Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What measures can I take to maintain the fresh appearance of my terracotta tiles?
- A: To maintain the pristine appearance of your terracotta tiles and grout, Tile Cleaning suggest cleaning them on a weekly basis using a gentle detergent. This will effectively eliminate any accumulated dirt or grime from the terracotta surface. It is important to avoid using harsh detergents containing strong acids or alkalis, as they may negatively impact the sealer. Instead, we highly recommend opting for mild detergents and pH neutral substances for optimal results.
- Q: What is the purpose of stripping terracotta floors?
- A: The purpose of stripping terracotta floors is to remove the old sealer and any built-up residue or contaminants from the surface. This process is necessary to ensure that the terracotta floors are thoroughly cleaned and prepared for the application of a new sealer. By stripping the old sealer, any stains, dirt, or grime that may have accumulated over time can be effectively removed, leaving the terracotta floors in their cleanest and most pristine condition. Once the stripping process is complete, the floors can be thoroughly cleaned and a new sealer can be applied, resulting in fresh and revitalized terracotta floors.
- Q: What steps are involved in the process of resealing terracotta floors?
- A: When we arrive to reseal your terracotta floors, our professional team will guide you through the step-by-step process. First, any previous sealer that was applied will be stripped off. Next, the terracotta will be meticulously cleaned and neutralized to ensure it is free from dust, residue, and any other substances that could affect the new sealer. Once the surface is prepared, a fresh coat of sealer will be applied to the dry terracotta floor and allowed to set. The result will be a revitalized and protected terracotta floor that not only looks new but is also easier to maintain.
- Q: What are the consequences of not sealing terracotta floors?
- A: If terracotta floors are not sealed, they can be easily damaged. Spills containing oils or harsh substances can penetrate the porous surface of the terracotta tiles, leading to permanent staining that cannot be removed through regular cleaning methods. To prevent this, it is highly recommended to seal your terracotta tiles. Sealing helps maintain the fresh appearance of the tiles, provides protection against permanent staining, and prevents future accidental damage. By sealing your terracotta floors, you can ensure they retain their optimal condition for a longer period and make maintenance easier and more convenient.
- Q: What is the suggested approach for measuring the dimensions of a terracotta area?
- A: When measuring a terracotta area, it is recommended to measure each section individually. The simplest approach is to multiply the width of the area by its length. For example, if a room has dimensions of 3 meters in length and 2 meters in width, the total area can be determined by multiplying 3 by 2, resulting in 6 square meters.
