Testimonials

My mother's tiles were old and ugly, as she has been living in the same house her entire life without ever really taking care of her tiles. I called Tile Cleaners to get advice on what to do with them. They came to her house the next day to have a look at my mum's tiles. I am very satisfied with how patient and highly professional you were with my mother. I am sorry I couldn't be there when you arrived, and I am really impressed by how you managed to explain everything to my mom and help her out. Thank you for doing a great job.

I have several different freshly laid tiles in my new house. All pathways have stone tiles and there are marble tiles in the bathrooms and porcelain in the kitchen. I needed to get them sealed and was not sure if it was possible to seal them all. I contacted Tile Cleaners because my dad recommended them. He had a similar situation in his house and was very happy with the job Tile Cleaners had done. I was very worried about my tiles since they were brand new and very expensive. Tile Cleaners team were very patient with me, explaining how they were going to apply the sealer on different types of tiles, what sealer they would use, how long it would last for and advised me on how to take care of my tiles. I called Tile Cleaners a few times confirming details, asking for prices, making sure they could to the job during the weekend etc. The guys were amazingly patient and helpful. When I had gathered all the information I wanted, I was ready to go ahead. The work done by Tile Cleaners actually took less time than what it took me looking for information about it. Sorry for the pain I caused, and again thank you.

We got our tiles more than 25 years ago. We were told that we had a solvent sealer on our tiles, which apparently most companies wouldn't be able to strip off. However we rang a couple of places to check them out. No luck. A friend of mine recommended Tile Cleaners. We rang the guys and they agreed to have a look the next day. We decided to go ahead with the job after getting a satisfactory quote. Tile Cleaners team stripped and resealed our old tiles. We are very grateful for your help guys. Thank you again.

Sealing Concrete

Sealed concrete is easier to maintain and will resist staining. The first step towards preventing stains on your concrete is to treat it with a deep penetrating, impregnating sealer. Tile Cleaners® are proud to be approved applicators of Australia's excellent Deepshield™ range of deep impregnating, penetrating sealers. Concrete surfaces can be highly porous and easily absorb liquids and stains from everyday spills, wear and tear. Sealing helps repel stains on the concretes surface, giving you time to wipe them away before they have a chance to cause permanent damage. As a raw product it is always recommended that concrete flooring be sealed immediately after installation; a professional tile cleaner with a thorough knowledge of the different sealers available as well as their application should be used.

Mount Helen's Tile Cleaners® offer a complete concrete cleaning and sealing service for both commercial and domestic premises.

Two main sealing options exist for concrete tiles

  • Deep Penetrating Impregnating Sealer

    • (Transparent Finish/Colour Enhancing Finish)

  • Topical Sealer

    • (Gloss/Satin/Matte Finish)

A deep penetrating impregnating sealer protects concrete from water and oil based stains by chemically reacting with the surface pores using nano-technology to create a breathable protective barrier. An impregnating sealer protects the concrete surface from absorbing stains while also resulting in cleaning and maintenance becoming much easier. Australia's Deepshield™ range of impregnating water based sealer's, offer long term benefits lasting for up to 10 years while Deepshield™ Gold, based on the latest fluoro-bond technology and lasts for up to 15 years. A penetrating impregnating transparent sealer enters the pores of your concrete surface and once cured, will not change the look of the concrete surface. A penetrating colour enhancing sealer is designed to enhance and enrich the look of concrete surfaces.

Tile Cleaners® are the experts at applying all varieties of sealer and will ensure your concrete looks its absolute best. Tile Cleaners® experienced technicians can apply a topical sealer when especially required to create a high gloss, satin sheen or matte finish to your surfaces. Topical sealer is also helpful in situations where the old solvent based sealer can not be completely removed or when required to hide certain types of damage. Topical sealer's typically have a life expectancy of around 3 years.

You can easily test how porous your concrete is by applying a drop of water to the surface and watching how the water is absorbed by the concrete. You can then see how any type of water based stain can be absorbed by the concrete surface.

When our technicians are satisfied that we have achieved the best results possible- preferably by returning the concrete to its original state, then we allow a sufficient drying time before applying between 2-4 coats of our specialist concrete floor tile seal.

Frequently Asked Questions


Concrete sealers typically have a relatively quick drying time, and they are often touch-dry within approximately 4 hours. This applies to both penetrating sealers and topical sealers. Penetrating sealers usually reach full curing within 24 hours, while topical sealers may take up to 48 hours to fully dry. It is important to allow sufficient time for the sealer to dry and cure properly before subjecting the concrete surface to heavy use or exposure to water. By following the recommended drying times, you can ensure the effectiveness and longevity of the concrete sealer.

