Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: Can sealing effectively prevent efflorescence?
- A: Efflorescence is a phenomenon where salts migrate to the surface of porous materials during water evaporation, resulting in a whitish coating and potential damage to the surface finish. To effectively prevent efflorescence, it is crucial to apply a high-quality water-resistant sealer from a reputable range. However, it is important to note that efflorescence can also be influenced by factors such as water penetration. Therefore, it is essential to address any underlying causes of water penetration, such as repairing leaks or damaged grout, to effectively prevent efflorescence. By combining proper sealing with resolving the water source, proactive measures can be taken to minimize the occurrence of efflorescence and maintain the integrity of the surface.
- Q: What steps or preparations are typically recommended before having a floor sealed?
- A: To prepare for your floor sealing appointment, it is important to take necessary precautions. One crucial step is clearing the floor area by removing all furniture and items. This ensures a clean and unobstructed space for the professionals to efficiently carry out the sealing process. By ensuring that the floor is free from any objects, you can help facilitate a smooth and effective floor sealing experience. This preparation allows the technicians to access all areas of the floor and ensures optimal results in the sealing process.
- Q: Can sealing my pavers or stone prevent the growth of algae?
- A: Sealing pavers or stone alters their properties but does not have the ability to modify the surrounding environment. If you have a damp and shaded backyard, sealing the stone or pavers will not change those conditions. However, sealing reduces the porosity of the surface, which can inhibit the growth of algae and make cleaning easier. While it is worth considering sealing in most cases, it is important to understand that sealing alone may not completely eliminate algae growth if the environmental conditions are conducive to its development. Additional measures, such as regular cleaning and maintenance, may be necessary to effectively manage algae growth in such situations.
- Q: What are the reasons for sealing tiles?
- A: Sealing tiles and grout provides a range of benefits in terms of maintenance and preserving their appearance. Surfaces can be prone to deterioration and degradation due to factors like foot traffic, UV rays, moisture, chemicals, and impurities such as oil, grease, acids, and salt. These issues can lead to problems like cracking, pitting, scaling, spalling, delamination, dusting, discolouration, efflorescence, and salt damage. By using quality sealers like Australia's Deepshield™ deep impregnating range, you can prevent unsightly stains, discolouration, and maintain the overall look of your tiled floors for a longer period. Sealing acts as a protective barrier, enhancing the durability and longevity of the tiles and grout.
