Frequently Asked Questions

Other FAQs :

• Q: What are the reasons for cleaning your stone surface?
• A: Cleaning your stone surface is essential because natural stone products tend to harbor dirt, residues, dust, and grime within their pores. It is crucial to thoroughly clean these pores before applying any sealant to the surface. If dirt and other contaminants are trapped beneath the stone sealer, they can eventually lead to the formation of a milky white residue between the top of the stone and the underside of the sealer. To rectify this issue, it becomes necessary to remove the stone sealer and perform a thorough cleaning process.
• Q: What is the recommended frequency for re-sealing a stone surface?
• A: The recommended frequency for re-sealing a stone surface is typically every 5 to 10 years, depending on the quality and type of sealer used. Some premium sealers can last even longer, up to 15 years or even a lifetime. Special stone seal removers are available for resealing natural stone floors. With proper care and maintenance, a natural stone floor can maintain its natural finish for a lifetime. It is crucial to use the appropriate products specifically designed for your type of natural stone floor to ensure its longevity and appearance. Additionally, it is important to seal other stone features such as stairs, tables, pillars, and fireplaces to protect them from staining and damage. Fireplaces, in particular, can be susceptible to staining from carbon deposits and UV damage, making sealing essential for their preservation.

• Q: Why did the tile supplier recommend sealing my porcelain tiles while the tiler advised against it?
• A: Porcelain tiles can be a source of confusion in the market, and many resources have been dedicated to clarifying the various aspects involved. It is important to note that the more inquiries you make, the more perplexed you may become. As a general guideline, textured and honed porcelain tiles typically do not require sealing, while polished porcelain tiles often benefit from it. This may seem counterintuitive, as the polishing process creates tiny pores that are prone to staining. Applying a high-quality penetrating sealer can effectively fill these pores and provide reliable stain protection. On the other hand, textured porcelain tiles usually require thorough cleaning due to their rough surface. If you find yourself uncertain, conducting a stain test can be helpful. Obtain a sample stone or an off-cut and attempt to stain it using substances commonly found in that particular area. If staining occurs, it indicates a potential benefit to having the porcelain tiles sealed.
