MOULDY SHOWER ROOM CLEANING AND SEALING IN HAZEL GROVE, STOCKPORT, SK6

On this job we got called in by a landlord, who was concerned over the bathroom state in one of his rental housesin Hazel Grove, Stockport. Hazel Grove is a suburb in the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport , Greater Manchester , England, close to the Peak District national park. Historically part of Cheshire , until 1836 the area was known as Bullock Smithy.

After doing our free survey service and completing a cleaning tester on this travertine tilewall, we quickly agreed on price and date to complete the work.

Travertine Shower Wall Tiles and Grout Cleaning

For cleaning I couldn't use our usual acid based product because travertineis acid sensitive, so we went with our alkaline cleaner. The alkaline cleaner worked as a treat but it was a bit tricky job because of the small stone tiles they had. We left the cleaning solution to dwell on tiles and grout for couple of minutes and then scrubbed with our grout brush. After Cleaning all soiled water and chemicals got rinsed off with clean water.
When all the cleaning was done, it was time to remove the mouldy silicone. For this I used a sharp knife and a window scraper. Again it was a bit tricky because of the small stone tiles.

Travertine Tiles and Grout Sealing

All silicone sealant removed around the bath, I dried the walls with my heat gun and filled in couple of cracks with flexible grout.
Then it was time to seal the travertine tiles and grout with colour enhancing impregnating sealer which leaves a matt finish and penetrates in the surface. The walls took 2 coats of the sealer and when finished, all the sealer left on tiles had to be wiped down with a soft cotton cloth.

Sealing finished, I applied extra durable mould resistant siliconesealant all around the bath and between walls.
When I sent the pictures to the landlord, then he was more then happy with the result and vowed to use our services for he's next houses as well.
