Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What steps should I take to properly prepare my slate floors prior to the sealing process?
- A: To properly prepare your slate floors before the sealing process, it is important to remove all furniture and items from the surface. By clearing the slate floors of any furniture or objects, you ensure that the area is ready and accessible for the sealing professionals when they arrive.
- Q: What can I anticipate during the process of resealing my slate floors?
- A: What should you expect during the process of resealing your slate floors? Our professional team will provide a detailed overview of each step involved. Firstly, if there is any existing sealer, it will be stripped off. Next, the slate will undergo a comprehensive cleaning and neutralization process to ensure the removal of dust, residues, and any other substances that may interfere with the new sealer's effectiveness. Once the slate floor is dry, a fresh layer of sealer will be applied and allowed to set. This resealing process not only revitalizes the appearance of your slate floors, making them look new again, but also provides protection. As a result, your slate floors will be easier to maintain in the long run.
- 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.
- Q: What steps can I take to maintain the new appearance of my sealed slate tiles?
- A: To maintain the new and pristine appearance of your sealed slate tiles, it is advisable to follow a few important steps. Tile Cleaners® suggests cleaning the tiles and grout on a weekly basis using a mild detergent. This gentle cleaning solution will effectively remove any accumulated dirt or grime from the slate surface. It is crucial to avoid using strong detergents that are either highly acidic or alkaline, as they can potentially affect the sealer. Instead, opt for mild detergents and pH-neutral substances, as they are highly recommended for maintaining the integrity of the sealer. Furthermore, the best course of action to protect your slate tiles is to seal them with one of our highest quality sealers. This sealing process provides optimal protection against staining and enhances the longevity of your slate tiles' pristine appearance.
