Frequently Asked Questions

Other FAQs :

• Q: Do you offer color enhancing services for travertine? If yes, could you provide an explanation of the process involved in color enhancement?
• A: Absolutely, we provide color enhancing services specifically designed for travertine. The color enhancement process involves the application of a specialized compound that enriches and intensifies the natural appearance of the travertine. By applying the color enhancer, the tiles' tones and hues are deepened, bringing out the inherent beauty of the travertine material. This treatment imparts a subtle wet or low sheen finish, enhancing the overall visual appeal of your travertine surfaces. Our color enhancing services are aimed at highlighting the unique characteristics and enhancing the aesthetics of your travertine.
• Q: What is the proper method for measuring the area of marble that needs to be sealed?
• A: To accurately measure the area of marble that requires sealing, it is best to measure each individual area separately. This can be done by multiplying the width of the area by its length. For instance, if you have a room that is 3 meters long and 2 meters wide, the total area would be calculated as 3 meters multiplied by 2 meters, resulting in 6 square meters (6m²). This method ensures precise measurements for determining the amount of marble that needs to be sealed.
• Q: Which varieties of marble tiles does Tile Cleaners seal?
• A: Tile Cleaners is experienced in sealing various types of marble tiles, including indoor and outdoor areas. This includes polished marble, honed marble, marble with a matte finish, porous marble, pre-sealed marble, as well as marble tiles found in bathrooms on floors and walls. Additionally, Tile Cleaners can also seal external tiles, natural stone pavers, and tile pavers. Regardless of the specific type of marble tiles you have, Tile Cleaners can provide suitable solutions and expertise to meet your needs.
• Q: Does Tile Cleaning offer assistance with moving furniture when sealing the floor?
• A: Tile Cleaning provides assistance with moving furniture during the floor sealing process. Their team of dedicated technicians is available to help with the relocation of furniture items that can be reasonably managed by one person, such as those with wheels or lightweight furniture like tables and chairs. However, it is important to keep in mind that while Tile Cleaning takes precautions to protect your belongings, they cannot be held responsible for any damages that may occur during the furniture moving process. To ensure the safety of valuable or fragile items, it is recommended to either relocate them to a secure area or properly secure them before the technicians arrive. By taking these necessary precautions, you can help ensure the safety of your furniture and minimize the risk of potential damage while the floor sealing process is being carried out.
• Q: How can I determine if my marble floors require sealing?
• A: Tile Cleaning recommends conducting a simple "water test" to assess whether your marble floors necessitate sealing. This widely recognized test in the stone industry involves placing a few drops of water on the stone surface and allowing it to remain for approximately 10 to 30 minutes. Subsequently, wipe the water dry. If the marble did not darken during this process, it indicates that your marble is adequately sealed and does not require further sealing. However, if the water caused darkening of the marble, it signifies that the water was able to penetrate the stone, indicating the need for sealing.
