This was no easy task, there were layers of seal applied over dirt. In places the grouting had failed and the grout had fallen out and been replaced with seal and dirt.
We began with the application of some of our chosen strippers. These were applied and with the use of appropriate pads and a Carbide brush on a rotary machine the seals were broken down and extracted, Once the seals were removed the floor was given a through deep clean to remove the remaining dirt and flush any contaminants from the Terracotta floor. The floor was then left to dry out before we re sealed the floor to keep it looking great.

Floor Protection.
Terracotta flooring can be very porous. Therefore to keep the floor looking its best we would recommend protecting it. The client was looking for the natural beauty and character of the floor to be preserved. They did not want any artificial gloss and wanted a Matt finish. We opted for an impregnator to provide liquid protection and repel spills whilst keeping the appearance of the floor natural. We applied multiple coats to provide great protection on what can be an easy tile to stain and mark in a Kitchen environment.
