SEALING AND RESTORATION
As a homeowner, there are a multitude of tasks that need to be completed in order to ensure your home looks great and lasts through the ages. From your roof to your floor and everything in between, you want your house to be functioning at its best, and when it comes to your tile, The Groutsmith is the team you can rely on for tile sealing and restoration.
WHAT IS IT?
Sealing tile and grout is one of the most important ways to keep your tile lasting. Our groutsmiths will use high-caliber, professional-grade sealant, and apply it carefully to your tile.
HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
The Groutsmith uses only the best products on the market. Working with us means your sealant is guaranteed for a year.
WHY DO IT?
With the right sealant, your grout and tiles won’t wear down or loosen. Grout is porous, and takes in liquids if it’s unsealed — over time, this can affect the tile as a whole, as the adhesiveness is no longer effective.
Tile floors that receive a lot of foot traffic should get tile sealing at least once a year — businesses or other commercial spaces might need tile sealing more often than that. Whether it’s for your backsplash or your floor, The Groutsmith provides craftsmanship and exceptional products to help your tile look great, and last a long time. Call us today for a free estimate!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is tile restoration and why do I need it in Pensacola, FL?
Tile restoration combines deep cleaning, grout repair, sealing, and refinishing to bring worn, stained, or aged tiles back to life. In Pensacola’s humid climate, salt air and moisture can accelerate grout staining and tile wear. Restoration improves appearance and strengthens surfaces against future damage. Groutsmith’s team assesses your tiles and proposes the best restoration plan based on condition and usage. Results are long-lasting when paired with routine maintenance.
How long does tile restoration and sealing take?
Most tile restoration jobs vary depending on room size and condition, but typical residential spaces finish within a day or two. Technicians begin with cleaning and grout restoration before applying professional-grade sealants. Sealant drying times vary but usually allow normal use after 24 hours. Larger commercial projects may require phased scheduling. Groutsmith provides estimated timelines when scheduling your project.
Will sealing help prevent stains on my tile floors?
Yes. Professional grout sealing and tile sealing create a protective shield that keeps spills and dirt from penetrating grout lines and tile surfaces. This is especially helpful in kitchens, bathrooms, and entryways where stains commonly occur. Sealed surfaces stay cleaner longer and are easier to maintain with routine care. Consult your technician about the best sealant for your specific tile type.
Should I seal my tile as well as grout?
In many cases, sealing grout is essential, and some porous tiles also benefit from sealing. Groutsmith evaluates whether your tiles are porous and need sealing during the assessment. Porcelain and non-porous tiles typically don’t require sealant. When both tile and grout are sealed correctly, your surfaces resist moisture, staining, and wear even better. Your estimate includes recommendations for sealing both appropriately.
How often should restoration and resealing be done?
Restoration frequency depends on traffic, exposure, and tile type. For most residential tile floors in Pensacola, professional tile restoration and resealing every 1–3 years keeps surfaces protected. High-traffic areas and commercial spaces may need more frequent attention. Signs you need restoration include discoloration, grout breakdown, or water penetration. Regular cleaning and follow-up sealing extend restoration benefits.
