Frequently Asked Questions

Other FAQs :

• Q: What steps can I take to maintain the fresh appearance of my granite tiles after sealing them?
• A: To maintain the fresh appearance of your sealed granite tiles, Tile Cleaners® suggests the following steps. Regularly clean the tiles and grout on a weekly basis using a mild detergent to remove dirt and grime. It is important to avoid using strong detergents with high acidity or alkalinity, as they may potentially affect the sealer. Instead, opt for mild detergents and pH-neutral substances for cleaning. Our top recommendation for protecting your granite tiles is to seal them with one of our highest quality sealers. Sealing provides the best possible protection against staining and helps maintain the pristine condition of your granite tiles.
• Q: Does the application of sealer on granite floors make them slippery?
• A: When using Deepshield™ Impregnating Penetrating Sealer, the slipperiness of your granite tile surface remains unaffected. This is because the sealer penetrates the top layer, specifically the surface pores of the granite. However, it's worth noting that applying a Topical Sealer may potentially make your granite floors slippery when they are wet. To preserve both the appearance and slip resistance of your granite surfaces and prevent moisture from being trapped within the stone, it is advisable to seal them with a high-quality, invisible, and fully breathable impregnating sealer. This ensures the optimal protection and maintenance of your granite floors.
• Q: What type of sealer is used and does it have any impact on the texture of granite tiles?
• A: Our sealing products exclusively consist of water-based formulas, avoiding the use of solvent-based sealers unless absolutely necessary. Applying the sealer will not alter the texture of your granite tiles in any manner. Instead, its primary function is to provide protection against staining while preserving the desired lustrous finish that you seek for your granite surfaces.
• Q: What is the pricing structure for sealing granite tiles?
• A: When it comes to sealing granite tiles, Tile Cleaners® follow a pricing structure based on the square meter measurement of each separate room. You can find a detailed price list on the Tile Cleaners® website for your reference. Before commencing the work, our team will measure each room individually, discuss the scope of the project, and provide you with a clear confirmation of the work to be carried out as well as the associated costs. This ensures transparency and allows you to have a comprehensive understanding of the pricing for sealing your granite tiles.
• Q: What can I anticipate in terms of the process when you arrive to reseal my granite floors?
• A: When our professional team arrives to reseal your granite floors, they will provide a comprehensive explanation of the job processes, ensuring complete clarity about the procedures involved. The process begins with stripping any previous sealer that may have been applied. Next, the granite floor is meticulously cleaned and neutralized to remove any dust, residue, or other elements that could impact the effectiveness of the new sealer. Once the surface is dry, a fresh sealer is applied and allowed to set. The outcome of this process is a rejuvenated granite floor that not only looks new but is also protected, making it easier to maintain in the long run.
