BEAUTIFUL VICTORIAN TILE FLOOR CLEANING AND SEALING IN BREDBURY, STOCKPORT

Quality Tile Care • 1 February 2019

Quarry Style Victorian Floor Restoration in Bredbury, Stockport, SK1

Victorian Tiles Cleaning

We got called out to Stockport , as our customer had just bought a house and dicovered this beautiful VictorianTiled Floor underneath the carpet in Bredbury. Bredbury is a suburban town in the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport.

This was a funny floor. From Distance it looked like a Quarry Tile Floor but on closer inspection it was actually Victorian Tile Floor. This was a positive suprise to me as you can use more robust cleaning methods on Victorian Tiles than Quarry. We agreed on the price over email, so when I first saw these tiles I started with cleaning. Bad news was, all the white stuff you can see on pictures, was cement.

There was actually more cement then I was anticipating. For cleaning these tiles I used our 200 grit diamond burnishing pad fitted to rotary machine, I couldn't have used this method with old quarry floor. I used water as lubricant, this way you can burnish with ease and not create any dust. I had to do couple of applications on this tile floor and then get on my knees to clean the places where rotary machine and 200 grit pad didn't get.
After doing the burnishing clean, I also went over these victoriantiles with our acid based grout cleaner. Acid help me to remove the last cement or grout haze left on the tile floor. I rinsed the floor several times after I was done with the big clean and removed all the water with wet vacuum.
At the end of the day I was finished with cleaning, so I left the tile floor to dry for couple of days.

On my return, first thing I did was checking the floor with my damp tester and discovered some damp in corners. I managed to dry out the damp areas with my heat gun and then prepared myself for sealing this beautiful victorian tile floor.
For SealingI used 2 coats of colour enhancing impregnating sealer. Impregnating sealer really brough up the natural colours of these tiles, it also protects the tiles from inside out.
Next I topped the impregnating sealer with 4 coats of our water based topical film forming sealer. This gave the wow effect with the glossy finish it provided. Topical sealer is also great for everyday tiled floor maintenance as it leaves a really smooth surface.

Outdoor porcelain tile patios add elegance and functionality to any home, creating the perfect space for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying the beauty of nature. However, patios are continually exposed to weather, foot traffic, and daily wear and tear. This leads to a gradual buildup of grime, algae, and mud that can make the surface dull, slippery, and unsafe. Recently, Quality Tile Care took on a project in the lovely town of Alderley Edge, Cheshire, where we transformed a porcelain tiled patio back to its original glory with our thorough, professional deep cleaning service. The Initial State: A Patio in Need of Serious Cleaning The Alderley Edge patio had not been deep cleaned for quite some time, and the impact was evident. Mud, algae, and dirt were layered across the tiles, turning them dangerously slippery. With the goal of restoring the patio’s look and ensuring its safety, the homeowner reached out to us. At Quality Tile Care, we offer top-tier tile and grout cleaning services for both residential and commercial spaces across Cheshire, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Derbyshire, and Liverpool, including locations like Altrincham, Stockport, Wilmslow, Knutsford, and beyond.
SHOWER BATH TILE, SILICONE SEALANT AND GROUT RESTORATION. COVERING MANCHESTER; Liverpool, Lancashire
by Quality Tile Care 26 September 2024
At Quality Tile Care , we recently took on a shower bath restoration project that turned out to be a perfect example of how professional tile and stone cleaning can breathe new life into your bathroom without the need for costly replacements. If you’ve been living with discoloured grout lines, dirty tiles, or mouldy silicone, there’s a more affordable and effective solution. Read on to see how we restored this shower bath to its former glory! The Problem: Dirty Grout and Mouldy Sealant In this project, the shower bath area had been suffering from the common issues faced by many homeowners: Dirty and discoloured grout lines that detract from the overall appearance of the bathroom. Mouldy silicone sealant around the bath and in the corners of the shower area, which is not only unsightly but can also lead to bigger issues like water damage if left untreated. These are typical signs of wear and tear in bathrooms, especially in areas exposed to high levels of moisture. While it might be tempting to consider a full replacement, we know that expert cleaning and restoration can be just as effective—and much more cost-efficient.
