A Marble Shower in Green Hills Regained Its Elegance After Our Grout Sealing Process
May 27, 2025
Despite constant maintenance and a strict cleaning routine, the shower of this Green Hills home had lost much of its beauty in only a few weeks. Much of the marble surface had grown discolored from soap and hard water, leaving yellow stains all over the floors and the seams. The biggest concern, however, was the amount of embedded dirt on the grout: the owner had tried to stop the problem early on, but races of efflorescence kept getting stuck to all the grout lines on the floor and the walls.
From there, the owner's top priority was finding the perfect solution to prevent further damage to the grout, so she went online looking forgrout sealing services in Green Hills, TN. After looking through the most popular companies in the area, Sir Grout Nashville was by far the one he felt the most confident about, so she contacted us via our website's online scheduler after choosing a date to have her shower inspected.
At her convenience, our team went to her house before the end of that week for an in-home evaluation. We inspected the marble shower, looking for cracks or any signs of structural damage, and this helped us confirm that the grout was unsealed. This meant that moisture could easily seep into the porous surface and gradually weaken the grout against the effects of wear and tear. As expected, parts of the floor needed to be regrouted, so we offered to return another day to make the necessary repairs, along with a thorough cleaning and sealing service. The homeowner was grateful for our assistance and satisfied with our no-obligation quote, so we left the house with a plan to return later with the necessary equipment for the job.
On the appointed date, our experts were back inside the client's house, getting ready for the restoration. We got to work right away, soaking the marble surface with a non-toxic cleaner before scrubbing off all the dirt between the tiles. We also used a 275-degree vapor cleaner to prevent the spread of mold on harder-to-reach surfaces. Our specialists cleaned the entire shower, including the threshold, the wall niche, and the glass door, so the improvement was evident by the halfway mark.
When it was time to restore the grout, our techs installed our water-resistant epoxy solution to repair the damage to the floor. Then, we revamped the lines on the walls with our signature ColorSeal, recoloring the surface to match the tile layout. Thanks to our signature sealant, grout surfaces can stay spotless through weeks of moisture and wear and tear. Its protection works against water, soap scum, grime, mold, mildew, and even the harsh effect of UV rays, making routine cleaning much more satisfying for homeowners.
After completing the process, our specialists showed the result to the homeowner. She loved the shower's new appearance and remarked that we'd brought the marble surface back to life. She also promised to contact us whenever he started seeing signs of decay on any of his bathroom surfaces.
