Tile Sealing in Calgary

Whether you’re a new homeowner or you’ve just completed a big project of installing tile floors in your home, you may be wondering whether grout and tile sealing in Calgary is necessary. Learn what the purpose of tile and grout sealing is, why it’s important, and how to find a great service provider for tile and grout sealing in Calgary.

What is Tile and Grout Sealing?

For brand-new tile and grout — and as a maintenance strategy for aging tile and grout — tile and grout sealing can go a long way. Whether or not your tile requires sealing will depend on the material of the tile itself. Some tile materials are more porous than others, meaning they can take in stains and liquids more easily. These materials, such as slate and travertine, will need to be sealed.

On the other hand, all grout needs to be sealed. Even if your tile is made from a material that is not porous and won’t require sealing, it is still important to take the steps to have your grout sealed. Grout is made of cement and other materials, which means it takes in liquids very easily as cement is very porous.

For this reason, if grout is not sealed, it can stain much more quickly and can also become a breeding ground for harmful bacteria. When water particles, along with other liquids and dirt, become trapped in the grout, they can result in unhealthy mold and mildew. Proper tile and grout sealing in Calgary is not only important for preserving the appearance of your flooring, but also for promoting the health of your household.

How Often Should Tile and Grout Be Sealed?

Many people assume that once they’ve had new tile and grout installed, it’s sealed and ready to go. In many circumstances, this is not the case! Grout and tile need time to fully set and dry, so some installers will not come back to seal it automatically. Plus, if you’ve performed the tiling job yourself, it’s easy to overlook the manufacturer instructions on sealing your tile and grout.

Once it has fully dried, tile and grout should be sealed after it is installed. This sets your floors up for a longer lifespan, fewer stains, and increased cleanliness overall. After the initial sealing of your tile and grout, the recommended frequency for resealing will vary based on the exact material, your local climate, and the tile’s location and use in your home. For example, tile and grout in areas like bathrooms will need to be sealed more frequently because humidity, water and soap residue will cause the tile and grout sealant to break down more quickly than it would in a dry environment.

In addition, humid environments pose more of a risk to the tile and grout itself once the sealant weakens. One sign that it’s time to seek out a professional service for tile and grout sealing in Calgary is when you notice flaking or pieces of grout breaking off when you try to clean it. This means it’s time to reseal, and may also mean you should reevaluate your cleaning products for future home maintenance.

The Importance of Professional Tile and Grout Sealing

While it may be tempting to try saving money by sealing your tile and grout yourself, it’s crucial to find a professional service for dependable tile and grout sealing in Calgary. Hiring professionals means avoiding costly common mistakes many people make when sealing their own tile and grout.

One common mistake homeowners make is choosing the wrong tile and grout sealant. The right sealant for your flooring will depend on your climate, the exact materials within your floors, and even the manufacturer. While penetrating sealers work best in some cases, membrane-forming sealers are ideal for others. With so many moving parts, it’s best to consult a professional in order to determine the best sealing products for your particular floors.

Another common error is failing to follow a tried and true process when applying the sealant. It’s extremely important to give the tile and grout a deep clean before sealing in order to avoid sealing in stains, dirt, grime, and bacteria along with the grout. Then, sealant must be applied evenly over all of the grout. This is easier said than done and should be left to a skilled hand.
