Frequently Asked Questions

Other FAQs :

• Q: What can I expect in terms of the appearance of my floors after the cleaning and sealing process?
• A: If your grout (and stone, if applicable) have not been sealed previously, it is possible that certain stains, especially in high traffic areas, may be permanent. However, if your grout (and stone, if applicable) have been sealed previously, the cleaning process should have prevented the penetration of dirt and other contaminants. As a result, you can expect excellent results from the cleaning, leaving your floors looking refreshed and rejuvenated.
• Q: What steps or preparations are typically recommended before having a floor sealed?
• A: To prepare for your floor sealing appointment, it is important to take necessary precautions. One crucial step is clearing the floor area by removing all furniture and items. This ensures a clean and unobstructed space for the professionals to efficiently carry out the sealing process. By ensuring that the floor is free from any objects, you can help facilitate a smooth and effective floor sealing experience. This preparation allows the technicians to access all areas of the floor and ensures optimal results in the sealing process.
• Q: What is the recommended frequency for re-sealing a stone surface?
• A: The recommended frequency for re-sealing a stone surface is typically every 5 to 10 years, depending on the quality and type of sealer used. Some premium sealers can last even longer, up to 15 years or even a lifetime. Special stone seal removers are available for resealing natural stone floors. With proper care and maintenance, a natural stone floor can maintain its natural finish for a lifetime. It is crucial to use the appropriate products specifically designed for your type of natural stone floor to ensure its longevity and appearance. Additionally, it is important to seal other stone features such as stairs, tables, pillars, and fireplaces to protect them from staining and damage. Fireplaces, in particular, can be susceptible to staining from carbon deposits and UV damage, making sealing essential for their preservation.
• Q: Can sealing my stone surface guarantee that it will remain free from stains?
• A: Sealing your stone surface offers the advantage of providing additional time to clean up spills before they have a chance to stain. However, it is important to note that sealing does not guarantee complete stain resistance. Prompt and thorough cleaning of spills and dirt is still necessary to prevent staining on the stone surface.
• Q: What are the benefits of hiring a professional to seal my stone?
• A: Hiring a professional to seal your stone brings several advantages. Firstly, professionals have the expertise to select the appropriate sealer based on the type of stone and its specific needs. They ensure that the stone is thoroughly cleaned before sealing, removing any dirt or blemishes that could be trapped beneath the sealer. This ensures a clean and flawless surface for optimal sealing results. Professionals are knowledgeable about industry standards and best practices, ensuring that the sealing process is done correctly and effectively. By relying on a professional, you can have peace of mind knowing that your stone will be sealed properly, enhancing its appearance and providing long-lasting protection.
