Sandstone tile cleaning service in Cheshire
Sandstone is a unique and striking flooring option, adding a warm, rustic charm to both indoor and outdoor spaces. Formed from compressed sand, which contains a mix of rock fragments like quartz and feldspar, sandstone comes in a variety of colours, including brown, red, yellow, and cream. Each shade requires its own care and attention to highlight its distinctive hues, and that’s where our expert sandstone tile cleaning service in Cheshire comes in.
At Tile & Stone Medic Cheshire, we specialise in professional restoration for all types of sandstone tiles. Whether for indoor or outdoor surfaces, we’re committed to restoring and enhancing the beauty of your sandstone floors.
How We Clean Sandstone Tile Floors
Each type of flooring presents its own challenges, and our cleaning methods are tailored to address the specific needs of the stone and its level of wear. When restoring sandstone tiles, our process generally includes the following steps:
- Surface Dirt Removal: We begin by removing any surface dirt to ensure deeper cleaning can be effective.
- Specialised Cleaning Solutions: We then apply specially formulated cleaning products that penetrate the stone to loosen embedded dirt.
- Thorough Wash & Neutralisation: After the cleaning solution has had time to work, we wash the tiles thoroughly and neutralise the floor to remove any remaining cleaning agents.
- Damage Repair: We address any small chips or cracks that may interfere with the polishing or sealing process.
- Polishing & Sealing: Once the floor is clean and repaired, we move on to polishing and sealing. This can be customised to your preference, whether you prefer a matte or high-gloss finish. We then apply specialised sealants to protect and enhance the appearance of your tiles.
With years of experience restoring various tiled floors, Tile & Stone Medic Cheshire takes pride in delivering exceptional craftsmanship every time.

Maintaining Sandstone Floors
The final step in the process—applying a sealant—is especially important for sandstone due to its porous nature. Without proper sealing, sandstone can easily become discoloured or damaged from spills. Keeping a strong seal on your sandstone floor is essential for maintaining its beautiful appearance over time. Since the sealant naturally wears down with use, we recommend reapplying it at least once a year to continue protecting the tiles.
When selecting cleaning products for sandstone, it’s crucial to be cautious. Harsh or improperly formulated chemicals can cause significant damage to the tiles. If you’re unsure about what products to use, don’t hesitate to ask our cleaning technicians for expert advice.
