Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the recommended method for cleaning polished concrete surfaces? - Tile and Grout Sealing | Sealing Concrete Floors

• 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.

• Q: Can Tile Cleaners remove efflorescence buildup from concrete surfaces?
• A: Certainly! Tile Cleaners has the expertise to remove efflorescence from concrete surfaces. Efflorescence, which is the buildup of salts, can be effectively treated using specialized cleaning techniques and efflorescence removers. It is crucial to address the underlying cause of efflorescence, which is often a leak behind the concrete or damaged grout lines. While efflorescence can be removed, it is essential to resolve the root cause to prevent its recurrence. By engaging professional services, you can have the efflorescence removed and ensure that steps are taken to rectify the underlying issue, helping to restore the appearance of your concrete surfaces.
• Q: Does Tile Cleaning offer assistance with moving furniture when sealing the floor?
• A: Tile Cleaning provides assistance with moving furniture during the floor sealing process. Their team of dedicated technicians is available to help with the relocation of furniture items that can be reasonably managed by one person, such as those with wheels or lightweight furniture like tables and chairs. However, it is important to keep in mind that while Tile Cleaning takes precautions to protect your belongings, they cannot be held responsible for any damages that may occur during the furniture moving process. To ensure the safety of valuable or fragile items, it is recommended to either relocate them to a secure area or properly secure them before the technicians arrive. By taking these necessary precautions, you can help ensure the safety of your furniture and minimize the risk of potential damage while the floor sealing process is being carried out.
• Q: What can I anticipate in terms of the process when your team arrives to reseal my polished concrete floors?
• 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.
• 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.
