Tile Stripping and Sealing Kwinana Beach - Perth

Sealing keeps most stains suspended at the surface, creating a barrier that provides protection against chemical attack, deterioration and contamination. Sealing is the first important step towards protecting your surfaces against stains.

Two Main Sealing Options

• Deep Penetrating Impregnating Sealer

(Transparent Finish/Colour Enhancing Finish)

• Topical Sealer (Film Forming)

(Gloss/Satin/Matte Finish)

A deep penetrating impregnating sealer protects tile and grout from water and oil based stains by chemically reacting with the surface pores using nano-technology, creating a breathable protective barrier. An impregnating sealer protects the surface and grout 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 with Deepshield GOLD® based on the latest fluoro-bond technology lasting for up to 15 years.

Deepshield™ penetrating breathable water based sealers contain tiny nano particles designed to penetrate the micro pore structure of stone, tile and grout. The sealer is absorbed deep into the pores and once the water (carrier) evaporates, the nano particles remain, sealing the micro pores and keeping moisture and stain carrying substances out.

Tile Cleaners® are experts at applying all types of sealer and will ensure your surfaces look their 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 have a life expectancy of 3-5 years.

You can easily test how porous your surfaces are by applying a drop of water and watching how the it is absorbed. You can then see how any potential water based stain can be absorbed by the tile surface and grout.

Water based sealer's and solvent-based sealer's can both be used, however unless absolutely required for a specific reason, we always recommend applying a water based sealer that doesn't produce harmful fumes during application and removal. Water based sealers are easier to apply and remove and also require less drying time.

It is important to ensure the correct water based sealer is applied to your tiles, which will also depend on whether they are indoors or outdoors as most sealer's will not last long outside due to being designed for internal use. If your tiles are outdoors, it is important to use a water based sealer that is specifically designed for outdoor surfaces

There are two types of impregnating clear sealer, water based sealer & solvent based. In the past solvent based sealers were more widely used as they used to absorb deeper into the surface and grout and would also last longer. Today however, thanks to new technological advancements, it is recommended only to use water based sealer's, which last much longer and cause less potential damage to health and property.

Solvent based products are more difficult to apply and can create major problems when applied incorrectly as they are very hard to remove. Tile Cleaners® recommend our clients apply a long lasting water based sealer such as a quality product from Australia's Deepshield® range of sealer's to their tile and grout. Topical sealer's (film forming) are still widely used, however these older style sealer's can trap moisture in the stone and make the surface slippery when wet. When a topical sealer wears in higher traffic areas, the entire surface usually needs to be stripped and re-sealed.

It is very important to ensure that tiles achieve their cleanest possible condition prior to being sealed. This will protect the appearance of the tile, and importantly ensure that there won't be any dirt, stains or other debris caught under the layer of sealant.

To provide the best possible protection from oil and water-based stains; to maintain the look and slip resistance of your surfaces and to prevent damaging moisture from being trapped within the tile, it is recommended to seal your surfaces with a high quality, invisible, fully breathable impregnating sealer.

Have your vinyl surfaces previously been stripped and sealed and have since lost their lustre, beginning to look dull and have become harder to clean? If so Tile Cleaners® technicians re-strip & seal your vinyl to ensure your surface remains protected and is brought to life.

Vinyl has always been a popular choice as it boasts excellent qualities - it's durable and affordable, looks appealing and is fairly easy to maintain. Of course, one of the greatest things about vinyl flooring is that it also comes in a great deal of colours and patterns and ultimately, there is no look that cannot be mimicked by vinyl flooring.

If you are considering stripping and sealing your vinyl floor, you will need to hire a floor restoration professional that is experienced with vinyl restoration. One of our technicians may be required to visit your site in order to assess your requirements and give an accurate quote before any work is carried out. At Tile Cleaners® our technicians are licensed and insured, experienced and trained to our extremely high standards.

Cleaning slate tiles can present some difficult challenges due to the many varieties of slate and the fact that slate tiles are very often sealed with topical water or solvent based sealing products.

If your slate tile has a topical sealer, this will need to be stripped before any cleaning process can begin. If the topical sealer is not stripped it can result in white, flaky patches occurring on the surface. It is also helpful to find out the type of sealer or wax that the floor was previously sealed with to be able to use the right product for stripping.

There are two types of impregnating clear sealer, water based sealer & solvent based. In the past solvent based sealers were more widely used as they would absorb deeper into the slate and grout and also lasted longer. Today however, thanks to new technological advancements, it is recommended only to use water based sealers, that last much longer and cause less potential damage to health and property.

Solvent based products are more difficult to apply and can create major problems when applied incorrectly as they are very hard to remove. Tile Cleaners® recommend our clients apply a long lasting water based sealer to their slate tiles and grout. Topical sealer's (glossy plastic coating over the top of the slate) are still used on slate, but these older style sealers can trap moisture in the stone and make the surface slippery when wet. When a topical sealer wears in higher traffic areas, the entire surface usually needs to be stripped and re-sealed.

It is very important to ensure that tiles achieve their cleanest possible condition prior to being sealed. This will protect the appearance of the tile, and importantly ensure that there won't be any dirt, stains or other debris caught under the layer of sealant.

Solvent stripping is only required in extreme cases, for example when efflorescence or dirt beneath the old solvent sealer needs to be removed.

Toxic fumes from solvents can be dangerous to health and property and the area must be vacated for 48 hours.
