PORCELAIN TILE & GROUT CLEANING IRELAND
As with all tiles its important to under stand the difference between Porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles and to be able to tell the difference as well on inspection. Although similar in many ways they are different tiles and should be treated as different tiles.
POLISHED PORCELAIN.
Where the tile and grout cleaning company has to be careful is with polished porcelain tiles as in we have to use a slightly less aggressive way to clean these as not to scratch or damage to polished finish in any way. So although our seven point program still exsits for this process, we just use slightly less aggressive brushes and cleaning agents.
SEALING PORCELIAN FLOOR TILE.
In some cases Porcelian floor tile need to be sealed.
We can carry out this process with or range of impregnator sealers that are design to sit just below the surface of the tile protecting it from spills and also making it easier to clean and keep clean.
