The difference professional Victorian Minton tile cleaning makes
You may be surprised at how much of an improvement a professional clean and restoration can make to those faded Minton tiles. We have the experience of working with floors in all kinds of conditions, and can often make them to look as if they’ve been freshly installed. If you’re thinking of replacing your old Victorian tiles we would suggest first considering a restoration.
As Minton tiles are wonderfully and unique part of our history, restoration of the original tiles offers a cheaper and some cases, more attractive finish to modern alternatives.
If you’ve recently uncovered some Minton tiles in your home, we’d generally advise getting a professional to take a look. In some cases, carpets or tiling can be glued down to the surface of Victorian floors and an attempt to remove them without the right tools and chemicals can damage the Milton surface beyond repair.
Since colours fade over time and Minton tiles are often very old and finding replacements to any damaged tiles to fit in and properly match the existing Victorian Minton units can be a challenge (much better avoided).
Specialise Restoration, Cleaning and Protection
Once Minton tiles have been uncovered, we have a variety of equipment and modern chemicals we use in order to cut through the years of dust and accumulated dirt on the surface of the tiles. By only using the most appropriate solutions, we’re able to do this without risking damage to the tiles themselves. Once all dust and debris has been removed we would advise an application of a water-resistant seal to the tile.
Milton Tile Sealing and Protection
Again, we carefully choose the most appropriate sealant for your Minton tiles, bringing out the colour of the original tiling as much as possible whilst achieving long-lasting protection. A proper seal is a great value solution since it resists spillages and stains and can preserve its freshly cleaned look for months afterwards. Once restored, the only maintenance required will be occasional dusting and hoovering and a top up of a sealer once a year or so, the rest of the time you can put your feet up and enjoy the look of the beautiful patterns that were being hidden.
