Frequently Asked Questions

Other FAQs :

• Q: What is the estimated drying time for sandstone tiles after they have been sealed?
• A: After the sandstone tiles have been sealed, they typically take around 4 hours to become touch dry. However, it is important to note that the sealer requires approximately 24 hours to fully cure. During this curing period, it is recommended to avoid placing any heavy objects, such as furniture, on the tiles or grout. To ensure the best results and longevity of the seal, it is advised to wait at least 24 hours before placing any items back onto the sealed sandstone tiles.
• Q: Does the color enhancer used on sandstone floors have any impact on the texture of the floors?
• A: When it comes to the color enhancer used by Tile Cleaners®, rest assured that it will not alter the texture of your sandstone floors. The purpose of the color enhancer is to specifically enhance the color of your sandstone tiles while preserving the natural texture of the surfaces. By applying the color enhancer, the inherent beauty of your sandstone will be accentuated, resulting in a vibrant and visually appealing appearance. Trust our color enhancer to bring out the best in your sandstone tiles without compromising their texture.
• Q: What is the process of acid etching and what measures can be taken to safeguard sandstone against it?
• A: Acid etching refers to the process where acidic substances come into contact with sandstone tiles, causing them to corrode or be eaten away. Sandstone is particularly vulnerable to acid attacks, and protecting it from such damage can be challenging. The most effective way to safeguard your sandstone tiles is to promptly seal them and clean up any spills immediately. Given the high porosity of stone-based tiles, sealing is essential to provide protection against future acid attacks and liquid spills. By sealing your sandstone tiles, you create a barrier that helps prevent the penetration of acids and other damaging substances, thereby minimizing the risk of etching and preserving the integrity of your sandstone surfaces.
• Q: What is the pricing structure for sealing sandstone tiles?
• A: Tile Cleaners® follow a pricing structure based on the size of each individual sandstone room. You can find a comprehensive price list on the Tile Cleaners® website for your reference. Prior to commencing the work, our team will measure each room separately and discuss the scope of the project with you. This includes confirming the specific tasks to be carried out as well as providing a clear breakdown of all associated costs. We believe in transparent communication to ensure that you are fully informed about the pricing details before we begin the sealing process.
