I noticed that some of the tiles in my bathroom walls were loose and the grout was coming off. I am a very busy so kept on postponing calling someone to fix it. One day I got home and the loose tiles were lying broken on the floor. Can you imagine my frustration? I rang my brother in panic and he gave me Tile Cleaners' contact details. I rang them straight away. The guys told me I needed a tiler and professional regrouting work done so I thought it would take ages to fix my problem. However they organized the work very well. I had my tiles fixed on Friday night the same week and the entire bathroom regrouted on Saturday. Thank you some much for your quick help; it was such a relief.

I have several different freshly laid tiles in my new house. All pathways have stone tiles and there are marble tiles in the bathrooms and porcelain in the kitchen. I needed to get them sealed and was not sure if it was possible to seal them all. I contacted Tile Cleaners because my dad recommended them. He had a similar situation in his house and was very happy with the job Tile Cleaners had done. I was very worried about my tiles since they were brand new and very expensive. Tile Cleaners team were very patient with me, explaining how they were going to apply the sealer on different types of tiles, what sealer they would use, how long it would last for and advised me on how to take care of my tiles. I called Tile Cleaners a few times confirming details, asking for prices, making sure they could to the job during the weekend etc. The guys were amazingly patient and helpful. When I had gathered all the information I wanted, I was ready to go ahead. The work done by Tile Cleaners actually took less time than what it took me looking for information about it. Sorry for the pain I caused, and again thank you.

My mother's tiles were old and ugly, as she has been living in the same house her entire life without ever really taking care of her tiles. I called Tile Cleaners to get advice on what to do with them. They came to her house the next day to have a look at my mum's tiles. I am very satisfied with how patient and highly professional you were with my mother. I am sorry I couldn't be there when you arrived, and I am really impressed by how you managed to explain everything to my mom and help her out. Thank you for doing a great job.

Frequently Asked Questions

Other FAQs :

  • Q: How can I determine if my slate floors require sealing?
  • A: How can I determine if my slate floors need sealing? Tile Cleaners® suggests conducting a simple "water test" to assess the need for sealing. To perform the test, place a few drops of water on the slate surface and allow it to sit for approximately 10 to 30 minutes. Afterward, wipe the water dry. If the stone does not darken, it indicates that your slate is adequately sealed and does not require further sealing. However, if the water droplets cause the slate to darken, it signifies that the water was able to penetrate the stone, indicating the need for sealing to protect the surface.
    • Q: What is the usual lifespan of the sealer before it requires reapplication?
    • A: The lifespan of a sealer before reapplication is influenced by the type of sealer used. Topical sealers typically provide protection for approximately 3 years before requiring reapplication. In contrast, impregnating sealers are more durable and can last up to 15 years or even a lifetime when applied to vertical surfaces. However, areas with high foot traffic or frequent use may necessitate more frequent inspections and resealing to ensure ongoing protection. Conducting a water absorption test can help assess the porosity of the surface and aid in selecting a sealer with longer-lasting durability. It is advisable to refer to the guidelines provided by the manufacturer and consult professionals to determine the specific reapplication schedule suitable for your tiles and grout.
      • Q: What does acid etching involve, and what measures can I take to safeguard my slate against it?
      • A: Acid etching refers to the corrosive damage caused to slate tiles by acidic substances, which can easily eat away or corrode the surface. Protecting slate against acid attack can be challenging due to its difficulty in sealing against such damage. To safeguard your slate tiles from acid etching, it is essential to promptly seal them and clean up any spills immediately. Given the high porosity of stone-based tiles like slate, sealing becomes crucial to provide protection against future acid attacks and liquid spillage. By adopting these measures, you can effectively minimize the risk of acid etching and preserve the integrity and appearance of your slate tiles.
        • Q: Will the sealing process of my slate floors conceal scratches and etches?
        • A: When it comes to concealing scratches and etches on slate floors, the application of Tile Cleaners® color enhancing sealer can be beneficial. While we cannot guarantee that the scratches will completely disappear and return the slate to its original condition, our Deepshield™ Penetrating Color Enhancing Sealer can darken the slate tiles by up to 20%. This darkening effect can help camouflage the appearance of scratches and etches, ultimately restoring the natural and fresh look of your slate floors.
          • Q: What is the typical time frame for resealing slate floors?
          • A: The duration required to reseal your slate floors can vary depending on the size of the area being sealed. Typically, most jobs can be completed within 4 to 8 hours. Our aim is to efficiently carry out both the cleaning and resealing processes on the same day, whenever feasible. This approach ensures that you won't have to deal with multiple appointments, streamlining the overall experience for your convenience.
