Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What steps can I take to maintain the new appearance of my sealed slate tiles?
- A: To maintain the new and pristine appearance of your sealed slate tiles, it is advisable to follow a few important steps. Tile Cleaners® suggests cleaning the tiles and grout on a weekly basis using a mild detergent. This gentle cleaning solution will effectively remove any accumulated dirt or grime from the slate surface. It is crucial to avoid using strong detergents that are either highly acidic or alkaline, as they can potentially affect the sealer. Instead, opt for mild detergents and pH-neutral substances, as they are highly recommended for maintaining the integrity of the sealer. Furthermore, the best course of action to protect your slate tiles is to seal them with one of our highest quality sealers. This sealing process provides optimal protection against staining and enhances the longevity of your slate tiles' pristine appearance.
- Q: What can I anticipate during the process of resealing my slate floors?
- A: What should you expect during the process of resealing your slate floors? Our professional team will provide a detailed overview of each step involved. Firstly, if there is any existing sealer, it will be stripped off. Next, the slate will undergo a comprehensive cleaning and neutralization process to ensure the removal of dust, residues, and any other substances that may interfere with the new sealer's effectiveness. Once the slate floor is dry, a fresh layer of sealer will be applied and allowed to set. This resealing process not only revitalizes the appearance of your slate floors, making them look new again, but also provides protection. As a result, your slate floors will be easier to maintain in the long run.
- Q: Which sealer is considered the most suitable for sealing the slate around my pool?
- A: When it comes to sealing slate around swimming pools, our top recommendation is our high-quality Impregnating Penetrating Water Based Sealer. This particular sealer is designed to provide comprehensive protection to your slate, penetrating deep into the stone for maximum effectiveness. One notable advantage of this sealer is its ability to eliminate the slipperiness that can be associated with other sealers used on slate surfaces. By choosing our Impregnating Penetrating Water Based Sealer, you can ensure that your slate around the pool area is well-protected and maintains its desired level of traction.
- Q: What is the appropriate method for measuring the size of the slate area that requires sealing?
- A: To accurately measure the area of slate that requires sealing, we suggest measuring each slate area separately. The most straightforward method is to multiply the width by the length of each area. For instance, if a room measures 3 meters in length and 2 meters in width, the total area would be calculated as 3 X 2 = 6m². By measuring each slate area individually using this method, you can determine the precise measurement needed for the sealing service.
- Q: What steps should I take to properly prepare my slate floors prior to the sealing process?
- A: To properly prepare your slate floors before the sealing process, it is important to remove all furniture and items from the surface. By clearing the slate floors of any furniture or objects, you ensure that the area is ready and accessible for the sealing professionals when they arrive.
