Frequently Asked Questions
Other FAQs :
- Q: What steps can I take to maintain the fresh appearance of my granite tiles after sealing them?
- A: To maintain the fresh appearance of your sealed granite tiles, Tile Cleaners® suggests the following steps. Regularly clean the tiles and grout on a weekly basis using a mild detergent to remove dirt and grime. It is important to avoid using strong detergents with high acidity or alkalinity, as they may potentially affect the sealer. Instead, opt for mild detergents and pH-neutral substances for cleaning. Our top recommendation for protecting your granite tiles is to seal them with one of our highest quality sealers. Sealing provides the best possible protection against staining and helps maintain the pristine condition of your granite tiles.
- Q: What are the potential consequences of not sealing granite floors?
- A: If granite floors are left unsealed, they can be susceptible to various issues. Due to their porous nature, spills of oily or harsh substances can seep into the granite tiles and penetrate their pores, resulting in permanent staining that cannot be effectively removed through regular domestic cleaning methods. To preserve the natural look and feel of your granite tiles and safeguard them against permanent staining, we strongly recommend sealing them. Sealing provides a protective barrier that prevents spills from penetrating the surface, keeping your granite floors looking their best for an extended period. Furthermore, sealed granite floors are easier to maintain, offering convenience in their upkeep and ensuring their long-term durability.
- Q: What is the significance of sealing granite tiles?
- A: Sealing granite tiles is crucial as it serves the purpose of preventing liquids and dirt particles from penetrating the surface. Unlike polishes, sealers are specifically formulated to create a barrier that safeguards the granite surfaces. It is recommended to seal porous granite tiles after installation, and this initial seal can provide protection for up to 15 years, contingent upon the quality of the sealer used and the level of regular wear and exposure. To ensure the preservation of your granite tiles and prevent any accidental damage, it is advisable to contact us promptly after installation so that we can provide the necessary protection.
- Q: What is the estimated time frame required to reseal granite floors?
- A: The duration to reseal granite floors can vary based on the size of the area being sealed. In most cases, the process typically takes around 4 to 8 hours to complete. Our team is committed to completing both the cleaning and resealing tasks on the same day, eliminating the need for multiple appointments and ensuring convenience for our clients.
- Q: What steps should I take to prepare for the cleaning of my granite surfaces?
- A: To prepare for the cleaning of your granite surfaces, it is recommended to move all furniture and items off the floor. This allows the cleaning team to have unobstructed access to the granite surfaces and ensures that the area is ready for their arrival. By clearing the floor of furniture and items, you can facilitate a smooth and efficient cleaning process for your granite surfaces.
