Frequently Asked Questions
- A: To maintain the fresh appearance of your terrazzo tiles, Tile Cleaning recommends following a regular cleaning routine. It is advised to clean the tiles and grout on a weekly basis using a damp microfiber cloth and a mild detergent. This helps to effectively remove any dirt or grime from the tiled surface. It is important to avoid using strong detergents that contain strong acids or alkalis, as they can potentially affect the sealer. Instead, it is strongly recommended to use mild detergents and pH neutral substances. Additionally, the best advice for protecting your terrazzo tiles is to seal them with one of the highest quality sealers available. Sealing provides the best protection against staining and helps maintain the pristine condition of your terrazzo tiles.

- Q: Can Tile Cleaning remove stains from my terrazzo floor?
- A: If you have a new stain on your terrazzo floor that hasn't set in deeply, there is a good chance that Tile Cleaning can remove it. However, it is important to note that while we strive to clean the stain to the best possible condition, we cannot guarantee complete removal. The outcome also depends on whether the terrazzo tiles have been previously sealed or not. In some cases, stains may penetrate the natural stone and settle below the surface, making them more challenging to clean. To prevent future staining and ensure the long-term protection of your terrazzo floors, we recommend having Tile Cleaning perform a comprehensive process of stripping, cleaning, and sealing your terrazzo floor. By taking this approach, you can minimize the likelihood of future staining and preserve the pristine appearance of your terrazzo floors.
- Q: What is the recommended method for measuring the size of a terrazzo area?
- A: To measure the size of a terrazzo area, it is recommended to measure each area separately. The measurement can be calculated by multiplying the width of the area by its length. For example, if a room measures 3 meters in length and 2 meters in width, the total area would be calculated as 3 multiplied by 2, resulting in a total of 6 square meters. By measuring each terrazzo area separately and using the width by length calculation, you can accurately determine the total size of the area.
- Q: What does the process of terrazzo strip and seal entail?
- A: Terrazzo strip and seal is a procedure that involves removing the existing coating or sealant from a terrazzo tile floor before applying a new sealer. Over time, terrazzo flooring can become dull and lose its luster, diminishing the overall aesthetics of a home or space. By stripping the old sealant and resealing the terrazzo, you can restore its beautiful and glossy appearance, effectively revitalizing the floor. This process not only enhances the visual appeal but also eliminates the need for costly floor replacement.
- Q: What is the recommended frequency for sealing terrazzo floors?
- A: The recommended frequency for sealing terrazzo floors varies depending on factors such as the type of sealer used and the amount of foot traffic the tiles are exposed to. Deepshield® is a range of deep impregnating water-based sealers available in Australia, with Deepshield Gold® offering long-term benefits and a lifespan of up to 15 years. On the other hand, topical sealers typically have a shorter lifespan of around 3 years. However, the actual duration may be influenced by factors such as high foot traffic or severe weather conditions (in the case of outdoor tiles), which may result in a shorter lifespan. Additionally, the condition of the tiles is a determining factor; if they start showing patchy areas and are easily staining, it is an indication that resealing is needed.
