure that nothing obstructed the porous surface, we got ready to make the necessary repairs to the grout.

For these repairs, our experts installed water-resistant epoxy grout around the floor after carefully removing the caulk that had cracked on the joints. Then, we applied acrylic-based sealant to all the grout lines, enhancing their protection against external agents. Thanks to our high-end sealant, grout surfaces can look spotless for much longer because there's a barrier keeping mold, mildew, soap, and other liquids from seeping into the pores. The result made the floor layout stand out from the larger tiles on the walls, on top of restoring the grout's uniform color.

After applying tile sealant to the walls and the floor, our techs completed the shower's restoration, so we immediately called the client back into the bathroom. She was in awe after seeing the porcelain's new look. Beyond that, knowing that the grout had the right protection was a huge relief for her after weeks of worrying about the shower's structural integrity.

As we started putting away their equipment, our team went over some useful cleaning tips with the homeowner. Shower surfaces often demand more care because of constant exposure to water and soap. pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner represent the ideal solution to save time and get more satisfying results. Our cleaner works against mold, mildew, calcium residue, soap scum, and other common stains, removing all of it from the trickiest parts of a shower, like corner joints and the grout lines on the wall. This way, homeowners keep a successful cleaning routine without exposing themselves, children, and pets to fumes from chemical-based cleaners.

The right tools are just as important, which is why our crew recommended avoiding steel wool and sharp objects. When scraping off grime and mineral residue, a towel, a terry cloth, or a squeegee is the best way to get the desired result without risking the deterioration of porcelain tiles.

Our last pointer was to keep an eye on the room's air quality, especially if mold is a common occurrence around the seams. Cleaning turns into an uphill battle when you have to deal with moisture buildup, and constant circulation of fresh air is the best way to keep the worst of it at bay. An easy way to improve indoor ventilation is by opening the windows and doors nearby.
