It holds a 4.8-star rating across 315 Google reviews posted between 2016 and 2026. The company backs its work with a 10 years-year warranty. Open Mon–Fri, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, per its Google profile.

Summary

The Groutsmith is a tile and grout cleaning, sealing, and color-sealing service in Sarasota.

Most reviewers are thrilled.

Old floors and showers often look brand new afterward, backed by a 10-year sealing warranty, and the techs are prompt, respectful, and tidy.

But a notable cluster of one-star reviews raises issues: bleached or over-scrubbed tile, costly maintenance visits that amounted to mopping the floor, a requirement to buy proprietary cleaning products sold only at their office, and a condescending owner.

Keep in mind: this is a grout service, not a walk-in tub or accessible-bathing provider.