Sealing concrete surfaces is essential due to various factors that can cause deterioration and a decline in their appearance. Concrete is exposed to traffic, UV rays, moisture, rain, chemicals, and impurities like oil, gas, grease, acids, and salt, which can lead to common issues such as cracking, pitting, scaling, spalling, delamination, dusting, discoloration, efflorescence, and salt damage. By applying a concrete sealer, you can protect the surface and enjoy numerous maintenance benefits. High-quality sealers like Australia's Deepshield™ deep impregnating sealers provide effective protection and help maintain the integrity and aesthetics of the concrete surfaces.

No, it is not possible to apply penetrating concrete sealers over existing topical sealers. Topical sealers create a membrane or film on the surface of the concrete, forming a barrier that prevents the penetrating sealers from effectively absorbing into the concrete. Therefore, before applying a penetrating sealer, it is necessary to remove any existing topical sealer to ensure proper penetration and adhesion of the new sealer. This preparation step ensures that the penetrating sealer can effectively provide the desired protection and enhance the durability of the concrete surface.

To maintain the condition of your polished concrete, it is recommended to clean it using a pH-neutral cleaner. This type of cleaner is gentle and does not damage the polished surface. After applying the pH-neutral cleaner, rinse the area with clean water to remove any residue. In case of spills, it is advisable to promptly clean them up using clean water. Additionally, to eliminate dust and keep the surface clean, using a microfiber mop is recommended. This method of cleaning helps to preserve the polished appearance of the concrete while ensuring that it remains free from dirt and debris.

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.

You will know it's time to have your concrete floors stripped, cleaned and sealed once they begin to appear dull or "matte" even after you have given them an efficient regular clean. If you notice that your concrete surfaces are staining easily, it's a good indication that your previous sealer is wearing off and your concrete floors will need to be resealed immediately to prevent permanent staining.

Yes, the concrete stripping and sealing process conducted by Tile Cleaners® is safe. Our tile cleaning services prioritize the use of high-quality, water-based products that are safe for your concrete surfaces. Additionally, we utilize advanced cleaning machinery and techniques to ensure effective cleaning without compromising the integrity or safety of the concrete. You can have peace of mind knowing that our professional team is dedicated to providing a safe and efficient stripping and sealing service for your concrete surfaces.

At Tile Cleaning, we take great care to minimize mess during the stripping and sealing process of terracotta tiles. Our approach involves using high-quality, non-solvent-based stripping and sealing products, which are designed to ensure a clean and tidy process. These products are specifically selected to minimize the risk of damaging your floors, walls, or skirting boards. Our team of technicians is trained to handle the process with utmost care, ensuring that your surfaces are protected throughout. In most cases, non-solvent-based strippers and techniques are used, which effectively achieve excellent results without causing any harm. However, in rare circumstances where solvent-based strippers are necessary, additional precautions may be taken. This could involve temporarily vacating the premises for up to 48 hours to ensure safety and provide optimal protection. Rest assured that our experienced technicians will take all necessary measures to maintain a clean and damage-free environment during the stripping and sealing process.

Tile Cleaning places a strong emphasis on the safety of your family during the cleaning process. They ensure that only non-toxic finishing agents are used, eliminating the presence of any potentially harmful substances or ingredients. Tile Cleaning takes great care in selecting cleaning products, specifically excluding any ingredients that could pose health risks. This commitment to safety not only helps preserve the condition of your stone tiles but also reflects Tile Cleaning's dedication to prioritizing the overall health and safety of your household. By choosing Tile Cleaning, you can have peace of mind knowing that the products used in the cleaning process are free from toxic ingredients.

Stripping concrete floors is essential if you desire the cleanest and most visually appealing results. By entrusting the task to professionals, they can effectively remove as much of the old sealer as possible. This initial step paves the way for a thorough cleaning process before applying a new sealer. The end result is a fresh and immaculate polished concrete floor that showcases its natural beauty to the fullest extent. With professional stripping, cleaning, and sealing, your concrete floors can achieve their optimal appearance and maintain their pristine condition.

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.

When our professional team arrives to reseal your polished concrete floors, they will provide you with a detailed explanation of the entire process, ensuring complete transparency. The process begins with stripping any existing sealer that may have been applied previously. Next, the polished concrete is thoroughly cleaned and neutralized to eliminate any dust, residue, or contaminants that could interfere with the new sealer. Once the floor is dry, a new sealer is applied and allowed to set. This sealing process not only rejuvenates the appearance of the concrete, making it look new again, but also provides essential protection and makes maintenance easier. By following this comprehensive process, our team ensures that your polished concrete floors receive optimal treatment, resulting in a refreshed and well-protected surface.

