Quality Tile Care • Jun 25, 2019

Victorian Hallway Tiles Restoring Back To Best In Didsbury, Manchester

On this occasion we got called out to Didsburyin Manchesterto see what can be done with this beautiful 125 years old Victorian Tile Floor Hallway. Didsburyis rich with victorian history. During the Victorian expansion of Manchester in 19th century, Didsbury developed as a prosperous settlement with many Victorian mansions and beautiful semi-detached Victorian houses.
On arrival we completed a cleaning tester for our customer and explained our work process step by step. Customer was happy with what she saw and heard, so she gave us a green light for the floor tiles cleaning and sealing work.

Dirty Victorian Hallway Restoring

Victorian Floor Tiles Cleaning

For cleaning this beautiful Victorian Floor we used our multi-purpose stripper formulated with a long dwell-time to remove most coatings and sealers, epoxy grout haze, urethane coatings, synthetic finishes, adhesives and paints. It also draws out ingrained stains and removes heavy grease build-up. Product got sprayed on floor and left to dwell for about 15 minutes. This was followed up by carefully scrubbing the Victorian tile floor with scrubbing pad fitted to rotary machine. After scrubbing the floor with machine, we had to go over the edges with our hand scrubbing pads, as we didn't want to ruin these feshly painted skirting boards.
After chemical cleaning we used our 200 grit diamond burnishing pad to remove any of the last sealer left on/in floor and grind off any ingrained dirt from tiles. We used some water as a lubricant and removed all soiled water from floor with wet vacuum. As always machine doesn't do all the work so we had to get on hands and knees and used our diamond hand pad to go over places where machine didn't reach - corners and edges.
When we were finished with victorian tiles cleaning we did an acid application to prevent any mineral salt deposits efflorescence coming through the tile floor and then left the floor to dry till the next day.

On the return, we checked the floor with our damp tester and dried few damp areas with our heavy duty heat gun. All prepared, we started sealing.
For sealing the victorian tiles we used colour enhancing impregnating sealer, which is a solvent based tile colour enhancing sealer that provides durable surface protection as well as allowing the surface to breath.
This victorian floor took 4 generous coats of the sealer. After each coat we left it to dwell in for about 15 minutes and then polished off any excess sealer from tiles with soft cotton cloths.
