Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What signs indicate that my Travertine floors are due for cleaning?
- A: When your Travertine floors appear dull and lack their usual shine, despite thorough domestic cleaning, it is a clear sign that professional cleaning is required. The dull and matte appearance indicates the accumulation of dirt and grime that cannot be effectively removed through regular cleaning methods. Another indication is when the Travertine tiles start staining easily, which suggests that the previous sealer has worn off, leaving the surface vulnerable to staining. In such cases, immediate resealing becomes essential to prevent further damage from staining. By addressing these signs promptly and seeking professional cleaning and resealing, you can restore the beauty and protect the longevity of your Travertine floors.
- Q: How would you define Travertine?
- A: Travertine is a type of limestone that falls between marble and limestone in terms of its development over thousands of years. It is formed by the rapid precipitation of calcium carbonate in mineral springs, hot springs, underground rivers, and other water sources. Travertine typically displays a fibrous or concentric appearance and comes in various colors such as white, tan, and cream. It can be found in formations like stalactites, stalagmites, and other speleothems in limestone caves or at the mouths of hot springs. Travertine is commonly used as a construction material in Italy and other regions. It is important to note that travertine tiles are often porous and susceptible to staining due to the presence of escape gases during its formation. Therefore, professionally sealing porous travertine tiles is crucial, especially when they are exposed to domestic dirt or residue.

- Q: Can Tile Cleaning remove stains from my Travertine floor?
- A: Tile Cleaning may be able to remove a stain from your Travertine floor if it is relatively new and hasn't deeply penetrated the stone. However, we cannot provide a guarantee of complete stain removal; our commitment is to clean the area to the best possible condition. The effectiveness of stain removal also depends on whether the Travertine tiles have been previously sealed or not. In some cases, stains may have penetrated the natural stone and settled beneath the surface, making them more challenging to clean. It is important to consider having us perform a comprehensive process of stripping, cleaning, and sealing your Travertine floor. This ensures that future stains are prevented from penetrating the surface and enhances the overall stain resistance of your Travertine floors.
- Q: What is the recommended method for measuring the size of a Travertine area?
- A: To measure the size of a Travertine area, it is recommended to measure each room individually. The measurement is calculated by multiplying the width of the room by its length. For instance, if a room is 3 meters long and 2 meters wide, the total area would be calculated as 3 multiplied by 2, resulting in a total of 6 square meters. By measuring each room separately, you can accurately determine the total size of the Travertine area.
