Cathy, You said the grout doctor made a visit.  Just exactly what did he do to change the color?  It was MUCH better as was everything else.  I think it is so much fun to see a transformation like that one.

AMAZING before and afters, Cathy.  These rooms don't even look like they came from the same house! (and what was with all the jars in the kitchen?  Were they gearing up to make homemade jam? - yummmmm)

HI Vicki!  I can find out the name of the product for you and will send you an email.  My daughter purchased a home that had this done in one of the baths and they were a bit leary-but after 7 years it still looks great and they are a very busy household with 3 boys!!

HI Connie-the homeowners have a variety of fruit trees and a grape arbor that is in full bloom right now.

Oh, Cathy, I would really appreciate it if you could find out what the product i the bathroom is.  The differnece is really significant and I am always leary of such things as I am sure you understand.

Thanks, Vicki

   Vicki-here's the magic he just did!

By changing the color of the grout-the kitchen looks so much newer and cleaner!!  This treatment was $300.

Cathy ~ Looks great! You really made the rooms open up and come alive. Did you have the bathroom tiles and bathtub painted? Thanks for sharing.

The befores and afters are almost theraputic....the clutter and mess is just too much to take in.  Great idea on the grout.  I've had the tiles resurfaced, and yes it makes a huge difference.

Hi Kathy,

  Great work and thanks for the info on the Grout Doctor. I have a pink tub that's just like that in my rental house and I'm going to check it out.

Great work Kathy.  it's so nice to see such an improvement in a home.  I sure it won't be long before it is sold.

Wow, there is no questioning the difference!  But the pink tile, I'm still not tracking there.  I understand changing the grout, but did he change the color of the tile without changing the tile?  If that's possible I really need to know!
