Synthetic Hard Floor Cleaning Services
We carry out high level restoration, cleaning and sealing services for many different types of hard floor, including our specialities, natural stone and ceramic tiles. We also carry out restoration and maintenance for a wide range of man made hard flooring. The work that we carry out is always shaped and directed to the specific requirements of your surface, whether it requires serious attention to treat to damage, or just keeping it fully sealed and protected from wear.
We love working with natural materials, but we’re also capable of restoring and treating linoleum, vinyl and laminate synthetic floors. Often work can be completed quickly, since synthetic materials are generally simpler to treat than natural ones. If your synthetic floor is damaged we will take a look to assess the seriousness and carry out our repairs where possible. Bear in mind if the synthetic floor is seriously damaged it may need replacing, but often we are able to successfully add years of life back to tried and worn flooring at a cost far cheaper than an entire replacement.
Our experience
We are proud of our comprehensive knowledge of floor types. Building on our many years of experience in the industry, we use our knowledge of all of the different materials used for hard flooring to deliver outstanding results. Because we’ve worked on many different surfaces we’re able to quickly identify the best cleaning or repair solutions in any given situation. We work quickly and efficiently, but without cutting corners. Using poor quality or inappropriate cleaning solutions can, at worst, damage certain types of flooring. With Tile & Stone Medic you can be confident you’ll get the benefit of only the best solutions.
The finish
We can also polish and buff synthetic floors to restore their shine. If your vinyl or linoleum is beginning to show its age this is perhaps the most simple, cost-effective way of returning it to good as new. Depending on how you would like your floor to look we can polish to a high sheen finish or a matt one. We achieve different finishes using a range of techniques and sealers, we can work with you to select products to tailor the finish to your specification, depending on what your floor type allows.

FAQs
The process we carry out will depend on your specific floor and the use that it gets. There will be variations for different materials and the finish that you wish to achieve. The process will also be impacted by the full scale of work that we carry out, for example which types of cleaning and restoration are being performed. It is not unusual to apply several layers of sealant if this is necessary and appropriate.
Firstly, a floor should always be sealed when it is first laid. Get in touch with us straight away if this hasn’t been carried out already. It will also need periodic sealing in order to protect the floor on an ongoing basis. How often sealing is required depends on a number of factors such as the specific material used for your flooring and the kind of use it has to survive. For example, a bathroom with natural tiles that is frequently exposed to water may require sealing more often than porcelain tiles in a kitchen. Frequent maintenance, such as sweeping and hoovering up the dust and grit that erodes floors when trodden on can help. Once the sealant is worn away, not only will scratches be more likely, the risk of staining or permanent damage from liquids is drastically increased as there is no protective layer to prevent absorption. If in doubt get in touch with our team of friendly technicians who can discuss your needs.
