The Beauty of This Shower Was Enhanced with a Grout Recoloring Job in Manhattan, NY

August 23, 2017

People can spend hours choosing the right tiles for their bathroom. They will take things like size and texture into consideration and will even go from one place to another till they find the ones that make them happy. However, one thing that hardly gets any attention and that can make the biggest difference is grout color. People tend to choose lighter grout colors, but that is not always the best option, especially when you have dark tiles like this homeowner. The problem was that the contrast with the grout's original color was too strong. Instead of letting the colors of the tile shine through, the white grout overshadowed the tile's colors. The homeowner did not like how this looked, and he was even thinking about changing the tiles, but when he saw the overall cost, he decided to find another solution.


He looked at pictures of bathrooms with black tiles online, and he realized that he could change the color of his grout to match the tile. So, he searched for a Manhattan grout recoloring service. He found Sir Grout Manhattan among the first search results and decided to browse our website. He was amazed by the before and after pictures he saw on our website and also read about our grout recoloring service. The homeowner called and scheduled an appointment for an estimate with our team.

When the team arrived at the house, they first inspected the bathroom and talked to the homeowner about their plan of action. They explained that they could change the grout color with Epoxy ColorSeal, our proprietary sealer that recolors grout and makes it water-, stain-, mold-, and mildew-resistant while making it look like new. They proceeded to show him the color samples that would best match his tile so he could choose one. The team applied three samples so he could see how the floor would look like, and he picked the one that satisfied him the most. They scheduled a new appointment to carry out the service. He was thrilled because now he could improve the look of his bathroom.

The team returned a few days later to start the job. They began by applying a pH-neutral cleaner and used a gentle, high-speed scrubber and vapor steam cleaning to remove the dirt. Then, they applied Epoxy ColorSeal in the shade chosen by the homeowner and epoxy caulk around the floor perimeter. Once the job was finally done, they showed it to the homeowner. When he saw his bathroom, he was more than delighted! He couldn't believe how our team was able to restore the color of the grout and made it look like never before.

Before the team left, they gave the homeowner some recommendations to maintain his grout looking like new. They recommended him to use only pH-neutral cleaners and to use liquid soap instead of bar soaps to prevent soap scum from building up. Even though Epoxy ColorSeal protects the grout from water, stains, and mold, you can never be too careful.

It is important to take the time to choose not only the right tile but the right grout color as well. If you picked the wrong grout color, that doesn't mean you have to renovate the tiles and grout. Grout color can be changed with Epoxy ColorSeal, giving it a brand a new look.
