This eye catching Quarry Tiled Floor was a job we recently done in the pretty little town once known for it’s wool industry called Shepshed, the tiles looked tired looking in need of a brighten up, the sealer was not performing in the high traffic areas leading to soil becoming ingrained into the tile which became a real issue; the floor was now in need of a deep clean and re-seal by a real local professional company like Cleaning Time.
The two main steps of cleaning & restoring a Quarry Tiled Floor is first to clean the floor then 3 days to a week after return to seal the floor, to add more sealer on top of existing leads to a bigger problem further down the line, so a dilution of 1 of our effective products we use to get the best results was applied to the floor, then left to soak for a short while before being scrubbed in with a rotary machine fitted with the black scrubbing supreme pads.
Product we used was a powerful stripper which is safe to use on Quarry Tile it can remove coatings, it also does a remarkable job in cleaning the floor at the same time, in the middle of this I also like to run a stiff brush along the grout lines as the floor pads don’t always reach into the grooves, the soiled cleaning solution was then removed completely using a wet vacuum, the floor thoroughly rinsed with water and then left to dry three days in some floor up to a week, which is needed floor to be dry before sealer can be applied.
When we returned exactly three days after cleaning & restoration took place, I checked for dampness also any ugly spots that would need further attention to detail, once happy started with sealing the Quarry Tiled Floor, on this occasion four coats of our sealer product was applied (The normal is three coats); this sealer product gave a matt finish, brings out the natural colours in the tile floor whilst providing stain protection by soaking deep into the pores of the Quarry tile, preventing soil from becoming ingrained there keeping your floor clean for longer and looking it’s best for period for up to three years depending on usage and maintenance of the floor.
