Cement Encaustic tiled hallway cleaning job in Muswell Ave N10

We are busy cleaning these attractive cement encaustic tiles in North London They are a fairly standard design and not too dirty, stained or far gone. The client in this case was very good by ensuring the tiles where adequately sealed after installation . We found the dirt had not penetrated the sealers he applied and so when these where stripped off the tiles where nice and clean underneath . Believe me this is not always the case with cement encaustic tiles!!

This pic just shows me applying the necessary detergent and detail scrubbing the tiles

With this one we had to apply the floor cleaning machine and pads as this proved to be an effective way of cleaning these particular cement tiles. This process of cleaning was decided only after testing to see how it would work.

Just some more ” work in progress” pics as seen in this one where I am applying steam to deep clean the tiles even further

As you can see in the pic above the cleaning result was quite effective. We have some tried and tested methods for cleaning and restoring these tiles when they have become too damaged and stained. This one above was a near perfect result as hallway tiles get less traffic etc, however in the case of shower rooms and high traffic areas with much staining we do struggle to get them perfect.
