Frequently Asked Questions
- A: Many types of flooring can damage fairly easily, any oily or harsh spills can damage the surface and penetrate the pores leaving a permanent stain, unreachable by domestic cleaning methods. We strongly recommend sealing your surfaces to maintain their fresh look and feel, to protect against permanent staining and to prevent any future accidental damage. Your surfaces will look their very best for longer and will be easier and more convenient to maintain.
Q: What happens if I do not seal my stone? - Sealing Natural Stone
Other FAQs :
- Q: Does sealing eliminate the need for maintenance on my stone surfaces?
- A: Sealing your stone surfaces does not make them maintenance-free. While sealing provides added protection against staining and makes cleaning easier, it does not eliminate the need for regular maintenance. Sealed stone surfaces are more resistant to stains and contaminants, allowing you more time to clean up spills before they can penetrate the stone. However, it's important to note that no sealer can make a porous surface completely stain-proof. Proper cleaning and maintenance practices are still necessary to keep your stone surfaces in good condition. Using the recommended stone cleaning products and following appropriate maintenance routines will help preserve the appearance and longevity of your sealed stone.
- Q: Can all types of stone be sealed?
- A: If your stone is natural stone (slate, marble, granite, travertine, sandstone etc.) then it will need to be sealed. Stone is naturally porous and will absorb spills and stain easily.
- Q: Can i seal the grout alone if my stone cant be sealed?
- A: Yes you can and it is recommended to seal your grout lines especially if they are a light colour, this will save you the likely cost of having to regrout your tiles only a few years after installation.
- Q: Why should I seal stone tiles & grout?
- A:
Most stone surfaces are subject to deterioration and degradation of appearance through traffic, UV rays, moisture, rain, chemicals, and other impurities such as oil, gas, grease, acids and salt. This can easily result in common problems such as cracking, pitting, scaling, spalling, delamination, dusting, discolouration, efflorescence, salt damage, etc. Sealing stone offers excellent maintenance benefits when quality products are used such as Australia's Deepshield™ deep impregnating range of sealers.
Sealing your tiles & grout can help:- Prevent unsightly stains
- Prevent discolouration
- Keep your tiled floors looking better for longer
- Q: Can sealing my stone surface guarantee that it will remain free from stains?
- A: Sealing your stone surface offers the advantage of providing additional time to clean up spills before they have a chance to stain. However, it is important to note that sealing does not guarantee complete stain resistance. Prompt and thorough cleaning of spills and dirt is still necessary to prevent staining on the stone surface.
