TRANSFORM YOUR SHOWER BATH WITH PROFESSIONAL TILE, SILICONE SEALANT AND GROUT RESTORATION

Quality Tile Care • Sep 26, 2024

At Quality Tile Care, we recently took on a shower bath restoration project that turned out to be a perfect example of how professional tile and stone cleaning can breathe new life into your bathroom without the need for costly replacements. If you’ve been living with discoloured grout lines, dirty tiles, or mouldy silicone, there’s a more affordable and effective solution. Read on to see how we restored this shower bath to its former glory!

 

The Problem: Dirty Grout and Mouldy Sealant

 

In this project, the shower bath area had been suffering from the common issues faced by many homeowners:

  • Dirty and discoloured grout lines that detract from the overall appearance of the bathroom.
  • Mouldy silicone sealant around the bath and in the corners of the shower area, which is not only unsightly but can also lead to bigger issues like water damage if left untreated.

These are typical signs of wear and tear in bathrooms, especially in areas exposed to high levels of moisture. While it might be tempting to consider a full replacement, we know that expert cleaning and restoration can be just as effective—and much more cost-efficient.

The Solution: Deep Cleaning, Sealing, and Professional Silicone Replacement

 

For this restoration project, our team at Quality Tile Care followed a precise, multi-step process:

  1. Deep Cleaning the Tiles and Grout:
    We used professional-grade tile and stone cleaning products to remove years of dirt and grime from the tiles and grout lines. Our specialised equipment ensures that even the toughest stains are lifted, leaving the surface fresh and clean.
  2. Grout Restoration:
    Grout lines often bear the brunt of moisture damage. We carefully deep-cleaned the grout, restoring its original colour and eliminating discolouration.
  3. Impregnating Sealer Application:
    Once the tiles and grout were cleaned, we applied a premium impregnating sealer to protect the area from future staining and moisture penetration. This step is crucial in keeping the shower bath looking great for years to come, as it acts as a barrier against dirt, soap scum, and water.
  4. Silicone Sealant Replacement:
    The final step was to replace the old, mouldy silicone sealant. We carefully removed the old sealant and applied new, high-quality silicone around the bath and in the corners of the shower area. The result? A fresh, clean finish that prevents future mould growth and seals the area from water damage.

The Result: Like-New Bathroom

 

The before-and-after photos of this project tell the whole story—what was once a tired and worn-out shower bath now looks like new. The deep cleaning process completely transformed the appearance of the tiles and grout, while the new silicone sealant gave the area a crisp, clean look. Our client was thrilled with the results, and their bathroom is now a space they can enjoy again.

Outdoor porcelain tile patios add elegance and functionality to any home, creating the perfect space for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying the beauty of nature. However, patios are continually exposed to weather, foot traffic, and daily wear and tear. This leads to a gradual buildup of grime, algae, and mud that can make the surface dull, slippery, and unsafe. Recently, Quality Tile Care took on a project in the lovely town of Alderley Edge, Cheshire, where we transformed a porcelain tiled patio back to its original glory with our thorough, professional deep cleaning service. The Initial State: A Patio in Need of Serious Cleaning The Alderley Edge patio had not been deep cleaned for quite some time, and the impact was evident. Mud, algae, and dirt were layered across the tiles, turning them dangerously slippery. With the goal of restoring the patio’s look and ensuring its safety, the homeowner reached out to us. At Quality Tile Care, we offer top-tier tile and grout cleaning services for both residential and commercial spaces across Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Derbyshire, and Liverpool, including locations like Altrincham, Stockport, Wilmslow, Knutsford, and beyond.

PATIO RESTORATION IN WESTHOUGHTON BY QUALITY TILE CARE. Patio cleaning, regrouting with Easyjoint
by Quality Tile Care 17 Sept, 2024
At Quality Tile Care, we love bringing outdoor spaces back to life, and our recent patio renovation project in Westhoughton showcases our dedication to quality and detail. This patio had seen better days, with algae, black spots, and worn-out grout making it look tired and aged. We're thrilled to share how we completely transformed it into a fresh and inviting space once again. Step 1: Old Grout Removal Our renovation process began with the careful removal of the old brush-in grout. The existing grout had been incorrectly applied by a previous business and was already coming loose in several areas. We meticulously removed all the old grout, ensuring a clean and smooth surface to work with. This step was crucial in preparing the patio for a fresh application, setting the foundation for a long-lasting finish.
