Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What are the indicators or signs that suggest my sandstone floors are in need of sealing?
- A: To determine if your sandstone floors require sealing, Tile Cleaning recommends conducting a simple "water test." This widely-used method in the stone industry can help assess the need for sealing. Start by placing a few drops of water on the stone surface and allowing it to sit for approximately 10 to 30 minutes. Afterwards, wipe the water dry. If your sandstone did not darken during this process, it indicates that your floors are adequately sealed and do not require additional sealing. However, if the water droplets caused darkening or were absorbed by the stone, it signifies that your sandstone is susceptible to water penetration, indicating the need for sealing.
- Q: What is the significance of sealing sandstone tiles?
- A: Sealing sandstone tiles is a crucial step in ensuring their long-term quality and preventing potential damage. Unlike polishes, sealers are specifically formulated to create a protective barrier that prevents liquids and dirt particles from penetrating the porous nature of the natural stone. It is highly recommended to have your sandstone tiles sealed, especially during the initial installation process, as this initial seal can provide effective protection for up to 15 years. By promptly contacting professionals to seal your sandstone floors after installation, you can safeguard them against accidental permanent damage, preserving their beauty and durability for years to come.

- Q: Can sealing my sandstone floors conceal scratches and etches on the surface?
- A: While Tile Cleaners®'s color enhancing sealer can potentially assist in concealing scratches on your sandstone floors, it's important to note that it cannot guarantee a complete restoration to their original condition. The Deepshield™ Penetrating Color Enhancing Sealer is designed to darken the sandstone tiles by up to 20% and may help camouflage etches, ultimately revitalizing the appearance of your sandstone floors. However, the extent to which scratches and etches can be hidden or diminished will depend on their severity and the overall condition of the tiles. For the best outcome, it is recommended to consult with professionals who can assess your specific situation and provide appropriate guidance.
- Q: What is the pricing structure for sealing sandstone tiles?
- A: Tile Cleaners® follow a pricing structure based on the size of each individual sandstone room. You can find a comprehensive price list on the Tile Cleaners® website for your reference. Prior to commencing the work, our team will measure each room separately and discuss the scope of the project with you. This includes confirming the specific tasks to be carried out as well as providing a clear breakdown of all associated costs. We believe in transparent communication to ensure that you are fully informed about the pricing details before we begin the sealing process.
