Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What can I anticipate in terms of the process when your team arrives to reseal my polished concrete floors? - Tile and Grout Cleaning | Cleaning Concrete Tiles

• A: When our professional team arrives to reseal your polished concrete floors, they will provide you with a detailed explanation of the entire process, ensuring complete transparency. The process begins with stripping any existing sealer that may have been applied previously. Next, the polished concrete is thoroughly cleaned and neutralized to eliminate any dust, residue, or contaminants that could interfere with the new sealer. Once the floor is dry, a new sealer is applied and allowed to set. This sealing process not only rejuvenates the appearance of the concrete, making it look new again, but also provides essential protection and makes maintenance easier. By following this comprehensive process, our team ensures that your polished concrete floors receive optimal treatment, resulting in a refreshed and well-protected surface.

Other FAQs :

• Q: What maintenance steps can I take to preserve the appearance of my concrete surfaces and keep them looking new?
• A: To maintain the fresh and new appearance of your concrete surfaces, Tile Cleaners® recommends regular cleaning using a mild detergent. This weekly cleaning routine helps remove dirt and grime from the concrete surface, keeping it looking clean and well-maintained. It is important to note that strong detergents with high acidity or alkalinity can potentially affect the sealer applied to the concrete. Therefore, it is strongly advised to use mild detergents and pH-neutral substances when cleaning the surfaces. By following these maintenance guidelines, you can effectively preserve the pristine condition of your concrete and ensure its long-lasting beauty.
• Q: What is the recommended frequency for sealing polished concrete floors?
• A: The recommended frequency for sealing polished concrete floors depends on factors such as the type of sealer used and the amount of foot traffic the floors are exposed to. Australia's Deepshield™ range of deep impregnating water-based sealers, for instance, offers long-term benefits, with Deepshield™ Gold providing protection for up to 15 years. On the other hand, topical sealers typically have a lifespan of around 3 years. However, it is important to note that high foot traffic or severe weather conditions, especially for outdoor concrete, can potentially shorten the lifespan of the sealer. Additionally, the condition of the surface plays a role in determining when resealing is necessary. If you notice patchy areas or the floors are staining easily, it may be a sign that resealing is needed. Feel free to contact us for further assistance and any inquiries you may have regarding sealing your polished concrete floors.
• Q: Does the process of concrete polishing create a lot of mess?
• A: During the concrete polishing process, our procedures prioritize minimizing dust production by utilizing water. While polishing can create a slurry, we employ high-quality equipment and our technicians have years of expertise in managing the extraction of this slurry. As a result, once the polishing is completed, your surfaces will be left in their optimal condition, ensuring they are in the best possible state.
• Q: What is the pricing structure for the stripping and sealing services provided by Tile Cleaners® for concrete surfaces?
• A: Tile Cleaning applies a pricing structure based on the square meterage of each separate room when providing stripping and sealing services for concrete surfaces. You can find a detailed price list on the Tile Cleaning website, allowing you to review and assess the costs associated with the desired services. Prior to commencing the work, the team will conduct individual room measurements, confirm the scope of work, and provide a comprehensive cost breakdown to ensure transparency and clarity. By following this approach, Tile Cleaning aims to provide a clear understanding of the pricing structure and deliver accurate cost estimates to their valued customers.
• Q: What is the estimated drying time for concrete sealer?
• A: Concrete sealers typically have a relatively quick drying time, and they are often touch-dry within approximately 4 hours. This applies to both penetrating sealers and topical sealers. Penetrating sealers usually reach full curing within 24 hours, while topical sealers may take up to 48 hours to fully dry. It is important to allow sufficient time for the sealer to dry and cure properly before subjecting the concrete surface to heavy use or exposure to water. By following the recommended drying times, you can ensure the effectiveness and longevity of the concrete sealer.
