Frequently Asked Questions

Other FAQs :

• Q: What can I expect in terms of mess during the stripping process of my granite tiles? Is there a risk of damaging my walls or skirting boards?
• A: When it comes to the stripping process of your granite tiles, Tile Cleaning prioritizes the use of high-quality non-solvent-based stripping and sealing products. These products are specifically designed to minimize mess and ensure the protection of your granite tiles and other surfaces in your home. With our current non-solvent-based strippers and techniques, there is no significant risk of damaging your walls or skirting boards. In rare cases, where solvent-based strippers may be required, we take extensive safety precautions and ensure that you are properly informed. If such circumstances arise, you may be required to vacate the premises for up to 48 hours to ensure your safety. Rest assured, we prioritize cleanliness and take every measure to safeguard your walls, skirting boards, and other areas of your home throughout the stripping process.
• Q: What is a tile strip and seal?
• A: Tile stripping and sealing is simply the process of stripping the coating off the marble floor before resealing it. Surfaces can begin to appear dull and lifeless over time, making them look older and really bringing down the feel of any area. By stripping and resealing, you can bring back the beautiful, lustrous appearance of your surfaces and eliminate the cost of laying new flooring.
• Q: When is the best time to seal my floors and how do I know that mine need sealing now?
• A: The best time to have your tiles sealed is immediately after installation to prevent any accidental staining or damage. You will know that your floor needs sealing once you start noticing patchy sealed areas of the floor and/or your tiles are staining easier.
• 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: How frequently should floors be sealed?
• A: The recommended frequency for sealing floors can vary depending on factors such as the type of sealer used and the amount of foot traffic on the tiles. Deep impregnating water-based sealers, like Deepshield™ Gold, are known to provide long-lasting protection for up to 15 years. However, topical sealers typically require reapplication every 3 years, although this can be influenced by factors such as heavy foot traffic or harsh weather conditions. Regular assessment of the floor's condition is important, looking for signs like patchy areas or increased susceptibility to staining, as these may indicate the need for resealing. For personalized guidance and more detailed information, it is recommended to consult professionals or providers such as Australia's Deepshield™ for assistance and inquiries.
