Other FAQs :
- 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.
- Q: Does Tile Cleaning offer assistance with moving furniture when sealing the floor?
- A: Tile Cleaning provides assistance with moving furniture during the floor sealing process. Their team of dedicated technicians is available to help with the relocation of furniture items that can be reasonably managed by one person, such as those with wheels or lightweight furniture like tables and chairs. However, it is important to keep in mind that while Tile Cleaning takes precautions to protect your belongings, they cannot be held responsible for any damages that may occur during the furniture moving process. To ensure the safety of valuable or fragile items, it is recommended to either relocate them to a secure area or properly secure them before the technicians arrive. By taking these necessary precautions, you can help ensure the safety of your furniture and minimize the risk of potential damage while the floor sealing process is being carried out.
- Q: What is the expected drying time for terracotta tiles after the resealing process?
- A: After the resealing process, the drying time for terracotta tiles depends on the type of sealer used. Penetrating sealers typically become touch dry within 4 hours, while it takes approximately 24 hours for the sealer to fully cure. Once the sealer is fully cured, you can safely place furniture and other objects back onto the tiles and grout. It is important to avoid getting the surfaces wet for at least 24 hours to allow proper curing. In the case of topical sealers, they generally require around 48 hours to fully cure before normal activities can resume.
- Q: What is the pricing structure for sealing terracotta tiles?
- A: Tile Cleaning follow a pricing structure based on the square meter measurement of each separate room when sealing terracotta tiles. You can find a detailed price list on the Tile Cleaning website for your reference. Prior to commencing the work, our team will conduct individual measurements for each room, discuss the scope of the project, and provide you with a comprehensive cost breakdown, ensuring complete transparency.
- Q: What type of sealer is used and does it have an impact on the texture of terracotta tiles?
- A: Our sealing products primarily consist of water-based formulas. We avoid using solvent-based sealers except in specific situations where no alternative is available. It's important to note that the sealer we apply will not alter the texture of your terracotta tiles in any manner. Its purpose is to provide protection against staining and to preserve the desired lustrous finish you desire for your terracotta surfaces.
