Beautiful Foyer Floor in Chicago Gets Restored by Our Stone Cleaning Experts

June 14, 2022

A resident of Chicago, IL, was fed up with the condition of his natural stone entrance. Thankfully, he found Sir Grout Chicago, and we were able to help him solve his problem. When the owner was cleaning his marble and terrazzo conglomerate foyer floor, he noticed that it had an unappealing appearance. Despite his best efforts, he saw no progress. In order to fix the surface, he tried a variety of DIY procedures he found online. Nothing seemed to work for him.


After some consideration, the owner decided to hire professionals. Thankfully, his search led him to us. While looking for stone cleaning services in Chicago, Illinois, he came across an advertisement of ours online and immediately went to check out our website. After checking through our before and after picture gallery and reading the positive feedback from our satisfied customers, he was convinced we were the best in town. He got in touch with us, explained the situation, and asked for a free in-home consultation.

At the owner's request, we went to his home to assess the natural stone floor. We were immediately aware of the problems. The floor was covered in wax and dirt as a result of years of improper maintenance. The entire surface took on an unappealing appearance. We determined that the surface needed to be polished. Following the examination, we came to the conclusion that regular cleaning would not provide the owner with the results he desired. To repair the surface, we would use a professional multi-step procedure and top-of-the-line equipment. We offered a stone cleaning service to eliminate all flaws and restore the stone's original beauty. The owner was satisfied with the offer and hired us without hesitation.

After the arranged appointment, we returned to restore the marble and terrazzo conglomerate foyer. We began our comprehensive stone cleaning process by scrubbing the surface with our unique stone-safe cleaner and a high-speed scrubber. Our product is pH-neutral, contains no harsh ingredients, and is safe for both stone and grout. Our cleaning effectively loosens the soiling, and our equipment scrapes it away. Then, to remove any dirt that had stuck, we steam cleaned the area. We were ready to hone the stone once the surface was absolutely clean. We used three sets of our specialized equipment to repair the damage, increasing the grit level of the diamond on each one. We continued to grind until there were no more signs of deterioration. We used special polishing powders to get the owner's desired glossy sheen. This process was repeated until the appropriate level of gleam was obtained.

Following the grout repair, we continued the sealing procedure. To ensure long-lasting results, we used Sir Grout's ColorSeal. Our top-of-the-line sealant comes with a lengthy range of benefits and provides unmatched protection. It repels dirt, grime, and other exterior impurities, preventing discoloration and other signs of deterioration. ColorSeal improves the appearance of the surface by giving the grout lines a new look and uniform color. When we were finished, the foyer floor looked magnificent, and the stone surface had regained its previous radiance.

Our client was ecstatic with the excellent results of our work. He was pleased with how smooth, prompt, and simple the procedure had gone. He expressed his gratitude and stated that he would recommend Sir Grout Chicago.

Foyers demand regular cleaning and maintenance. These surfaces are subjected to a great deal of daily use and can quickly deteriorate. Following our suggestions is the simplest way to keep these challenging areas looking wonderful. On a regular basis, we recommend using only soap-free cleaners like Sir Grout's Natural Hard Surface Cleaner. Our product is made from high-quality materials and does not leave any residue. It's also non-toxic and safe for pets. Acidic chemicals and soap-based cleaners should be avoided. These products contain strong chemicals that leave foam in the grout, and these compounds can harm stone tiles, causing dull patches, etching, and other problems. It's also critical to maintain the stone's dryness. Use a terry cloth or a towel to clean the floor. Steel wool and other abrasive tools should not be used on the tiles since they can damage them.
