Our Stone Honing and Polishing Services Gave these Bathrooms in Manhattan a Brand-New Appearance

January 20, 2018

Every homeowner wants to maintain their home in the best possible condition. This requires a lot of time, and it is especially difficult if you have a busy life. Why? Maintaining a house in perfect condition means paying attention to every single detail, and that is not an easy task. Additionally, it is very common for some indoor or outdoor areas of your house to deteriorate over time, including furniture, electrical appliances, floors, countertops, and more. A similar problem had prompted this client to look for the best stone honing and polishing in Manhattan, NY.


This married woman was very busy because of her child and work schedule. That is why she didn't have the time that she wanted or needed to deeply clean her house. However, she had a cleaning routine that she did on the weekends. She had been living in Manhattan for the last five years, and she always tried to maintain her home in perfect condition.

The woman had a few days off from work, and she wanted to dedicate her free time to deeply cleaning every room in her home. That same week, she went to a local store and bought a few things she needed for her home, including several cleaning products. The next day, she was ready to start deeply cleaning. As there were several different rooms that needed to be cleaned, she decided to take her time in each one.

First, she started cleaning the living room and kitchen. Next came the bedrooms. She left the bathrooms for last. The next day, the woman started to clean the floor in her child's bathroom. While she was cleaning it, she noticed that the concrete floor looked different than she remembered. The floor was dull, but she thought that the cleaning session would solve the problem. Then she started cleaning the other bathroom, and she noticed something was wrong with its floor, too. She looked at some photos on her cellphone of when the concrete floor was first installed in both bathrooms, and she was right. Both bathroom floors looked dull. She continued cleaning, but the bathroom floors did not look any different after she was finished.


She talked to her husband about the problem, and they both considered looking for a company to replace the floors. The wife, however, convinced him to wait and let her try to solve the problem by cleaning the bathroom floors several days in a row. After a few days and several cleaning sessions, the floors looked exactly the same. There was nothing more the woman could do to solve the problem. It was time to search for a company to replace them.

The couple started looking online for the company they were going to hire. Additionally, the wife called a good friend of theirs. She mentioned the problem they were experiencing and what they were thinking about doing to solve it. Their friend told her that Sir Grout Manhattan had done an excellent job with his bathroom floor several months earlier. The wife asked him about our services, and the friend suggested that she take a look at our website. As a result, the woman searched for our website online and saw several pictures of our previous work and read some testimonials from satisfied clients. The woman and her husband agreed that we were the best option they had to restore the floors, so she called to schedule a free, in-home evaluation.

On the day of the evaluation, our team arrived at the couple's home to offer the best possible solution. The woman had our technicians look at the floors she had been talking about, and they immediately noticed the dullness on the concrete and explained that this usually happens when homeowners use incorrect products and cleaning methods. Our experts offered our stone honing and stone polishing services to solve the problem, so they would not have to spend money on replacing the floor. The woman agreed right away and scheduled an appointment for us to get started.

On the day of the appointment, our specialists returned and got to work immediately. First, they applied our soapless, non-toxic, pH-neutral cleaner to remove deep-seated grime. After this, a high-speed scrubber was used to clean the surface. Then, our team used a steam cleaner on the hard-to-reach areas.

When our experts finished cleaning, they got to work on the floor. They used diamond pads of varying grits and polishing powder to give the floor an incredible finish. Next, our specialists did the same procedures in the other bathroom.

When their work was done, our experts showed the homeowners both bathrooms to see the results for themselves. They were delighted and said that both bathroom floors looked beautiful. The woman took a lot of photos to show them to the friend who had suggested hiring us. The couple thanked us for the wonderful service and mentioned that they would recommend our services to anyone who is experiencing similar problems.

Before leaving, our team of technicians gave them a few tips on how to take proper care of their bathroom floors. They recommended always using a soapless, pH-neutral cleaner. Additionally, our team advised them to never use acidic detergents to avoid damaging the floors. They also told the couple to always use a clean mop and to change their mop water frequently to prevent stains caused by dirty water.
