After calling the main number and leaving a message, I was not called back so I went to the website and left a request there...that was answered the same day. Larry came out and gave me a quote the following day which was reasonable. He was very professional and took care to cover his shoes when he was entering/leaving the house so he wouldn't track any mud on the carpet. He explained in detail what he would do. I asked what the next step was and he told me that Mark would call me the next day. Mark did not call so I called him and was scheduled with John the following day. John came out and spent the entire day ripping out all the old chaulk, the cracked tiles, and the cracked grout. He did a fantastic job and kept me updated as he went along. We encountered a little glitch of water which he wanted to dry thoroughly before sealing everything back up. He left for the day and told me Mark would call the following week to schedule the final sealing. I had to call Mark...which I did and was scheduled the following day. John came back out and completed the job (total time from initial call to completion was a little over a week). It was a little bit more than the original estimate (which I was told and agreed to beforehand...<$50) and the shower looks wonderful. I gave them an "A" overall becasue at the end of the day, the shoer looks great. They delievered what they said for the price and I would use them again in the future. I highly recommend them. I The only watch out I would have is that you need to follow up yourself with phone calls to Mark. Also, they could do a better job with the clean up of the job area. The bathroom floor was left covered in dust which was then tracked in the house. Not a big deal but to get A's across the board these little things would go a long way!
Description of Work: Needed 3 tiles replaced in Master shower, all chaulk pulled out and replaced, and 4-5 spots regrouted. Also wanted the entire shower cleaned and sealed.

Larry came out to assess the job and give a quote. The quote was reasonable, so I contacted Mark to schedule an appointment. We were also replacing the glass door and the company glass company suggested the grout company take the door down, so we could have the tiles cleaned and grouted where the door was located. Mark said there would be an additional $25 added to the quote. I agreed. The job was completed on the scheduled day. My husband was home, so he signed that the job had been completed. The tile looked good. I did call Mark to ask why the caulk had not been placed all the way around the water fixtures and he said it would need to be open on the bottom to prevent leaks in the wall. Unfortunately, the caulk they used was wiped on the walls of the bathroom, splattered on our driveway and my husband's car. When I told Mark what happened, he did apologize and said he needed to know things like that. In the end, I did not get a discount for the mess left by the worker or an offer to have someone come out and clean up. He did however, tell me how to clean the caulk off the wall, driveway and car, which he said I should do soon, so it would not satin. When I pay a little over $500.00 for a job to be done, I do not expect, at 8 months pregnant, to be standing on a chair cleaning the walls of my bathroom, hosing down my driveway and helping my husband clean his car! Job was complete, but there was no professional follow through.
Description of Work: Clean and grout guest bathroom and master bathroom as well as seal master bathroom tiles. Also took glass bathroom door down.

I emailed grout medic to contact me to provide an estimate. I did not hear from them so after several days I called and left a message. I heard back within a couple of days and a time was scheduled for them to come do an estimate. They came, looked at the work and provided me an estimate. I then contracted with them to complete the work. There were more loose tiles than planned for, and the work took longer than planned by one day. There was some confusion about scheduling the work. Originally the tiles were to be removed and replaced on a Friday and they would return on the following Tuesday to polish and seal. I don't know if the extra tiles delayed the grout work but we were told someone would be at our home on Monday to do the grout work. When they did not arrive by the expected time I called to find out what had happened. A return call later in the day offered apology for the confusion and made arrangements to have someone come before end of day to get the grout done. The Tuesday work also took longer than expected and they were here from about 11am until almost 7:30pm. Mark was very careful about making sure the grout was properly tinted to our specifications. They were very nice and the final product looks very good.
Description of Work: Marble tiles on our solarium floor were loose and grout was cracking. The loose tiles were carefully removed, the old adhesive removed, the sub-floor repreped, the tiles replaced, regrouted, the grout sealed and the tiles polished.

Three years ago we were having problems with our grout cracking in part of our kitchen floor. We had it repaired by another company and they laid the new tile so it was 1/4 inch higher than the old so our floor was uneven and looked terrible. We called Grout Medic and they came out that evening and gave us an estimate and seemed very knowledgable. The work was done the next week. It looks fabulous and our floor is no longer uneven. He didn't break any tiles taking them up so was able to reuse all of them. We are very happy with the work!

