Slate floor cleaning in Ely

Cleaning a slate floor can sometime be a challenge. See below our slate floor cleaning process.  Have a look at our video and if you need help with your floor, don't hesitate to contact us on 01223 863 632 we will be happy to help.

Our slate floor cleaning process:

1- We inspect your floor: This is to identify any limitations like stain removal, loss of loose grout surrounding surfaces sensitive to cleaning solutions and any other areas that needs consideration before the cleaning starts

2- We protect your walls and furniture: This is to limit overspray on to sensitive areas during the cleaning process. Please note no guarantee can be made that materials that is extremely sensitive to moisture might not show some form of exposure to our cleaning solutions.

3- Dry soil removal: we will remove any dry soil and dirt before any water based cleaning takes place Apply cleaning solution to the floor/wall: This can be by means of sprayer or directly from a container with pre-mixed cleaning solution.

4- Agitation: This is done by means of a rotary cleaning machine or by hand depending on the areas to be cleaned.

5- Rinse: Slurry (Dirt from the floor and cleaning solution mixed together) with our pressurised cleaning equipment. This step allows us to clean areas of your wall or floor that is not reachable with any other form of cleaning (scrubbing)

Sometimes we have to repeat the cleaning process as described above to ensure optimum results.

6- Drying: After the cleaning process has been completed, we will clean up and dry any areas. In cases where stone or tile has a high porosity, drying can take up to 12 hours

7- Sealer: Colour Enhancing Impregnator: it will seal your slate floor and also bring out the natural colours in the slate. Application of a top quality impregnator to the floor is crucial as it greatly reduce the porosity of the tile. The impregnator penetrates below the surface of the tile and grout and act as a repellent for any liquid based spills. This allows the tile to breath.
