Our Hard Surface Restoration Services Make a Floor in Manhattan Look Flawless

March 17, 2024

A homeowner in Manhattan had spent many weeks despairing over his home's porcelain floor. The floor had a beautiful symmetric pattern that had stayed covered by a carpet for way too long. As a result, the fabric had stuck to the surface, and all the residues had covered the porcelain surface until it was marred beyond recognition. The homeowner had initially tried to scrub off the dirt, but he worried about damaging the floor's delicate surface in the process. Because of this, he had been unable to improve, or at least conceal the floor's unflattering look.


He knew that the safest approach was getting input from a professional. While asking his peers about hard surface restoration services in Manhattan someone introduced him to Sir Grout Manhattan. Later, the homeowner checked our website and was amazed by all our areas of expertise. After reading some customer reviews, he made up his mind and contacted us via our online scheduling option to schedule an in-home evaluation.

On the appointed date, our specialists went to the client's home to inspect the floor. There was no denying that the porcelain surface had seen better days. Most of it was covered with pieces of fabric and layers of glue. Our specialists had trouble discerning the floor's pattern because most of the colors were thoroughly distorted. They knew right away that only Sir Grout's professional equipment could strip the floor of all the residue that had adhered to the surface. Generic cleaners would only make it easier for external elements to seep into the pores, which is why our techs recommended to stop using bleach and soap-based formulas in the future. Because foot traffic could also cause problems later on, our techs also offered to seal the floor's surface to preserve the porcelain against wear and tear. Knowing that there was a specific method to remove the carpet of the floor, the client decided to schedule a new appointment for the restoration.


Our specialists came back with all the necessary equipment for the job. The first step was stripping the floor. Our techs deep cleaned the floor's surface and went over the process several times to remove all the layers of glue. For this, they soaked the porcelain with a pH-neutral cleaner that loosened up the embedded residue after a couple of minutes. Our product is effective against dirt and any external elements attached to a hard surface, like grime, soil, and other substances. As the cleaner did its job, our specialists ran a high-speed scrubber several times until there was no trace of dirt or marks covering the porcelain's vibrant colors.

Then, they sealed the grout with TileArmor to enhance the protection on the delicate surface. Our sealant combines high-rate ingredients to preserve hard surfaces through all daily chores, warding off liquids, dirt, mold, and mildew without prompting gradual deterioration on the floors. It also helps preserve the surface's natural shine, as shown by the porcelain's glowing surface after our specialists were done buffing the floors.

Needless to say, the client was ecstatic when he saw the result of the restoration. The floor's surface looked like never before, and its colorful design was once again in full view. After having lost hope in ever getting his old floor back, the client was endlessly grateful to our specialists and promised to tell everyone he knew in Manhattan about our restoration services.

Before leaving the client's house, our specialists shared some additional cleaning recommendations. They warned the client about the gradual harm caused by generic cleaners and recommended switching to pH-neutral products like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Made with high-quality ingredients to guarantee the best results, our product's formula removes dirt and all types of liquids without leaving the surface exposed to future damage. It's also safer for people and pets because there are no toxic fumes released into the air during each cleaning session. Our techs also recommended keeping an eye on the home's indoor ventilation to prevent moisture buildup, mold, and mildew. After taking note of all our recommendations, the client thanked us once again for our services.
