Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What are the potential consequences of not sealing concrete floors?
- A: Not sealing concrete floors can lead to various potential consequences. Without proper sealing, the surface of the concrete is susceptible to damage. Spills of oily or harsh substances can penetrate the pores of the concrete, resulting in permanent stains that cannot be removed through regular domestic cleaning methods. By not sealing your concrete surfaces, you risk permanent staining and difficulty in maintaining the fresh look and feel of the floors. Sealing the concrete provides a protective barrier, preventing such staining and accidental damage in the future. It helps to preserve the appearance of the surfaces, keeping them in their best condition for a longer period and making maintenance easier and more convenient.
- Q: What are the reasons for considering the sealing of concrete surfaces?
- A: Sealing concrete surfaces is essential due to various factors that can cause deterioration and a decline in their appearance. Concrete is exposed to traffic, UV rays, moisture, rain, chemicals, and impurities like oil, gas, grease, acids, and salt, which can lead to common issues such as cracking, pitting, scaling, spalling, delamination, dusting, discoloration, efflorescence, and salt damage. By applying a concrete sealer, you can protect the surface and enjoy numerous maintenance benefits. High-quality sealers like Australia's Deepshield™ deep impregnating sealers provide effective protection and help maintain the integrity and aesthetics of the concrete surfaces.
- Q: What are the reasons for considering the stripping of concrete floors?
- A: Stripping concrete floors is essential if you desire the cleanest and most visually appealing results. By entrusting the task to professionals, they can effectively remove as much of the old sealer as possible. This initial step paves the way for a thorough cleaning process before applying a new sealer. The end result is a fresh and immaculate polished concrete floor that showcases its natural beauty to the fullest extent. With professional stripping, cleaning, and sealing, your concrete floors can achieve their optimal appearance and maintain their pristine condition.

- Q: What is the estimated drying time for concrete sealer?
- A: Concrete sealers typically have a relatively quick drying time, and they are often touch-dry within approximately 4 hours. This applies to both penetrating sealers and topical sealers. Penetrating sealers usually reach full curing within 24 hours, while topical sealers may take up to 48 hours to fully dry. It is important to allow sufficient time for the sealer to dry and cure properly before subjecting the concrete surface to heavy use or exposure to water. By following the recommended drying times, you can ensure the effectiveness and longevity of the concrete sealer.
