Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the recommended method for measuring the size of a concrete area for the purpose of determining the square meterage? - Tile and Grout Sealing | Sealing Concrete Floors

• 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.

Other FAQs :

• Q: What is the optimal timing for sealing concrete, and how can I determine if my concrete surfaces require sealing at the present moment?
• A: The optimal time to seal your concrete is right after installation to provide immediate protection against staining and damage. As for determining if your concrete surfaces require sealing, there are a couple of indicators to look out for. Firstly, if you notice patchy areas on the floor where the sealant has worn off or is uneven, it is a clear sign that resealing is needed. Additionally, if your concrete is becoming more susceptible to staining and is no longer repelling liquids as effectively as before, it is a good indication that it is time to apply a fresh coat of sealer. By addressing these signs promptly, you can ensure that your concrete remains adequately protected and maintains its optimal appearance.
• Q: What are the indicators that suggest it is time to clean, strip, and reseal polished concrete surfaces?
• A: You will know it's time to have your concrete floors stripped, cleaned and sealed once they begin to appear dull or "matte" even after you have given them an efficient regular clean. If you notice that your concrete surfaces are staining easily, it's a good indication that your previous sealer is wearing off and your concrete floors will need to be resealed immediately to prevent permanent staining.
• Q: What are the potential consequences of not sealing concrete floors?
• A: Not sealing concrete floors can lead to various potential consequences. Without proper sealing, the surface of the concrete is susceptible to damage. Spills of oily or harsh substances can penetrate the pores of the concrete, resulting in permanent stains that cannot be removed through regular domestic cleaning methods. By not sealing your concrete surfaces, you risk permanent staining and difficulty in maintaining the fresh look and feel of the floors. Sealing the concrete provides a protective barrier, preventing such staining and accidental damage in the future. It helps to preserve the appearance of the surfaces, keeping them in their best condition for a longer period and making maintenance easier and more convenient.
• Q: What are the recommended preparations I should undertake before the concrete sealing process?
• A: To prepare for the concrete sealing process, it is recommended to remove all furniture and items from the floor area. By ensuring that the floor is clear and free of any obstacles, it allows the Tile Cleaning team to access the entire surface easily and carry out the sealing process efficiently. Removing furniture and items beforehand also helps to protect them from any potential damage during the sealing process. By following this simple preparation step, you can help ensure a smooth and effective concrete sealing experience.
• 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.
