Ceramic Tile, Floor Cleaning and Waxing, Bathtub Restoration
About us
I am currently a one person operation. I offer free estimates. Payment due on completion of work, check or cash. I am looking to hire skilled individuals who are detail oriented and customer minded.
Business highlights
33 years of trusted experience
Services we offer
Cleaning/sealing grout & tile. Staining/re-color grout. Natural stone cleaning/sealing. Natural stone restoration/polishing. Enduroshield/permanent protection for grout, tile, glass, stainless steel. Tile & grout repair. Re-caulking. Remove & replace grout (regrouting).
I am appalled by results. My grout lines are 1/16” but some are now more than 6/16” due to the shotty workmanship. I was willing to pay the small fortune in order to have a professional freshen up the grout lines. Unfortunately, the results are anything but. When I reached out to the individual that performed the work I was told that in time over the next year or so it will start to clean off of the tile and that there are not brushes small enough for 1/16” grout lines. This was NEVER previously told to me because I would not have proceeded with the work. I am devestated by the results for as much money as I spent and would do anything if I could go back to the way it was before.
Description of Work: I recently had my bathroom grout repaired by the Kansas City (Southwest) location.

Andrew was very responsive and took extra care to detail out costs, timeframes and processes to me prior to the work. He was very professional and did a fine job with all the tasks he had estimated, then he actually did a few extras places without charging. His work was great and I was very pleased with both the results and the interaction with Andrew.

This job went very well indeed. While the Grout Dr. does not guarantee against the return of mold beyond a couple of days, he provided great advice about how to maintain the job and the tile and 6 months later the grout looks just as new as when he first finished the job. As a courtesy, he removed the old glass door to our 3x3 shower stall and filled in the holes in the tile where it was anchored. He was courteous, friendly, and fully lived up to my expectations. I will definitely use him again for similar services.
Description of Work: Completely re-grouted 3x3 tile shower enclosure including removing out grout and re-caulking around the tray. He also partially re-grouted a few problem areas in the tiled tub surround in another bathroom.

Upon calling the company, Andrew (the proprietor), came by to look at the work I wanted done, gave me an estimate (which was very fair), and we set up a date for him to do the work. On that date, he gave me a courtesy call about an hour before he was set to arrive, was prompt, courteous, tidy, efficient, and all In all did a fantastic job on my shower stall which needed some regrouting, resealing, and some cleaning. I would definitely use his services again and would recommend him to anyone needing a "grout doctor!"

Amazing results! Super happy with the work. My white tile grout has never been this clean no matter what I did to it. Thanks again! Well worth the money. The resealing of the shower fixed the leak and now we can use it again.

Only one person came and he worked over a period of two days. He did a very nice job. Our master shower need a lot of cleaning and regrouting. After we asked him to also check our master tub, he sealed it up without charging us. We thought he was reasonable and he did good work.

Please do not use this service. I had this company seal grout/caulk tub last summer. At the time of the original service, I had to have the workman return for poor quality. One year later, I have mildew problems, discolored grout and cracks. While I understand that leaking water is the culprit, Andrew (who came out to my residence today 8/31/2010) was extremely rude and adversarial. He was late arriving for our appointment, then became very defensive regarding the problems I was having. "THIS is not OUR fault" and "YOU are not under warranty" were pointedly repeated. I asked that he leave my residence IMMEDIATELY because of how rude he was being. Overall, I can't say I was impressed with the original work, the competency of his associate or the treatment I received from this company. Also, he had pulled the tub spout off to inspect and then was actually going to leave without putting it back together. Incredibly unprofessional.....

Response from The Grout Doctor
This response would have come sooner, had I known before recently, how this member felt about my company. My company continually works to maintain excellence, especially in situations where an issue may arise. My company only uses the best products available for our industry and some of our products even exceed industry standards . No caulking , grout or grout sealer can withstand a plumbing leak such as in this case. It occurred to me upon my visit 8/31/10 that the tub spout was leaking behind the wall. I then brought it to the attention of this member and when asked for a solution I offered to make repairs for little as possible. Since it was out of warranty and because the real problem wasn't due to the fault of my company, only a small charge would apply. This member got upset and to my surprise she threw me out of her house. This is bothersome to me, for you the customer are the most important to any business, especially mine. I have an excellent reputation with thousands of businessess , realitors, and home owners who repeatily use my company and also refer us. I have built this relationship well over 12 years as a Grout Doctor. Thank you for your time in reading this ,because you did not have to. I have lots of references for anyone who would like some. Sincerely, Andrew Worley( The Grout Doctor of Kansas City Metro.)

Mildew returned 2 months after they totally caulked. They came out and re-did it again and the results were the same...mildew returned. Had original shower builder come out and they told us that a latex caulk was used rather than silicone and thats what caused the mildew to return so quickly.

Response from The Grout Doctor
Per my initial visit to this members home I had given him three choices on what he could use to solve his problems. He could go back with grout or use a caulking (latex or silicone). In doing so I explained the advantages and disadvantages to each product and let him make a decision on what best suited him. He informed me that the latex was what he preferred. That's what we used per his request. The Grout Doctor warranties work and gladly stands behind that! Sincerely, Andrew Worley (The Grout Doctor of Kansas City Metro) P.S. The service cost was not $200.00. The actual cost was $100.00.

ANDREW DID EXCELLENT WORK. THE SHOWER STALL WAS SO FULL OF MOLD THAT IT WAS UNUSABLE. IT IS NOW GLEAMING WHITE, LOOKS BRAND-NEW, & THE MOLDY ODOR IS GONE. ANDREW KEPT OUR FAMILY'S INCONVENIENCE TO A MINIMUM WITH THE WAY HE SCHEDULED THE REPAIRS. ALSO, THIS WAS THE ONLY COMPANY I FOUND THAT COULD RENEW THE SHOWER PAN. (REPLACING IT WOULD HAVE REQUIRED VERY COSTLY REPAIRS TO THE TILE & WE KNEW OF NO OTHER WAY TO GET RID OF THE UGLY STAINS IT HAD.) THEIR PRICE FOR THE GROUT & CAULK WORK WAS LOWER THAN OTHER COMPANIES WHO BID ON THE JOB. MANY COMPANIES WOULDN'T EVEN BID ON JUST A REPAIR, WANTING ONLY TO ENTIRELY REPLACE THE TILE FOR THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS.
Description of Work: REMOVED & REPLACED ALL GROUT & CAULK, & CLEANED ALL TILE IN A SHOWER STALL & A TUB/SHOWER. REPLACED A FEW PIECES OF BROKEN TILE. CLEANED, SANDED, & REFINISHED FIBERGLASS SHOWER PAN. RE-CAULKED BEHIND BATHROOM & KITCHEN SINKS.

ANDREW WAS VERY HELPFUL AND EXPLAINED ALL OF OUR OPTIONS FOR THE BEST WAY TO REPAIR AND CARE FOR OUR TILE AND GROUT. HE GAVE US HIS CELL PHONE AND HE ALWAYS ANSWERED RIGHT AWAY (INSTEAD OF HAVING TO LEAVE MESSAGES, ETC.). HE WAS VERY EAGER TO EARN MY BUSINESS AND WANTED US TO BE SATISFIED WITH HIS WORK. HE ALSO GUARANTEES HIS WORK FOR 12 MONTHS AND IS WILLING TO COME BACK AND DO TOUCH UPS, WITHIN THAT TIMEFRAME IF NECESSARY.
