If you’ve ever scrubbed your tile floors or shower and wondered why the grout still looks dirty—this one’s for you. Grout is sneaky. It traps grime, absorbs spills, and even changes color over time. But with the right professional restoration, that dingy grout can look brand new again.
Here are three things most homeowners (and even some cleaning companies) don’t know about grout—and how Stone Restoration Services Detroit can clean it, fix it, and even change its color for a completely refreshed look.
1. Grout Is Like a Sponge for Dirt
Grout isn’t solid like tile—it’s porous, meaning it absorbs whatever touches it: mop water, soap scum, grease, and even bacteria. Over time, all that builds up into discoloration and odors.
How pros fix it: Our technicians use professional, high-pressure extraction tools and safe, non-abrasive cleaners to lift out embedded dirt and contaminants. The result? Fresh, bright grout lines that no amount of mopping could ever achieve.
2. Discolored Grout Isn’t Always “Dirty”
Sometimes that blotchy or yellowed look isn’t dirt—it’s damage. Over time, grout can fade unevenly, cure irregularly, or absorb minerals from cleaning products and hard water.
How pros fix it: With grout color sealing, we can match your original color—or completely change it. Want to go lighter, darker, or something new altogether? No problem. Color sealing restores uniform color, adds long-lasting stain protection, and makes future cleaning easier than ever.
3. Cracked or Missing Grout = Hidden Moisture Problems
Tiny grout cracks might not seem like a big deal, but they can let water seep beneath your tile, leading to loose tiles, mold, or even subfloor damage.
How pros fix it: Our restoration team repairs or replaces damaged grout, reseals the area, and prevents further moisture intrusion. The fix is clean, seamless, and built to last.
