Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What does the process of concrete strip and seal involve?
- A: Concrete strip and seal is a process that involves removing the existing coating or sealant from the concrete floor and then resealing it. Over time, concrete floors can become dull and lose their lustrous appearance, giving them an aged and unattractive look. By performing a strip and seal procedure, the old coating is stripped off, and a new sealant is applied, bringing back the beautiful and glossy appearance of the polished concrete. This process not only restores the aesthetic appeal of the floor but also eliminates the need for costly floor replacement. By opting for concrete strip and seal, you can revitalize your concrete floors and give them a fresh, new look without the expense of installing new flooring.

- Q: What are the potential consequences of not sealing concrete surfaces?
- A: Concrete is a porous material that readily absorbs liquids. In freeze-thaw climates, the expansion of frozen liquids can destroy the surface of unsealed concrete. Oil, salt, fertiliser, and other household chemicals can discolour and damage unsealed concrete.
- Q: Can Tile Cleaners remove efflorescence buildup from concrete surfaces?
- A: Certainly! Tile Cleaners has the expertise to remove efflorescence from concrete surfaces. Efflorescence, which is the buildup of salts, can be effectively treated using specialized cleaning techniques and efflorescence removers. It is crucial to address the underlying cause of efflorescence, which is often a leak behind the concrete or damaged grout lines. While efflorescence can be removed, it is essential to resolve the root cause to prevent its recurrence. By engaging professional services, you can have the efflorescence removed and ensure that steps are taken to rectify the underlying issue, helping to restore the appearance of your concrete surfaces.
- Q: Does sealing concrete surfaces help prevent efflorescence?
- A: Efflorescence can occur on concrete and other porous surfaces when water in the concrete brings salts to the surface as it evaporates. This process leaves behind a whitish coating that can mar the finish of the concrete. Sealing the concrete with a high-quality, water-resistant sealer can help mitigate efflorescence to some extent. However, it is important to address the underlying issue causing the water penetration, such as a water pipe leak or damaged grout, in order to fully prevent efflorescence. By sealing the concrete and resolving any sources of water infiltration, you can minimize the occurrence of efflorescence and help maintain the aesthetic integrity of your concrete surfaces.
