Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What type of sealer is applied to sandstone tiles, and does it alter the texture of the tiles?
- A: When it comes to sealing sandstone tiles, all our products at Tile Cleaners® are water-based. We typically avoid using solvent-based sealers, except in specific cases where it is the only suitable option. The application of our sealer will not impact the texture of your sandstone tiles in any manner. It is designed to preserve the natural texture and appearance of the tiles while providing essential protection against staining. Rest assured, our sealer will help maintain the desired lustrous and natural finish of your sandstone tiles.
- Q: What measures can be taken to maintain the new appearance of sealed sandstone tiles?
- A: To maintain the fresh appearance of your sealed sandstone tiles, Tile Cleaners® suggests regular cleaning on a weekly basis using a mild detergent. This will help remove any dirt or grime from the surface of the sandstone while ensuring that the sealer remains unaffected. It is crucial to avoid using strong detergents that have high acidity or alkalinity as they may compromise the integrity of the sealer. Instead, opt for mild detergents and pH-neutral substances for safe and effective cleaning. Furthermore, the best way to protect your sandstone tiles from staining and maintain their pristine condition is to seal them with one of our top-quality sealers. Sealing provides the optimal safeguard against potential stains and enhances the longevity of your sandstone tiles.
- Q: What is the estimated time required to reseal sandstone floors?
- A: The duration for resealing sandstone floors can vary depending on the size of the area being sealed. On average, most jobs take approximately 4 to 8 hours to complete. At Tile Cleaners®, we aim to provide efficient service, which is why we typically perform both the cleaning and resealing processes on the same day. This approach eliminates the need for multiple appointments, ensuring a hassle-free experience for our customers.
- 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 are the different types of sealers available for sandstone tiles?
- A: There are various types of sealers available for sandstone tiles at Tile Cleaning. We offer a range of high-quality sealers that cater to different requirements. Whether you prefer an Impregnating Sealer or a Topical Sealer for your sandstone tiles, we have options to suit your needs. Our goal is to provide you with top-quality sealers that effectively protect and enhance the beauty of your sandstone tiles.
