Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: Is it possible to apply penetrating concrete sealers over existing topical sealers?
- A: No, it is not possible to apply penetrating concrete sealers over existing topical sealers. Topical sealers create a membrane or film on the surface of the concrete, forming a barrier that prevents the penetrating sealers from effectively absorbing into the concrete. Therefore, before applying a penetrating sealer, it is necessary to remove any existing topical sealer to ensure proper penetration and adhesion of the new sealer. This preparation step ensures that the penetrating sealer can effectively provide the desired protection and enhance the durability of the concrete surface.
- Q: What are the potential consequences of not sealing concrete surfaces?
- A: Concrete is a porous material that readily absorbs liquids. In freeze-thaw climates, the expansion of frozen liquids can destroy the surface of unsealed concrete. Oil, salt, fertiliser, and other household chemicals can discolour and damage unsealed concrete.
- 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 recommended method for measuring the size of a concrete area for the purpose of determining the square meterage?
- A: To accurately measure the size of a concreted area, we recommend measuring each area separately. The process is straightforward: multiply the width of the area by its length. For example, if you have a room that is 3 meters long and 2 meters wide, the total square meterage would be calculated as 3 meters multiplied by 2 meters, resulting in 6 square meters in total. By measuring each concreted area individually using this method, you can ensure accurate calculations of square meterage for pricing and other purposes.
- Q: What is the recommended method for cleaning polished concrete surfaces?
- A: To maintain the condition of your polished concrete, it is recommended to clean it using a pH-neutral cleaner. This type of cleaner is gentle and does not damage the polished surface. After applying the pH-neutral cleaner, rinse the area with clean water to remove any residue. In case of spills, it is advisable to promptly clean them up using clean water. Additionally, to eliminate dust and keep the surface clean, using a microfiber mop is recommended. This method of cleaning helps to preserve the polished appearance of the concrete while ensuring that it remains free from dirt and debris.