Very professional and friendly technician. He worked hard and cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day. This company made my tile floors look amazing! I would not have guessed old tile could be restored to such a beautiful state.
Description of Work: I bought a condo that needs work. High on the list is bathroom remodels. Rather than gutting and starting from scratch, I want to preserve some of the look of the original tile. Mark was great. Called and scheduled a visit. He inspected the old tile and told me what could be done. We decided to completely replace the floor tile in a half bath because he could tell it was loose and had been damaged by water quite some time ago. He then could repair cracked tiles in the upstairs bath, clean it all up, and regrout. Also I had them clean and seal some slate at the entryway. One technician worked 2 days alone, and on the third day two men were here so it would all be finished. It looks wonderful!

An associate of Mark's arrived promptly at 10:00AM. He then worked all day until 5:00PM. The tile area looks brand new. We are more than satisfied. I would recommend this company to anyone needing tile work.
Description of Work: Our guest bath needed regrouting. I checked your list and found their name. Prior reviews were all positive. I contacted them by phone and several days went by so I contacted them online and got a quick response, arranged a date for an estimate. Mark came and gave us an estimate of $425 which I thought very reasonable and arranged to have the work done.

We called for an estimate and a technician came that same day (he was working in area). He spent a lot of time looking at the problem and taking notes. However, no one has ever called us with an estimate.
Description of Work: They were very prompt in sending a technician to look at our project. He was very courteous and spent about 1/2 hour surveying our floors that need repair. However, after about 3 weeks, no one was called to give us an estimate.

They came out and gave me a quote within 24 hours of my call, and did the work the very next day. I needed a quick turnaround, and really appreciated their responsiveness. They arrived promptly the next morning, and started right in to work. It was a big job, and took the better part of the day. They were careful to let me know how long I needed to let the grout dry before I could use the areas in question. Wow!!!! That's all I can say. The kitchen counter especially looks absolutely brand new. The grout in the laundry room hadn't been steam cleaned in 14 years - washed, but since the grout hadn't been sealed, it was looking pretty filthy. It is soooo much better now. I really appreciate the care they took, and the attention to detail. If I had been aware of their work before, I would have used them to do this years ago!

Mark's person called me in the morning, confirming he would be there. He called me when he was leaving. He commented that the tile did indeed need re-caulking. The workmanship was done well, clean up was beautiful (I couldn't tell anyone had been there except that it looked nicer in both areas). I appreciated having options, thanks, Mark.
Description of Work: I contacted The Grout Medic on 1/20/2012, Mark came by on 1/21 and gave me an estimate for: 1. Regrouting ceramic tile shower base in bathroom, and (I had had a leak, but it had dried and I didn't know where it was coming from) 2. Setting several tiles in backsplash area of kitchen sink. Mark came out and spent time with me and gave me options. Most importantly, he looked at the ceramic floor and wall area of my shower and determined that the initial installation job wasn't all that great, but he didn't see any grout areas that would be suspect in contributing to a leak. He suggested re-caulking the floor and wall seams. In the kitchen, I asked about replacing the whole backsplash, about 20 sq ft. The only difference would be that the square offset tiles would have been replaced with white subway tiles. Not including materials it would cost $550.00. He gave me the option of replacing the missing tiles for $30. Mark was very informative and straightforward. Professional. I contacted Mark on Sunday, 1/22, and agreed to the proposal. I went with the suggested re-caulk in the bathroom, and the replacement of a couple of tiles (after I went and found them at Home Depot).

I called and left a message to schedule an appointment for the estimate and did not hear back for several days. When I called again, I did get an immediate response and an apology for the delay in responding to the initial call. An appointment for an estimate was scheduled to occur within a few days and the person arrived on time. The work was scheduled for the following week and again the person arrived on time and completed the work to our satisfaction.

First of all, I would like to say that the WORK of the company is A+. I rated respnsiveness and punctuality based on the estimate process and trying to get in contact with them. The work is GREAT, then just need to clean up some of the office skills. I had a tub area where the caulking had turned black around the tub. In addition, the grouting was yellowing and soem was falling out,.Some of the caulking was moldy, too The tech person who came out to do the actual job was great. Not only did he lay down tarps in the bathroom, but he layed layed down tarps out into the hall about 6 feet past the bathroom. He was thorough and meticulous, and kept up informed as to the process and timing. When done, he had both of us inspect the work, before presenting the bill for payment.
Description of Work: They cleaned up the entire ceramic tile area of the bathtub. This included the ceramic tile itself and the caulking around the tub in in the joints.