The recommended frequency for sealing polished concrete floors depends on factors such as the type of sealer used and the amount of foot traffic the floors are exposed to. Australia's Deepshield™ range of deep impregnating water-based sealers, for instance, offers long-term benefits, with Deepshield™ Gold providing protection for up to 15 years. On the other hand, topical sealers typically have a lifespan of around 3 years. However, it is important to note that high foot traffic or severe weather conditions, especially for outdoor concrete, can potentially shorten the lifespan of the sealer. Additionally, the condition of the surface plays a role in determining when resealing is necessary. If you notice patchy areas or the floors are staining easily, it may be a sign that resealing is needed. Feel free to contact us for further assistance and any inquiries you may have regarding sealing your polished concrete floors.

Not sealing concrete floors can lead to various potential consequences. Without proper sealing, the surface of the concrete is susceptible to damage. Spills of oily or harsh substances can penetrate the pores of the concrete, resulting in permanent stains that cannot be removed through regular domestic cleaning methods. By not sealing your concrete surfaces, you risk permanent staining and difficulty in maintaining the fresh look and feel of the floors. Sealing the concrete provides a protective barrier, preventing such staining and accidental damage in the future. It helps to preserve the appearance of the surfaces, keeping them in their best condition for a longer period and making maintenance easier and more convenient.

The optimal time to seal your concrete is right after installation to provide immediate protection against staining and damage. As for determining if your concrete surfaces require sealing, there are a couple of indicators to look out for. Firstly, if you notice patchy areas on the floor where the sealant has worn off or is uneven, it is a clear sign that resealing is needed. Additionally, if your concrete is becoming more susceptible to staining and is no longer repelling liquids as effectively as before, it is a good indication that it is time to apply a fresh coat of sealer. By addressing these signs promptly, you can ensure that your concrete remains adequately protected and maintains its optimal appearance.

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.

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.

To maintain the fresh and new appearance of your concrete surfaces, Tile Cleaners® recommends regular cleaning using a mild detergent. This weekly cleaning routine helps remove dirt and grime from the concrete surface, keeping it looking clean and well-maintained. It is important to note that strong detergents with high acidity or alkalinity can potentially affect the sealer applied to the concrete. Therefore, it is strongly advised to use mild detergents and pH-neutral substances when cleaning the surfaces. By following these maintenance guidelines, you can effectively preserve the pristine condition of your concrete and ensure its long-lasting beauty.

Tile Cleaning applies a pricing structure based on the square meterage of each separate room when providing stripping and sealing services for concrete surfaces. You can find a detailed price list on the Tile Cleaning website, allowing you to review and assess the costs associated with the desired services. Prior to commencing the work, the team will conduct individual room measurements, confirm the scope of work, and provide a comprehensive cost breakdown to ensure transparency and clarity. By following this approach, Tile Cleaning aims to provide a clear understanding of the pricing structure and deliver accurate cost estimates to their valued customers.

To accurately measure the size of a concreted area, we recommend measuring each area separately. The process is straightforward: multiply the width of the area by its length. For example, if you have a room that is 3 meters long and 2 meters wide, the total square meterage would be calculated as 3 meters multiplied by 2 meters, resulting in 6 square meters in total. By measuring each concreted area individually using this method, you can ensure accurate calculations of square meterage for pricing and other purposes.

Tile Cleaning provides assistance with moving furniture during the floor sealing process. Their team of dedicated technicians is available to help with the relocation of furniture items that can be reasonably managed by one person, such as those with wheels or lightweight furniture like tables and chairs. However, it is important to keep in mind that while Tile Cleaning takes precautions to protect your belongings, they cannot be held responsible for any damages that may occur during the furniture moving process. To ensure the safety of valuable or fragile items, it is recommended to either relocate them to a secure area or properly secure them before the technicians arrive. By taking these necessary precautions, you can help ensure the safety of your furniture and minimize the risk of potential damage while the floor sealing process is being carried out.

To prepare for the concrete sealing process, it is recommended to remove all furniture and items from the floor area. By ensuring that the floor is clear and free of any obstacles, it allows the Tile Cleaning team to access the entire surface easily and carry out the sealing process efficiently. Removing furniture and items beforehand also helps to protect them from any potential damage during the sealing process. By following this simple preparation step, you can help ensure a smooth and effective concrete sealing experience.
