Other FAQs :

• Q: What is the optimal timing for sealing granite floors, and how can I determine if my granite floors currently require sealing?
• A: The ideal moment to seal your granite floors is right after their installation, as this helps prevent any potential accidental staining or damage. If you observe patchy sealed areas on your granite tiles or notice that they are becoming more prone to staining, these are clear indications that your granite floors are in need of sealing. By addressing these signs promptly, you can ensure the long-term protection and beauty of your granite floors.
• Q: What are the indicators that suggest my granite floors require sealing?
• A: To determine if your granite floors require sealing, there are a few key signs to observe. If your granite floors start to appear dull or lose their shine, even after regular cleaning, it may indicate the need for stripping, cleaning, and resealing. Additionally, if you notice that your granite tiles are becoming easily stained, it suggests that the previous sealer has worn off, necessitating immediate resealing to prevent permanent staining. Monitoring these visual cues and taking prompt action can help maintain the quality and longevity of your granite floors.
• Q: What steps can I take to maintain the fresh appearance of my granite tiles after sealing them?
• A: To maintain the fresh appearance of your sealed granite tiles, Tile Cleaners® suggests the following steps. Regularly clean the tiles and grout on a weekly basis using a mild detergent to remove dirt and grime. It is important to avoid using strong detergents with high acidity or alkalinity, as they may potentially affect the sealer. Instead, opt for mild detergents and pH-neutral substances for cleaning. Our top recommendation for protecting your granite tiles is to seal them with one of our highest quality sealers. Sealing provides the best possible protection against staining and helps maintain the pristine condition of your granite tiles.
• Q: What is the significance of sealing granite tiles?
• A: Sealing granite tiles is crucial as it serves the purpose of preventing liquids and dirt particles from penetrating the surface. Unlike polishes, sealers are specifically formulated to create a barrier that safeguards the granite surfaces. It is recommended to seal porous granite tiles after installation, and this initial seal can provide protection for up to 15 years, contingent upon the quality of the sealer used and the level of regular wear and exposure. To ensure the preservation of your granite tiles and prevent any accidental damage, it is advisable to contact us promptly after installation so that we can provide the necessary protection.
• Q: What is the recommended method for measuring the size of a granite area?
• A: To accurately measure the size of a granite area, it is recommended to measure each area individually. The most straightforward method is to multiply the width of the area by its length. For instance, if a room measures 3 meters in length and 2 meters in width, the total area would be calculated as 3 multiplied by 2, resulting in a total of 6 square meters. By measuring each granite area separately and calculating the total square meters, you can ensure precise measurements for accurate pricing and planning purposes.
