We were called to provide a quote for a slate floor cleaning & sealing job in Narberth, Pembrokeshire. The slate floor was originally sealed around 15 years ago but had now deteriorated with dirt getting trapped within the old seal.
During the quote visit, we surveyed the floor and conducted a small test patch to show the client how it would look and to also work out the best method to complete the slate floor restoration.
After sending over a quote which was accepted, A date was then arranged to come back to complete the slate floor stripping, cleaning & sealing works.
On the first day of the restoration, we began by masking up the area and opening the windows for ventilation due to the strength of chemicals needed to strip away the old seal.
After the old seal had been stripped away we deep cleaned the tiles & grout and then thoroughly rinsed the whole floor, restoring it back to its natural state. The slate floor was then left to dry out overnight, ready for sealing the next day.
The following morning, the floor was tested with a damp meter to ensure the tiles had dried out
sufficiently before sealing. The floor was then sealed with 2 coats of satin wax. The wax enhanced the colour of the slate, leaving a nice sheen. The wax will also make the floor much easier to maintain and can be self maintained.
We were called to quote on a large marble floor polishing project in Swansea. The marble floor had become etched due to acidic spillages and needed removing before being polished back to a gloss finish.
After speaking to the owners on the phone, we arranged a time for me to come and take a
closer look. After completing a test area to show we could restore the marble floor back to its former glory a quote was sent and accepted. A date was then arranged to come back to complete the works
On the first day of the marble floor restoration, we began with a deep clean of the area to remove any residues and to also clean up the grout. Over the next couple of days, using our diamond polishing system. we removed the etching and polished the marble to a gloss finish. To add more luster we finished it off with a polishing powder which gave the floor a really high gloss finish.
The new owners of this property contacted us to see if there was anything we could do with their quarry tiled floor. They really liked the character of the old quarry tiles but no matter what they tried, they couldn't remove the ingrained dirt.
After a phone call, we arranged a time for me to come and take a closer look. I surveyed the floor, conducted a test patch to work out the best method to restore the floor and sent over a quote which was accepted. A date was then arranged to come back to complete the works
On the day of the clean, the cleaning solution was applied to the floor and left to work into the ingrained dirt while i scraped away bits of paint & plaster. I then used a rotary machine to agitate the dirt before collecting with a wet vac. After a final rinse with clean water, the quarry tiles were left to dry out overnight, ready for sealing the next day.
The following morning, the floor was tested with a damp meter to ensure the tiles had dried out
sufficiently. The floor was then sealed with 1 coat of and impregnator seal to fill the pores of the
tiles and then finished with a couple of coats of a satin wax. The wax enhanced the colour of the
tiles, leaving a nice sheen. The wax will also make the Quarry tiles much easier to maintain
