Sealing stone and tiled floors
Following our intensive professional cleaning of your stone floors it is advisable to have
them sealed, as part of the process we will mostly finish by sealing with our standard
penetrating seal, this is recommended for light usage areas, will give protection from water based spills and help make maintaining the floor easier, this will last up to 2 years under
normal conditions, it is recommended that floors which are heavily used or are prone to spillage and soiling such as food preparation areas are protected with our premium sealing products, these premium sealing products will last between 5 to 15 years under normal conditions depending on seal type, our premium seals will give optimum pr
otection on all stone types. Unsealed high porosity stone floors such as slate sandstone terracotta and Victorian floor tiles can very quickly stained and heavily soiled if not sealed making cleaning and maintenance difficult!
Why Seal?
Sealers protect by putting a barrier between contaminants and the surface of the stone floor. They provide on-going stain resistance and prolong the life of the surface and make home maintenance easier. Click on the image to the right for more information.
Seal types
Penetrating seals
These are designed to absorb into the stone and grout and not alter the appearance giving a natural look.
Uses
All natural stone (such as granite, limestone, marble, slate, and travertine) porcelain, quarry, Saltillo, terracotta, cement pavers, masonry surfaces, and other porous tile and grout where a natural look is desired.
Enhancing seals
These give optimum protection and enhance the stone floors appearance, a penetrating sealer formulated to darken, enrich, and highlight the character and beauty of unsealed natural stone. It rejuvenates the colour and improves the appearance of worn and weathered stone. It also effectively seals and darkens the colour of grout joints. Also a very good sealer on Victorian geometric tiles, Minton floors and Quarry tiles, will enrich and bring out the colours as well as giving long lasting protection from soiling.
Topical seals
These are a specially formulated water-based blend of acrylic polymers that provides both a stain resistant surface seal and a durable finish, can be satin look, low-sheen or high gloss finish,

Stone and tile guide
Limestone
A sedimentary rock composed of the mineral calcite (calcium carbonate) or dolomite. The primary source of calcite is usually marine organisms. Regularly used to make concrete and is an excellent building stone for use in humid regions.
Porcelain Tile
Porcelain tiles are formed under extremely high pressure and fired at very high temperatures. This make these tiles much denser and stronger than the common glazed ceramic tiles so they are ideal for entryways, corridors and other high traffic areas. Ideal for both interior and exterior applications.
Slate
A metamorphic stone that is characterized by a sheet-like structure with parallel cleavage, which permits it to be split readily into thin, smooth sheets. It is composed of clay, quartz, and mica and comes in a multitude of colors.
Travertine
A form of limestone distinguished by layered structures of pores and cavities producing an open texture. It is formed from calcium carbonate that is deposited from the water of mineral springs (especially hot springs) or streams holding lime in solution.
Terrazzo
A colorful flooring material made of marble or stone chips embedded in a cement or epoxy binder. After the floor has hardened it is ground and polished to a smooth and durable finish. Traditionally, terrazzo floors are poured and set on site, but manufactured terrazzo tiles are also available.
Sandstone
A sedimentary stone primarily composed of grains of quartz sands cemented with silica, iron oxide, or calcium carbonate. These cementing materials make one sandstone behave very differently from another. Sandstones containing silica are quite hard, strong, and decay resistant, whereas those containing calcite resemble
Quarry Tile terracotta
Tile made from shale, clay, or earth, resulting in an unglazed tile with color throughout. Usually in squares and often terra-cotta in color. Quarry tiles are used for both floors and walls and are normally used indoors.
limestone in their susceptibility to acid damage, and those containing clay absorb water and deteriorate more easily.
Ceramic Tile Tiles that are made by shaping a nonmetallic mineral, such as clay, and then fired at a high temperature, which gives the tile its hardness. The most common type is glazed ceramic tiles made by applying liquid glass to the body of the tile and firing at high temperatures. The glazing becomes hard and non-porous leaving a surface that is scratch resistant, fire resistant, and easy to clean.
