Other FAQs :

• Q: Is it possible to remove a stain from my marble floor?
• A: If the stain on your marble floor is recent and has not deeply set in, there is a good chance that it can be removed. However, it is important to note that complete stain removal cannot be guaranteed. The commitment of Tile Cleaning is to clean the floor to the best possible condition. The success of stain removal also depends on whether the marble tiles have been previously sealed or not. Some stains may penetrate the natural stone and settle below the surface, making them more challenging to clean. To prevent future staining and maintain the appearance of your marble floors, Tile Cleaning recommends a comprehensive process that involves stripping, cleaning, and sealing the marble floor. This approach provides protection and reduces the susceptibility of your marble floors to staining.
• Q: What is acid etching, and what measures can I take to safeguard my marble against it?
• A: Acid etching refers to the process in which acidic substances can corrode or eat away at your marble tiles, causing damage. Protecting your marble against acid etching can be challenging as sealing alone may not provide complete defense. The most effective method to safeguard your marble tiles is to promptly seal them and clean any spills or acidic substances immediately. Since stone-based tiles, including marble, have high porosity, sealing is essential to provide protection against future acid attacks and liquid spillage. Taking these preventative measures will help preserve the integrity of your marble tiles.
• Q: Do you offer color enhancing services for travertine? If yes, could you provide an explanation of the process involved in color enhancement?
• A: Absolutely, we provide color enhancing services specifically designed for travertine. The color enhancement process involves the application of a specialized compound that enriches and intensifies the natural appearance of the travertine. By applying the color enhancer, the tiles' tones and hues are deepened, bringing out the inherent beauty of the travertine material. This treatment imparts a subtle wet or low sheen finish, enhancing the overall visual appeal of your travertine surfaces. Our color enhancing services are aimed at highlighting the unique characteristics and enhancing the aesthetics of your travertine.
• Q: How can I determine if my marble floors require sealing?
• A: Tile Cleaning recommends conducting a simple "water test" to assess whether your marble floors necessitate sealing. This widely recognized test in the stone industry involves placing a few drops of water on the stone surface and allowing it to remain for approximately 10 to 30 minutes. Subsequently, wipe the water dry. If the marble did not darken during this process, it indicates that your marble is adequately sealed and does not require further sealing. However, if the water caused darkening of the marble, it signifies that the water was able to penetrate the stone, indicating the need for sealing.
• Q: What does the term "sealer" refer to?
• A: When we talk about a "sealer," we are referring to a liquid or carrier that contains a resin. This substance is applied to porous surfaces, whether they are natural stone or man-made materials. The primary function of a sealer is to provide protection against staining caused by water and/or oil-based materials. By applying the sealer, you can prevent these substances from penetrating and staining the surface. Additionally, a sealer can enhance the overall cleaning results by making it easier to clean and maintain the surfaces effectively.