After a disconnect on the first attempt to get a quote - my fault - I finally met with Mark. He was very courteous and efficient in his quoting process. After discussion with my wife, we called him and scheduled one part of the work he quoted. He put us right into the schedule to have our Master Bath Shower regrouted on the Friday before Christmas! His man showed up promptly that Friday morning, made instant friends with our three dogs, put on his booties, put down his drop cloths, and went right to work. Several hours later, we had a beautifully grouted shower stall! The grouting job is first class as is the caulking. Only two glitches in the entire process: 1. Mark said we needed to wait 24 hours after completion to use the shower. The service tech said 48 hours and showed it to us on the directions for use of the caulk. Had we not asked, we might have had a problem. 2. When I pulled out my plastic to pay, I was informed of the $30 fee for paying by Credit Card - which had not been previously mentioned. I objected and the fee was waived, but it was an unnecessary and unpleasant surprise. That fee should be stated up front or in the quote. Overall, we are VERY pleased with the work and will have the Grout Medic back for future projects. We were charged EXACTLY what was quoted and are happy with the results.
Description of Work: Quoted regrouting and recaulking Shower Stall in Master Bathroom. Also quoted repairing ceramic tile floor in same Master Bath. Went with the Shower Stall now and decided to do the floor in the Spring. Grout in shower had eroded over 15 years of yse and the caulk sealing was worn and had large gaps in it.

It was a good experience. The shower and kitchen floor look much, much better. The grout work was very well-done - the lines are straight and crisp - same for the caulk work. The kitchen grout is much, much improved. It is not quite as good as new, but they told me that in advance. The only hiccup was some minor communication issues in getting the estimate, but it was minor and overall the company was very responsive.
Description of Work: Re-grouting and re-caulked portions of shower. Steam-cleaned and sealed ceramic tile in kitchen.
Mark Gimmison, who prepared the estimate and was scheduled to do the job, apparently had a scheduling problem and first moved back the start time a few hours then had to use another person to do the job who arrived even later than scheduled. But the new repair person was friendly, professional, and did a great job. The cost matched the estimate. I am happy with his work.

I like what they did. They were the first company to come out and they gave me pictures of past work so I chose them because of the pictures they showed. They were friendly and cleaned up after themselves. They were good workers! The only problem was they were not on time but it was because they got caught in heavy traffic so I do not think that was their fault.

The results were excellent, and the price was very reasonable. Grout Medic is apparently a national company whose corporate offices are based in Southlake, Texas. Mark Gimmison owns the franchise for Cincinnati and Dayton, Ohio. He maintains a staff of three, I believe, in Cincinnati. The person who cleaned my tile was Larry. He was punctual, professional and did excellent quality work. I was told by the estimator (Mark) that they might not be able to remove the stains from the grouting, which is old (1961). But when Larry arrived he worked diligently for three hours and the tile and grout now look new again. I am very satisfied. He first covered the area in a mild acid solution, then steamed the grout with a powerful hand steamer to remove the dirt, then added a neutralizer, then sealed the area and dried it with a fan. It took less than an hour to dry. I'm so glad I decided to go with this service.
Description of Work: My bathroom floors and showers have one inch tiles grouted in a mosiac design in the floor. The grout was stained and dirty looking. This company cleaned and then sealed the tile and grout in three small bathrooms.

They came first and provided a detailed,itemized estimate. My final costs were slightly higher only because they found additional damage once they started the work -- however, they did not perform the additional work until getting my permission. A two-person crew worked on my project over about 3 days, with one gentleman always present. They were on-time, always professional, and they did beautiful work, even while working in unbearably hot temeratures. They identified a bigger issue with my porch, but did not pressure me to contract them for more work and proposed a shorter-term solution that would stay closer to the original estimate. The porch looks great, and I will definitely use them once I am ready to take on the bigger project.
Description of Work: I hired the Grout Medic to clean, repair and seal an outdoor tiled porch, as well as to re-grout some damaged tiles in an interior bathroom.

Great experience! Mark was responsive in calling me back, gave me a rough verbal estimate over the phone which was helpful as I didn't know what pricing ballpark this project would be in. Mark then came to the house to give an official estimate which was a fair price, and included additional services than other companies. Larry actually performed the work and he exceeded my expectations! In addition to removing the old grout and replacing it in our shower, he took the time to show me what he was doing and what we should do to help maintain the shower in good condition. He also cleaned our shower doors for us which had quite a buildup from hard water, a very appreciated gesture!
Description of Work: The old grout in our master bath shower was replaced with new grout. Also re-caulked the shower and several places around the bathroom and kitchen where there were gaps between the tile floor and the wall.
