- Q: Which process can I expect when you arrive to reseal my bluestone floors?
- A: Our professional team will go through the job processes with you step by step so you know exactly what you're getting. The process includes stripping any previous sealer if it was applied, the bluestone is then thoroughly cleaned and neutralised so that it is free of dust, residue and anything else that can affect the new sealer. A new sealer is applied to the dry bluestone floor and allowed to set. The newly sealed bluestone floor will not only look new again, it will be protected and result in your bluestone becoming easier to maintain.
- Q: How do I know when my bluestone floors are ready for cleaning, stripping and resealing?
- A: You will know it's time to have your bluestone floors stripped, cleaned and sealed once they begin to appear dull or "matte" even after you have given them an efficient regular clean. If you notice that your bluestone tiles are staining easily, it's a good indication that your previous sealer is wearing off and your bluestone floors will need to be resealed immediately to prevent permanent staining.
