Grout Color Sealing / Minneapolis / St. Paul

Dirty grout lines?

When your grout lines are dirty, stained or discolored it makes the whole floor look bad.

How grout gets dirty and discolored

Grout is porous and virtually anything that is spilled, including dirty mop water, pet accidents, food or drinks, and soils carried in with foot traffic, will accumulate on the grout and penetrate into the pores, leaving you with floors that are perpetually dirty and unsanitary, no matter how often you clean them. In addition, grout can become stained from the bottom of the substrate. Even the most aggressive cleaning methods will not totally remove these stains.

Sealing the Grout is the Solution

Professional cleaning followed by sealing of the grout lines is the solution. Clear sealer waterproofs the grout inhibiting soils from being able to penetrate and get embedded into the grout. Clear sealer is exactly how it sounds. It provides protection without changing the look. This is an excellent option for brand new grout or grout that still has a uniform appearance after professional cleaning. But, what if there are permanent stains, bleached areas, or other discolorations? The ideal solution is color sealing.

Grout Color Sealing

Grout color sealing has advantages that clear sealing does not. Color sealing gives your grout a completely consistent color. Uniform color is just one benefit. Another very popular benefit of grout color sealing is that you can completely change the color of your grout to any color you want — from dark to light or vice versa.

Long term benefits

Once your grout is color sealed, the color sealer will prevent staining and make regular cleaning much easier and more productive. Even if you spill coffee, soy sauces, ketchup, etc., these spills will not stain the grout and will clean right up. In addition, color sealer has a constant-acting mildewcide for consistently cleaner floors compared to floors with unsealed grout lines.
